Thats fair but i clearly said assuming 3 handed stacks are relatively even it is an insane ICM **** that would compare to a satellite. Also raising any 2 wont be possible because its a hyper turbo so you're going to need to shove and you cant shove any 2 so you pretty much have to shove correctly and call extremely tight. Like TT+AK tight

Yep, and I still think what you said is correct. I am not pointing that out. I am pointing out you went to the negative implications of the flat/top heavy payout structures rather than looking at the positive. My post was made more in jest, and to say, "Hey, maybe this glass isn't always half empty" rather than debate the fine points of ICM. Heck, obviously I can't even debate the broad points of ICM.

Yeah, I think having the leader board likely promotes competition and therefore more entries. I also wonder if this is one of those, "Well let's try this and check the numbers" kind of things. Because they can always bring it back and promo it with

Leader boards are back! And now more $weeps Cash on the table then ever!
