Re: Any word about Stars and the 20% structure?
I'm actually of two minds on this one. I understand McMelchior's point, and think that good players whining about 20% pay-outs is akin to high buy-in players complaining about low buy-in events. (I played five hours for a measly $2k?) The games are what they are, so live with it. (Now, if they went to a 20% format for a substantial number of tournaments, so many that I couldn't find one I liked, then I would have a problem. Of course I've fallen in love with the 20-table SnGs, so event that would be okay.)
My only problem comes when I accidentally register for one, but that's my own fault. If Stars included a "Hey, you realize that this is a 20% tournament, right?" pop-up, my complaints would vanish.
