  What's the big idea WGT taking a 10% cut of the credits wagered between 2 players in a matchplay challenge, you're a pack of thieves, it's disgusting.

  It's all explained in the FAQ's. If you don't like the rule why not play a normal match-play round and the loser gifts balls to the winner?

  I know the same thing happens to me whenever I play a round of golf there always trying to charge me a greens fee. Or sometimes the oil man comes to my house to fill my tank then has the nerve to leave me a bill ...  how dare he ?

  C'mon man you cant be serious...  just like every other business WGT exists to make money, thats how it works.

  How are they thieves? Is the person who gives you your fries at McDonald's a thief? Is the person who checks you at at Wal-Mart a thief? No. 

  You don't have to participate in MPCs if you don't like them taking their 10%, and if you don't, then don't play in it. It's really that simple.

  It's called a house take Tanner.  Ever played in a poker tournament ?  10 % is standard and in no way out of the ordinary or out of bounds.

  Its not 10%...although thats what it looks like.

  Its 20%

  So staking 222 leaves a total pay out of 178, not 200 which many think. If u want to take home 200 you must stake 250.

  It costs a small fortune to make the great courses you play on here.

  This mentality that is so pervasive throughout the world right now that capitalism is the evil and scourge of the planet is a show of their ignorance. Your support for a more socialistic utopia shows you have no understanding of the human factor. The re-distribution of wealth does not make everyone equal, rather it makes everyone equally miserable. It's a free market world and as a consumer if you don't like it you can express it by not paying. Consumer behavior affects market prices. The Human Factor.

  simple and easy....
