Taking the ladies event aside (as I dont know how much it costs/and how many people will be there), 64 people will be entering a comp paying ?15. The payout is ?240 less than the total entry fee, and thats not including any sponseship from the venue, and or potential rebuys.

I cant honestly see how you can promote this as a free plate when in reality ?3.75 of your everyones entry is put aside to subsidise the plate. As in reality half of the field will not have the chance to utilise this in my opinion the event doesnt offer the greatest value for money.

Dont get me wrong I will still be there, but the move from ?10 to ?15 is making no difference at all to the prize fund for the major event, which the majority are actually going for.

This is clearly just an opinion of mine, and as I dont organise it I dont expect this to make any difference. Just an observation thats all.
