Counter-Strike CPL Tournament has $300,000 in prize money
From Valve’s Steam news:
The CPL has announced its 2006 Summer Event, which will include a CS event that offers $300,000 in cash prizes to be distributed to the top 64 teams, with $90,000 going to the winning team. To enter your team, visit www.TheCPL.com/register/.
I’m not quite sure if this is just original Counter-Strike or Counter-Strike Source. I’m kind of dissapointed with the amount too. CS is the biggest online game — by a very large margin. $90,000 for the very top team, split up among the members is about enough for each of them to pay rent for a year.
