    Why pay out 20 places when the bottom 10 lose money when they place? THat doesn't make sense. 101 players and 11-20 win $101 when it costs $109 to play? Why? Why not pay 15 places so that they win something?

    I've had that same gripe for years. They should just pay 10. They should never spread payouts to the point where you make less than 30$ on a 109 entry.

    I gave up on UB. Go to pokerstars. : ) I seriously think I stunted my poker growth playing there as long as I did.

    I've seen this happen many times on many different sites. How hard is it to make tourney software that won't create payouts less than the buyin?

    That is strange. So technically you could finish ITM 100% of the time and be a losing player.
