Chohan (+23k), Gomez (+21k), Lunda (+12k), and Hall (+10k) were the most overpriced compared to their ratings, while Teutscher (-22k), Gorst (-18k), Garcia (-8k) and Magi (-7k) were the most underpriced.

If you give extra rating points to the players listed in this thread as specialists (50 for Chohan, Gomez, Hall, Lunda and 25 for Roberts, Compton), then the value matrix changes considerably.

Now there are only two five-figure discrepancies, for Teutscher (-15k) and Morra (+14k). So overall the Calcutta seems to have been priced pretty well if you believe those adjustments, which is what you'd expect for the kind of informed money flying around in this setting.
Fantastic post.

Am I reading this correctly? ... that if Gorst was sold under value, and had sold at your projected "real value," he would need to win the event to have a net positive, and finishing second would be a break-even proposition (within a few hundred dollars, I suppose, given that if he sold for more the total payouts would be slightly different).
