To be fair, any tournament has that element of any Donk can take you out with poor play. Even the ME has a huge number of fish that basically bought a 10k lotto ticket.

SBR doesn't understand poker if they really believed this tourney series would be rewarding skill vs luck. If they were interested in skill vs luck they would not have a winner take all single tourney at the end. What's wrong with playing the 70 days and giving the ticket to the top points finisher? That's rewarding skill.
