In Response To: Results / Comments and some pics (Bill Riles)

Many commented on the $600 Main draw entry fee and the 15% rake, but Chiva says it was necessary with all the expense of making and shipping the boards (for 54 total players we have JUST a few too many boards at 64:)

(...)

I wish Chiva the best and appreciate his efforts; however, in my opinion, he needs to re-think his tournament model.

Are supplied boards really necessary, when all players have their own boards?

I would like to hear players opinions about that. Would they rather pay 15% rake to play on supplied boards, or would rather pay 10% rake and play on their boards?
