Well that's one way of looking at it but yeah these players don't give a damn if they lose money or break even during the year as long as they make their $100k and once they have taken off how much they have lost then they will usually show a profit. They just leech off of everyone else who pays rake whilst they nit it up. The old/current system is just unfair.
With regards to the maths then yeah you could view it that way for sure. If you worked a normal job and made $50k salary and your boss walked in and told you to take a $20k pay cut would you do it or would you just go get antoher job? It's just not going to be worthwhile to a lot of these guys to try for it next year.
Some will be able to adjust. Chicagojoey was mentioned earlier. He is a good example of a player who will win no matter how many tables they play.
If Stars can get rid of this misplaced entitlement that the nits have with regards to rb then that's a good thing. BB/100 should be money made at the table not money made in rb.
Hi. So SNE is worth about $100,000. But don't you say its not a very smart idea to try and get it if one loses like $70,000 to get it? I mean, thats a TON of work just for $30,000. I could see a person doing it and lose say $30,000 and then get the $100,000 and making $70,000.... but isn't $30,000 net profit not worth it for that amount of work? I know SNE takes a tremendous amount of time even for a nit. Does anyone know what on average a SNE loses a year? I read most are just trying to breakeven for it and b/e for $100k is certainly great. But i see guys like Spacygravy who is an sng player make it and he wins a good amount of money before even making it. So its very rare for a SNE to win money overall not counting SNE?
Also... isn't stuff like the $5200 WCOOP seat and a $10k live event factored into SNE? I assume they can sell these for cash right? Because if they can't... this type of person might just net profit $10,000 cash, and have 2 seats worth $15,200 for tournaments where its usually dead money if they don't play tournament and have experience right?
I was just a SN but to those who are SNE... you don't make $100,000 at the end of the year right? Like when i was SN, i would just buy the vpp milestones and then once i had enough FPP, i buy the $4000 bonuses along the way. But for SNE, its very similar to SN where you just buy $4000 bonuses along the way right? Or do many of you never buy and just do it at the end of the year? I also read that when you get those $5200 Wcoop ticket and 10k live event, they are only give once you make SNE. Can you explain this part?
Thanks!
