Like each player gets around 200k. What do they spend with that money? Thoughts?

Not certain, but I think most of these teams are 'owned' by corporations or whatever. E.g. last year's Samsung White obviously being owned/sponsored by Samsung.

So the players are paid a salary, and probably have an incentive bonus for performing in tournaments. In the end though, I'd imagine the owner gets the prize. No idea how big the bonus would be though (between 1000 and 150000 I'd imagine - there needs to be something to cover costs).

I could be wrong though, perhaps the teams are merely sponsored for advertising usage and the sponsor doesn't claim any of the winnings at all.
