dscoot 0 Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I think this new 3month layoff makes it easier for pro's who make the final table to win the whole thing. Joe average is more likely to negatively prepare for an event 3months later while a true pro might use the time to fine tune their strategy. Plus for the amatuers, getting that money might already change the way they live the nest 3months b4 the final table. Link to post Share on other sites
