  Lowering credits for the top 5 players doesn't make any sense, keep it as it is, take only 15% or 10% (20% rake is quite ridiculous, isn't it?) from the fees and give more credits to players on 11th-15th place. Second choice - no credits for 25th-30th place and give them to 11th-15th.

  If WGT reduces there rake from 15% to 10% sure you can pay out extra places with that 5%

  The rake is currently at 20%, not 15% ;-)

  WGTicon:

  We have heard from players that they would like to see more players being paid out

  These players need to stop complaining and work on their game.

  Too many paid out already. AT MOST only  the top half should get anything back.

  Gee....no option that simply sees every player getting back 80% of their entry fee?

  Either leave it as it is....or go with Sam's option.

  Pokerstars which dwarfs WGT by about 50x in terms of revenue has lowered rake on games in the past.  As skill edges are reduced due to the standard level of play increasing as a whole, at times games become nearly unbeatable(after including ball wear).  We are almost to that point now with the clubs and balls where the difference between the best player on wgt, and the 100th best player is not that great anymore.  Where in early 2010 when ready gos started, that difference would've been massive.

  Seems that most that play RG's use any profit for buying balls, so the 20% that WGT takes is more than doubled. The consensus seems to be that the rake that WGT gets should be reduced, but there's only 2 chances of that happening- slim and none.
