The structure was great for my card dead-ness but bad for me tonight. I was not at all focused for this tournament as I am exhausted. I played fairly poorly down the stretch IMO. Oh well.

I am not sure I follow your logic; you are perfectly capable of watching the people play without money in your account; you just cannot type on the rail; the guys who are moneying these things probably don't need the distraction and you came in here to make the point of saying that you are on the silent rail anyways; I like to rail too, and I don't have money on there to chat, but I can still watch; unless you are seeking credit for railing or feel that your "gl" or "tid" or "nh" is going to make the difference, just rail and type in herethe sites don't want a million players typing in comments and that is what would happen; it is not just the negative stuff, it is the total accumulation of crap being spewed on the sites

I would pay $50 to see the look on Tommy's face when that popped up on his screen.

it's not the same....i enjoy being railed and seeing the support and being able to chitchat a little. Just my thoughts...i know alot of people who turn off chat while playing and that's cool too. i think it comes down to preference. i don't mind doing it this way, and for some people it's the way they prefer to be railed too. My point simply was just because someone has or doesn't have enough money to buy into a certain game in their accounts shouldn't determine whether or not that person has a chat priviledge. it doesn't really weed out the idiots (as proven). I also don't think it's fair that they pay these big named pros and advertise them like you can chat and play with them. Then see them sit down at a 200/400 table and hardly anybody in their advertising audience can play these stakes. therefore can't chat with them. i just think it's punishing the good and not necessarily restricting the bad.

Yes, its quite a standard cooperation play, when one person is all in at a big pay jump like this, you both benefit by checking it down rather than isolating, since you have a better chance of eliminating the all-in player together.
