Sorry but I don't understand this thread about players in the Minor subsidising the Open.
Doesn't everyone know that it is the arbiters and organisers that do the subsidising?
Each arbiter will spend about 25 hours at a weekend congress. The Entries Secretary could spend about 150 hours. So with three sections and an arbiter to each section that will be over 250 hours (including other officials at the event). At a reasonable £10 per hour this comes to £2,500. Subtracting fuel and sustenance given (<£300) that leaves £2200 which is actually more than many prize funds!!
:-* :p :ymdevil:
