But if payouts dont offer that they will lose interest. Recs dont care about longrun and samplesize. Every mtt they registered should offer a win that matters. That could be a life changing score or an amount of money thats higher than your monthly wage. But thats my opinion.
I agree with this, but this is not a reason to make blinds grow slowly in flagship MTTs.
I also agree that PKOs don't work well as scheduled MTTs because it's barely possible to make a tourney with both significant KO amounts and large FT payouts. If a tourney is KO, it's low-variance. If it has to have high-variance, it has to be non-KO.
I'd prefer the following lineup of flagship tourney offerings where different tourney categories would cater to different audiences instead of trying to lump KO lovers and variance lovers together:
1. Non-KO Bubble Rushes - for those who like to win big without falling asleep.
2. Spin & Gos - for those who like to win big but don't have more than 10 spare minutes and are OK with letting their fate be largely determined by a slot.
3. Total KO MTSNGs - for those who like to grab everyone by the bounty.
4. Super-KO STTs - for those who like it simple and are too confused by total KOs.
5. Power Up - for those who're into high-tech fantasy.
No 50% PKOs, no half-measures.
