awww... must be rough having to put up your own money to play [URL="http://javascript<b></b>:void(0);"][IMG]http://www.rakereport.net/forum/Smileys/default/cry.gif[/IMG][/URL]

-thier edge is their skills and abilities.......
-their incentive is to beat the best in the world and take home a bracelet and gobs of cash.....(and without having to wade through a 5 or 6000 player mine field where luck is as big a factor as skill)
 
 
 
as far as it being televised or not....sure I'd like to see it on TV, but changing the game solely to get it on TV so as to accomodate some spoiled players with free entries is a step in the wrong direction IMO.....if not enough players are willing to pay the entry and the event dies... then that's what it deserved
 
next thing, they'll want appearance fees to show up at tournies......then it's private lounges with 100 bottles of Fiji water, 10lbs of M&Ms with all the red ones picked out, and exactly 67 [insert some extremely rare and expensive thing here] ...ect, ect, ect........then one year you'll notice they seem to be running twice as many commercials as in previous years because all the top players demanded a piece of the TV revenues
 
 
 
if they believe that having to pay to play is -EV for them and won't play without it being a freeroll...then they must believe they're not good enough to play......otherwise, I say put your money where your mouth(or ego) is
 
fact is, he wanted to change a game for no reason other than the change would give him a free ride..... he wasn't lobbying for the change "for the good of the game" or any other such noble idea......it all came directly from greed (and possibly feelings of self-importance)
