You asked for players' thoughts. Here are a few questions specific for you that I am curious about [b][i]your[/i][/b] thoughts.
Doesn't the requirement to make you churn the entire amount of your bankroll in this tournament take away from your so-called "freedom?"
Doesn't the rule along with a few other rule changes compared to the BCBC below not fit with your comments on Byk's show in November of "letting freedom ring?"
[b]• FRIDAY: Players must bet a minimum total of $4,000 on at least 5 races ($800 per race minimum.) If they do not fulfill this requirement, they will be effectively eliminated from the contest as of the start of Saturday’s races.[/b]

Scroll to 1 hour 32 minutes for others' to review if interested. Several minutes in are the comments that prompted the questions above. Many more q's come to mind as well.
PS-You didn't mention that if someone doesn't play their entire bankroll (like when you mentioned they could play until they reach their bankroll limit and withdraw) that they would incur a $500 penalty aka "hospitality fee." Do you know a loophole written vaguely to avoid this penalty so that it would only deduct "points" after a final score is posted? Asking for a friend........
