I think its good because your average player will make much worse folds than folding after raising 30% of his stack.

well, it was the FT bubble, but the money bubble was at 270. Also, I was pretty sure this guy was in it to win it, not coast through.

If I hadn't won the $1200 last night, I'd be a losing player.

No wait, I'm a losing player with it, too.
