I think it going to a $1 base is great for people who otherwise would not have played because the $2 base didn't fit their ticket budgets, and I'm all for expansion to include new players...BUT, as someone who has played this with a $2 base and failed to hit it, I'm kind of miffed because now I'll have to have the dilemma when I play of going for $1 or $2 in bases...do I keep my $2 to "double" my winnings because the take down is less with more $1 base bets included? Something I'll need to think about.
