Thinking about it in the freeroll sense is a great idea. I have been backed in a few tourneys and it didn't change the way I played at all. However when I do finish out of the money it isn't any more disappointing when it is someone elses money than when I lose my own.
Greed is the only reason people would have a tough time giving up the money that they won. Most people play the what if and could of or should have game. Like taking down a 10k prize and having to give 5k to a backer.I imagine most people would sit there and stew about how they should really have that full amount instead of looking at it like a freeroll for half the amount as TP suggested.
