WPN is trying to overlay their $215 Buy in tournament by increasing the GTD on the tournament $5,000 every week the tournament exceeds the Guarantee.

The goal for WPN is to get an overlay 2 weeks in a row to determine where to set their weekly Sunday tournament

The tournament is currently at 95K GTD and has exceeded the Guarantee having a prize pool of 115K

I min cashed for $26. That was a min cash!

In the long run, those huge deficits will work to our disadvantage. I'd like to see them cover their GTD's more often. The value is nice in the short term though! Good cash dealio96! I'd take it! LOL

Most of their schedule is 50-200x buy-in guarantees, and then they try 2000x monsters like these. I'd rather see them trying more like the sunday special, 300-1000x buy-in guarantees with 3 hr max reg. Ones that might have a small overlay at first but become sustainable instead of throwing all that money at a few events.
