Re: PokerStars funnybusiness in EPT
I don't understand why you are concerned. I hadn't realized they listed me as playing through FPPs, but either way, no customer of PokerStar's paid for me. It is a marketing expense. It is not as if they took FPPs from you or others and used them to buy me in. I honestly do not understand why you think listing me there "dilutes" the value of your FPPs.
The money was in the prize pool in London and Baden, and that money came from PS marketing budget. Nobody lost a penny in online sats or at the live events, so where is the damage?
PS wanted to list us online at the PS site, and they chose to put us into the FPP list intead of the cash list. Either way, I don't see a difference.
If there are some facts I'm missing or not understanding, let me know.
