  C'mon wgt.. you been told about this ever since you created new tiers.. please fix... can't be too hard to do surely.
  
  Champion : First-place winner will receive 360 Credits
  Tour Legend : First-place winner will receive  10,000 WGT Credits
  Legend : First-place winner will receive  10,000 WGT Credits
  ... ... ...
  

  Amateur : First-place winner will receive  3,000 WGT Credits
  
  
  So Amateur winner get 8x more than champion.... rofl... whats the plan .. get champions to ditch accounts & restart taking $ off the new Amateur players ?

  $14 thousand not enough to make ends meet? Scraping to get by? Maybe that has been the plan the whole time, but you are right about the alternative. Makes it all not make sense.

  The major discrepancy being that they mislead you to think "dollars" while they are just credits "of no monetary value" (quote from the T&Cs below).

  Yea, you are right. That just did not come out right. Apologies to the op and others.

  It does kind of seem that WGT is systematically cutting back on the potential earnings of high level players. Op states this has been going on since new tiers, that has been months. Also, look at the prize pools for the 2016 VT, cut in half.

  I know that ... I was just using dollars as an abbreviation, rather than 20,000 credits. It's easier for people to read 200 dollars worth of credits than have to make the conversion ...

  The rest of us are nominalists ... lol ...
