Default Re: FTP\'s New \"Knockout Bounty\" MTTs

[ QUOTE ]
I think you're wrong on this point. The way I read it, rake is staying the same. It will still be, say, a $24 + 2 tourney. But of the $24, $20 goes to the regular prize pool, and $4 goes to the bounty.

I wouldn't be nearly as "excited" about these if that was true. Then it would seem like it would help the ROI of the weaker players, but at the same time it's hard to predict how weak the fields will be relative to "traditional" tournaments, since a prize pool that's significantly flatter tends to (IMO) attract donkeys--at least in live home games that's my experience.
