VIDEO: Edgar TV explains more about prize money and costs on the Pro Tour

Matthew Edgar has posted a new video online on his YouTube channel 'Edgar TV'. In it, he explains more about the prize money to be earned on the Pro Tour and also the costs involved.

Edgar was a pro player himself for many years, so he is well placed to estimate prize money and costs on the Pro Tour. "Other than your transportation and hotel, there really aren't that many costs," Edgar says. "Everything is offset against the prize money you get."
