If you do a split, do it in one of the 3x combinations so there is no animosity there. Let the youngling enjoy the draws and pocket your gold draws for later when there isn’t the risk of pressure. This will be how I will do it so I don’t have a need to “compare” with them and they get total pleasure from the pulls without seeing what happened in my pulls.

Most of this is being a good citizen and the more they have the thrill the more likely they will seek out TEs and the engine of this continues to expand. Give them a taste without them seeing your taste.

If not, I agree, no Bueno.

I am a loaner, for a split. If some don't like it, I respect that opinion. I disagree, and feel it helped me get to where I could help others. I hope it doesn't cost me friends, but I may never know.

Which is better is a theoretical exercise at best.

I agree, if TA wants to hold several thousands of dollars on tons of runs throughout the weekend and replace any losses they are responsible for, I’m fine with that too.

This is how I handle it. let them do those pulls. I'll take a 10x chip or a few 3x chips and grab a 50 bag when I have enough.

I don't ever pull tokens in epilogue if possible any more, just simpler to get a few pre-packs and sort over dinner with my crew

This.

I think it is great that we as a community try to make adjustments so newer players get protected from potential bad experiences caused by veterans. But sometimes I think we jump on trying to solve problems before actually confirming that there is a problem to solve (rather than an anecdote or two) or identifying what the root of the actual problem is if there is a problem..

I'm going to say this again. Good coaches watch out for bad behavior. I've seen a very few instances in 7 years of coaching and we can and have dealt with them. Sometimes it has required a rule change. But not that often and not impacting very many people.
