Then I think the AGA should disassociate itself with the tournament. Let him run it by himself.

I find this comment really disrespectful to both Young Kwon and the AGA.

Honestly, has anyone who is personally impacted by this rule made a personal appeal for an exception? Did we even give the AGA a chance to respond or perhaps even be gracious about it?

Or we just started in with assumptions and complaints?

Effective communication is a two way street.

the only news I've heard so far is that this requirement will remain.

The AGA has a serious problem in this area. I would like to point out that we are STILL waiting on an official board statement about the dissolution of the 10 game rule...

I don't want to get back into that again.
