That is another horrible decision they are making. They run their tourneys very unprofessionally. I could do a much better job with my education, poker knowledge, and love for the game. I have had passing thoughts about turning it into a career, but unless I become like Matt Savage, it can't pay much better than what I am already making at an entry level position.
I accidently planned a Vegas trip the same weekend as this tourney, so I guess now I have a good excuse for blowing this tourney off.
I mean, come on. So you and 2 of your buddies decide to enter this tourney together, and enter early on and get one of the first tables that won't break until the final day, lots of good collusion possibilities there. They better redraw seating for the final day, or now they are just looking downright stupid. Learn how to run a professional tourney.
