It just sounds worse because they are finally being very clear about all the fees and withheld money.
Agreed - it's funny that they are finally posting all fees clearly, but in the short term it is going to make people think the fees have gone up (as evidenced by this thread already). However, I think long term this is the best policy.

As mentioned earlier in this thread, the pricing percentages are slightly different this year than last, but they are very similar, and no worse for the player.

Re: WSOP Circuit tour 2012-2013

Is the schedule the same for each location as far as events go? I'm trying to figure out which dates to book for Cherokee.

Re: WSOP Circuit tour 2012-2013

The Ip has 8 365 events(1 six max/1 omaha), 2 580 events , 1 1125 event, and 1 1675 event, i think this will be the general blueprint for each stop, though some (hammond, west palm etc..) might have multiple starting days for the initial 365, but to counter that they will have other days with 2 ring events starting.

So stoked to see NC on the list! Harrah's Cherokee has hit the big time.

Re: WSOP Circuit tour 2012-2013

How does the Bike get away with having both WPT and WSOPC events, and no one else pulls that off?

Re: WSOP Circuit tour 2012-2013

Looking at the IP schedule --- I assume listing several of the ring events as 1 day (#2, 5, 10, 12) is an error (no structures posted)?

I have tentative plans to try to make the Shreveport, Durant, and the Southern Indiana events. Those are all within driving distance for me.

They listed 4 of the ring events as "1-day" events which means they're gonna butcher the structure on these events. The WSOPc structure is what made these tournaments so good. So I guess they raise the rake but lowered the quality.

I highly doubt this is the case, if it is, they truly have butchered the events and I will not be attending too many.

I am betting (hope?) this is just another typo in the long tradition that is the poker industry ---- I find it amazing how many mistakes I see in announcements put out by poker industry "leaders", makes me think this industry is run by a bunch of 15 year olds.
