Third, it dosen't cost PartyPoker $1K to hold a MTT every night of the friggin' week, but they sure charge it!! They've decided that their market of players can bear the cost of $1 for a chance at alot more. Now, if i could fit 250 people in my garage, I'd only charge $1 too.

No matter how you package it, it's still a turd.

Okay let's make a prediction. Unless you drop your rake or increase the buy in until the rake is about 15-20% of the buy in, you may get people the first couple times, but probably nobody by the 3rd poker night. They will quickly notice that 27 x $10 rake is $270, and the prize for 1st place is barely more then that! The only ones I expect to even come are ones that don't understand rake, because anybody else knows it's impossible to win with a 50% rake.

BTW, for a $10 rake, are you even going to provide dealers for this tournament?
