Default Re: Money back for first one out in MTT - Thoughts?

Several years ago Sam’s Town tried something similar to generate action for a $20 Omaha 8 tournament; first 10 players eliminated got a $100 rack for $80 if they sat in the first cash game they opened. Early play was totally maniacal with people trying to either build a big stack or bust out and have a seat in the cash game with the 9 worst Omaha players in the room. It didn’t last very long.

I predict that a NL home tournament would be nearly over on the first hand as most people go all-in trying for a big lead or a refund.
