You say 'most of us are backed'. By that you mean most of the people you know, and that's because you belong to a stable which gets these dirty deals. On other sites, I think most people actually play their own money. The majority of my friends certainly do, and they aren't random low stakes grinders. They are the ones who are re considering whether its fair or worth it to risk their hard earned cash on party.
Your posts are entirely self serving, and quite frankly absolutely ignorant of the bigger problems that all of this causes. I'd guess you've not been involved in this industry for more than a few years.
FWIW, I know for a fact that BRS is not the only stable receiving these deals, although as far as I'm aware it is by far the main beneficiary.
I've grinded poker for 10 years buddy and 5ks for more than half of them so good guess. Lol at the personal attacks, as I said I bet you didn't even play the comp and as usual the moaners who have the biggest problem are the ones least or not affected at all.
I played the comp via a satelite which I bought in from my own pocket and have no affiliation with brs so please lecture me again about how selfish and self serving I am.
I think your head is having a hard time understanding that it works out better for the recreational players having these players put in. You seem focused on it being worse when their money goes way further and more comes back into their pockets this way.
I also don't understand why your putting emphasis on "hard earned" money. Is this a new rule where only people with "hard earned" money who have saved up 3 months salary are allowed to play as opposed to an arabian king who turns up with boat loads of cash?? If the money is being ponied up honestly what difference does it make?
You refer to them as "dirty deals". Still waiting to hear why they are dirty?
I think there are some legitimate concerns that have been raised by others, I don't think you have raised any.
The stuff about collusion online in satties being the main one. This is a legitimate concern as the fields are small, you will be playing the same players and just the nature of satelites being a flat payout with a massive bubble and it being easy for players to give each other walks and pass chips etc etc
It's not an easy problem to resolve but it's going to basically mean strickter checks on partys end I guess, I don't see what else the answer can be.
Done argueing with people on the internet so I'll leave it to yall said my 2 cents peace.
