                        It would be better if the prizes were given based off standings from the 10 weeks of play or whatever it is rather than have to qualify and luckbox ONE tournament. That would be rewarding good play on a hierarchy basis.

                                  Id rather have daily points put back to normal then a luck box. Top 20 is a lot of effort, you'll basically have to play everyday for peanuts, and as you said, despite skill, especially with the format, it's a luck box tourney.

                                  Another pass. I miss the good ole'days.

                                  To the doubters, I haven't played one day since the Daily payouts changed

                                      Looks nice, thanks Drew! So only 30 people end up in the final event and all win prizes? That's pretty nice! Top 100 qualifying made it too much of a crapshoot imo to win anything reasonable, Top 30 is much preferred. Granted I may not even qualify for it, but I still think it's a better format!

                                      Either way, appreciate the promo for sure, last year we had no promo after the World Cup, and this is definitely better than nothing!

                                        the shorter length is good

                                        the players who show up every day get rewarded with a near automatic entry to the final

                                        the next 80 get a chance to play their way in

                                        seems about as good as we can expect nowadays

                                                          I like the promo, but why eject players after 15 minutes of no show? I do not like that rule. Alot of times I cant make it until about 35 minutes late and I am only down 400 chips or so
