first off, i say this is a player who prefers cash versus tournaments. i would like to see that type of tournament where 10% or 15% of the top finishers split the prize pool equally. so, all winners win the same amount, and it would take less time. that way, there's more of a "chunk" to be sought and won, versus all these embarrassing min cashes or less-than-min cashes I see awarded. and yes, I mean "embarrassing." to buy in for $400 and spend hours upon hours, sometimes even multiple freaking days, and only get like $786 total.... is ridiculous and, yes, embarrassing.

i agree in general, but you still want a couple small buy-in + huge field sizes to bring in amateurs, like the "big 50" and colossus. to me, these are the most fun weekends to be at the wsop, because it's so crowded and quite literally everybody is in town.

while i disagree, and prefer the old fashioned non-straddle games because i dont want my game to get out of hand..... i have an idea. you could always just ask the floor person to see if they would just let you start one of those special tables, no? it couldn't hurt. you know they would accomodate a high stakes game for special ante/blind/straddle, maybe they would allow for the same for one or two small stakes games.
