You linked to the entire list of IPT players. How many from that list would actually be playing in the tournament, or for that matter missed from any tournament? Many are just amateur or at best good regional, players. There are only a few who you would really call stars and how many of them would have played anyway? I think you are exaggerating the importance of most of those players. You have some stars and some players who would not be missed at all from any tournament and the rest no one knows who they are anyway.
