Default Re: Do you like the WPT Aruba Payout structure?

I think the thought is that a large majority of entrants won their seat with a small-buy-in satellite win. So even $7000 is a nice win. All the money goes back into their UB accounts, unless they bought the seat with cash. It keeps the money and action at their website, which makes it more attractive for everybody.

This is an excellent point and would certainly explain the horribly flat structure. Daryn, did you get a check or did the money get credited to your UB account?

Anyway, I still don't like it, but there are some excellent points here regarding satellite winners, defraying travel expenses and the like, so I can certainly why UB would have structured it this way.
