I love the events but I just don"t get why 9th pays the same as 4th.

Because it"s not about the money...the structure is designed to promote play at the tables and so is heavily weighted towards the later finishers.
Once the pressure is off about how much you"re gonna get (at the FT) then the play gets so much better when you"re playing for the win.
Simples.

I am afraid I have to disagree here.
One"s play at the FT is primarily dictated by the size of one"s chipstack and it"s relation to the blinds and antes.

Age old argument which APAT have so far refused to shift on.

a little of an over-statement here....there is very little stated demand for it to change four seasons into APAT....our feedback doors are always open....

Sorry didnt mean for it to sound quite so harsh.
Just don"t understand the reasoning for it. As far as I"m aware APAT is the only tournament series in the world which has this kind of payout structure.

Just back home after busting out 19th. Raised pre to 32K, passed round to Will Devanney who pushes for his 300k which I inst call. I show KK he shows QQ, flop X X X Q X....argghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks to Wazz 1974 and Mint Trav for good luck wishes and all at DTD, APAT, Players and supporters for making it such a superb event. See you in DUBBERS......

Not that I"ve ever had to worry about the payout structure lol

No problem, I don"t mind a debate at all
Of course just because something is unique, or innovative (or something you don"t understand lol) doesn"t mean it is necessarily a bad thing George.
I also don"t mind being known (APAT, not personally) for adopting new concepts either.
