By your reasoning, Tiger Woods, Roger Federer, Kobe, etc etc are lacking something. They are doing it just to win, not for the money, not because its +EV, just to win, to test themselves. Now I highly doubt any of these guys have a confidence problem and Tiger and Roger certainly aren't immature, so what are they lacking? I cant believe that you wouldnt want to try to win a big buy-in tournament just because it may not be +EV. Surely it cant be too much -EV. Lets say you figure to dump 5k on average. 5k for a few days playing with great players and the chance to win big seems like it may be worth it. Also, I dont think you do know how good you are. In poker, good is only a relative term. So unless you know how good everyone else is, you dont know how good you are. Hence the need to test. Your lack of competitiveness is astounding.

I didn't read your whole post not because I don't respect the time you took. I'm just kind of busy right now. The first thing I think of when I started reading your response to Greg was at least one of the differences between Greg and the PGA tour members...Is the PGA players don't pay any entry fee.

Another thing I don't think Greg wanted TV time so everyone could see him...But his sponsers probably wouldn't want to fork over 50k if there wasn't much TV time.

If I misinterpreted that then I'm sorry.
