Default Re: Tourneys that need guarantees

[ QUOTE ]
You guys realize if a tournament gets $50,000 in the prize pool everyday and they slap a $30,000 gtd on it, it doesnt make a difference right?

Everytime I look at a Stars tournament its like a $20,000 gtd with $37,000 in the prize pool, or something like that.

you'd be surprised how wrong you are

Default Re: Tourneys that need guarantees

lol, if you take off the 30k guarantee they won't get 50k in the prizepool.

If they added a 30k guarantee to the $22r, it would get over 40k everyday and quite possibly 50k.

They don't add guarantees to these type of tournies because the rake is low in the rebuys. They don't want to attract "fish" to these tournies since they would likely lose their money too fast.

PokerStars wants these "fish" to lose their money gradually over time to extract the maximum rake [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
