Zab - Your rake on tourneys is ridiculous and I'm pissed

[rghy2]

NINETY PERCENT RAKE on the client tourneys is complete bullshit. You're making up well over half of your "value added" by just raking the hell out of us. When you started these tourneys it was 10% rake, 90% of the buyins went to the prize pool. Now 90% of the buy in goes to you!!!

In all honesty, the higher the rake goes, the less value PO has for me. The less value PO has for me, the less I will participate.

Bottom line - Don't piss on me and tell me it's raining.

This tournament was 125 (30 + 95) with 3000 added on. 3000 + 30 * 17 players = 3510 in the pot.

If he did 10% rake it would be (115 + 10 approximately) with 0 added on. 0 + 17 * 115 = 1955 in the pot.

Ill stick with the 1st one.

Forget Rake, Forget Added, Forget all that.

The question you have to ask is: Is there an overlay for every tournament? The answer is, without a doubt yes. Very large ones.

So that should answer any question you have whether they have tremendous value or not.


**** IF **** we start getting more #s, I'll decrease the rake, but as it stands now, the #s are not increasing

There is still an overlay, but the prizepool is about 1/3 less than when these games started. 3k added to 10% rake is 3k added value. 3k added to 90% rake is roughly 1k added value over what the prizepool was worth a few weeks ago. It's marketing bait and switch.

um lol. don't play then?

That's the point of this thread. I'm not ready to leave PO, but this is pushing me one step closer.

When he first put this tournaments out he got really low numbers and was losing pts on the deal. It's been trial and error (the numbers are still really low for these).

125 pts to win 1444 in a 17 person tournament is still really good value.
