Default Re: Xmas Stars $530 +100k added tourny

[ QUOTE ]
Why, do the guaranteed tournies ussually not reach their guarantee? I doubt stars regularly has to add much, let alone more than 100k to make sure a tournament reaches it's guarantee.

I've never seen Stars NOT meet the guarantee. However, it being Christmas, the bean counters could have forecasted a low turnout for the 700K. Rather than having to put up a massive $200-$300K overlay, they hedged their bets by "adding $100K for Christmas." Makes sense to me.
