Initially I thought that the change in VPP distibution would be an improvment for the avid mass hand grinder. However after playing 6k hands on the first day of this change I'm starting to have reservations.

That said I'll hold off my judgement until the first month is over and until all tables sporting the old code have been replaced by the new.

Any links or comments other than the above would be most welcome?

HARDER I think because the easiest way to do it before was mass table full nit ring, but they nerfed the vpp/hand there.

SNG grinders (who rarely make it anyway) will find it easier with an extra 10% awarded

so far this year with 30k hands under my belt at 200nl fr I would says it will be 15% harder. Or 345k more hands req'd.

It depends what you play.

Biggest losers - FR limit 1-2 games,

Biggest Gainers - SNG/MTT, Limit games 5-10 and above.
