The bad news but it's not an accident. It's not Black Friday. There are reasons to do so and even 20 it does not matter. BRM good site. First place at tournament, this is important

Yeah sometimes it is bad economy and you will have to adjust and adapt to be able to survive , take for example poker players when the poker thing just get started you could make a lot of money playing tight as most players were crazy and you could just sit back and let the money rolled in , but now it has changed and you cannot make money easily and you will have to adapt and all anyway peace out and have fun mate!

It's not actually BRM that reduced the payout in the freerolls it's done by the poker sites. The poker sites sponsor these games, so their affiliate manager has reduced the amount of money they provide for these games. prob, due to the fact that BRM is not bringing enough new depositing players to their site. so one day these freerolls will be $0.00, because poker sites don't provide freeroll money forever if an affiliate is not bringing them new traffic.

I had no idea so far how the system with these freerolls works. It was a good information know a bit more of it. I always though that the money is provided by the affiliates for each game. Guess i was wrong

Aaand this is why you don't play for the prizepool, you play for the leaderboard positions. Until that will be flushed too

This is just a theory but maybe the lower the payout the less freeroll freeloaders who turn the games into a donkathon will enter the tournies.I don't play any of these because they end up as a big field bingo lottery,I would probably play if it was just for the leaderboard points or maybe instead of awarding money they should pay out in mob points which would mean no non members playing and to stop the bingo aspect.....?anyone out in the first 2 levels is not allowed to play the next 3 tournies ....Just a theory.....don't troll me too much

Yes, the prizes and promos are go dowm step by step. The poker boom in the tv goes down and so so there is not enough promo money in the pot... But better a small prize than nothing and the most important thing was the fun in the game.

I think it was something temporary with the sitouts. It might happened in a couple of games. Of course the money in stake is the key, but the reduction wasnt that much either way. But in general the numbers will decrease when the prize goes down
