[GTL]

from the changes that were made, it seems pretty clear that Harrah's intended to shorten the final tables of the prelim events. That was the major change. The double stacks are generally to give the impression of a better structure early. To me, it is clear that Harrah's has a fairly good idea of what they are doing with the NL structures, and have chosen the structures to create shorter final tables in the prelim events. The question is, why?
