PokerOwned March Madness upgrade idea

Then how about using Player Rater as the tiebreaker?

I just think it's a disincentive to play later games if I, say, finish high in the 1:00 game that my opponent doesn't play in. Why would I risk that high placing by playing in a later game and getting knocked out early?

I guess that's part of the strategy. I honestly don't think people are gonna change their schedule because of this promotion, unless it was the finals and there was a lot of pts at stake.

And the more I think about it, the more I think people who can't make the first game (1:00 ET) would be at a severe disadvantage.

This may be a tad off topic, but I would like to see both of the BCP games count towards grinder. I would make more people play the games, and lead to bigger prizes in the BCP games.

Actually this is completely off topic.

So what are we thinking for a payout structure? I'd like to see a steep payout, but I'll go with flow here.

My suggestion would be:
1st place: 50%
2nd: 25%
3rd & 4th: 12.5%

So that would be 3200, 1600 and 800. Not bad
