Hopefully, next year it will return to the normal schedule.
If I get Mike Schneider and IanJ at my starting table at a limit holdem event, that's a pretty bad draw. Though my all-time worst draw at a limit holdem event was at a 10k, where there were 7 people at the table with bracelets (including me), and of those other 6, five of them had a bracelet in a limit event!

You may say, "Well, it's a $10k", but you'd be surprised how many fish enter those events who are absolutely dead money. Those $10k limit holdem events are a weird mix of fish and really good players. I've actually gotten some super soft starting tables... including in 2019, where I was sadly picked up and moved to the toughest table in the event! Ugh.
