So a lot of debate has been going on on Twitter amongst poker players about unlimited reentry tournaments. Some strongly against it and some who support it. I'd like to know where the majority of Cardschat members fall in this topic. I'll start off by giving my opinion on the matter.
I think tournaments should fall into 3 categories.
1- a normal run of the mill tourney should have a maximum of 2 re entries. It helps build the prize pool and gives pros and recs an equal advantage to come ITM.
2- charity tournaments that give a certain percentage of the pool to charity should be allowed to have unlimited re entries. It helps raise more money and the whole point of this type is to raise as much money as possible.
3- prestigious tournaments i.e. the main event, super high roller bowl, wpt championship should be a freezeout. It adds to the allure of big games while also giving a rec who's built his bankroll up to play these events a fair shot at outlasting a pro with an unlimited roll. I also believe it would add more prestige to taking one of these down.
What's some of your opinions?
