Garry Gates has moved into a new role with PokerStars as senior consultant of player affairs for PokerStars Live, and his first move is to roll back the payout structure after overwhelming player requests, he announced on PokerStars.com.
Back in 2016 after the World Series of Poker ended, PokerStars held its European Poker Tour Barcelona event and announced the tournaments there would pay out up to 20 percent of the field, with the minimum cash being just a little more than the cost to buy in.
