Unless ya'll know something the auctioneer doesn't there hasn't been a decision made concerning if there will be a reserve or not. I will guess that the card starts at about a third (around 500k) of it's probable value and won't have a reserve. There wasn't a decision made as of yesterday and mine is only a guess. There won't need to be a final decision on a reserve until game day. My guess is also that, depending on what rattles around the hobby, concerning the card until auction time, might be a deciding factor on a reserve too.

Edited to add, with some more thought and a few conversations my guess for the card will be about 2mil to 2.5 mil.....
