If Microgaming could address the issues with the MPV then it may become popular enough to run these "one shot" tournaments with large prizes. The current problem is that not enough players would register to cover the prize.
The small prize tournaments that 32Red sometimes offer actually run at a loss to them, and are really a marketing spend. It gets people in the casino, and where they are free as well as "one shot", it could be the ONLY chance for a player that day who's deposit budget has already been lost.
This is an interesting tournament, and with the bunch of kids not
sue back for 3 weeks, and 11 days left to run, I may decide to "buy" the top prize so at least a CM member ends up winning it. Maybe the double, take out the Slotsmeister for the second time this year just to flex my muscle and show the pair of upstarts who's REALLY the boss around here when it comes to these wagering events
EDIT.
Sorry, I meant "due". The recent Betfair thread must have been playing on my mind
