"Stacked or Stacked Against? Exploring Poker Payouts: Are They Too Top Heavy?"
This episode of The Overlay covers a hotly debated topic among poker players: tournament payouts. Are they structured in a way that heavily favors the top finishers, leaving too many players out in the cold? Or to the Victor goes the spoils???
