I'm playing in the MOSS #41 60k Guarantee and it finished with ~85k prize pool. So 5 hours of late reg, well past the guarantee and what do I see? Paying out 585 places and if you min cash you earn a whopping $3.86 for your hours and hours of time. Cashing should always be at least 2x or something, this $3.86 is honestly a joke and should be looked at. First is a little over 15k, which is something like 17% of the prize pool.





For some reason it's showing my picture as broken, I assume it's due to low post count, here is the link for a picture showing the tournament in question:

I don't really care about min cashes personally, but recreational players would definitely feel bad if they play for all those hours and just won ~$4. Making min cashes 2x is good for rec players, which is in turn good for everyone.

Caring is good APS. Sounds like you care more than the network, it's been hashed over here since the beginning of time, and never gets the attention it deserves.

The bubble would also be considerably more interesting and challenging if they eliminated those useless bottom payouts.

While you are somewhat right to argue this. As its just their crappy payout ranges that can go from like 12% to 20% depending on one more entry.

The problem with saying a min cash should be double would mean paying out way less people so that min cash would be so much harder to get for the fish.

Harder to get, yes, but more satisfying too I would think. I suppose there is a balance to maintain but this current system seems wonky for some/most tournies.

I agree, either get rid of a few spots or make it less top heavy. It's pretty tilting for as long as these take.

Just make your vote here please>>>>http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/61...times-1630593/

and send WPNTD a pm letting him know that you support either the 2x or 5x and I'm sure they can atleast try it out for one of the events, The people at wpn are very reasonable and seem to listen to what the customers want.

I dont see why dont they dont at least try it out? I like the option of paying 10% with atleast 2x min

Another good time in the $22 5 hour late reg $20k. Play 8 hours, fade 1500 people, make a smooth $28 profit for my efforts.
