Blatch:
Hey Des and Team,

The Walsall event was fantastic and I think there is only one problem.  The payout structure is crazy IMO.

I dont see how you can have prizes of the same value on a final table.  From memory I think 8,9 and 10th all got the same in Walsall and this needs to change to a standard increase. 

The final table payouts are just one factor as to how a tourney should be attempted to be played.  The whole laddering up the prize money vs going for the win is a great thing of any final table however with 3 places geting the same money this is taken out of the equation.

What is the reason behind the same prize for finishing higher?

Jon MW:
It was slow enough with that prize structure.

It would be even worse if there was a greater incentive to play even more passively for the ladder up.

1st place is the only payout any player on the final table should be worried about.

Nonsense!

That"s all.  :D

Jon MW:
2nd place just means you"re the best loser.

Why would you want to be a loser?
