For the specific buy ins the prizes could have been better. For example for 215 USD buy in the first prize didnt look that good. Not that it was a bad return for the buy in Al their tournament series there are XL?
No wonder that the tourney with the lowest buy-in was the most popular to be honest. Yeah players think twice before paying two hundred or 1k for a chance to finish top10.

whenever I see payout in these big tournaments say for example in this main event of 730 players I think gutted seeing payout for 8th place is 13k when 1st place is whooping 183k, fcukin structure in most tournaments is what I think... so heavily leaned towards top 3
Most high profile online tourneys are topheavy when it comes to the payout structure. It is a good thing when you could finish in that top3-top5, and it is a bad thing when you the first or second 2 bust out after reaching final table.

pochui from my point of view you are right. Top 3 in big tournaments earns more money than the rest of the players. This is not normal and then you feel that something is wrong. Prizes should be changed for players to be more than satisfied. this think will bring extra players to the tables.
