Re: DON blind levels

The middling levels are absolutely horrid. Please remove 30/60, 40/80, 60/120 type levels and add in 10/20 please and thanks.

If you don't like the 6 min blind lvls you don't have to play them, play the hyper turbos. I play the 6 min blind levels and wouldn't play the shorter ones so I wouldn't play there if they didn't have 6 min lvls. I'd be ok with longer levels. I did notice that some turbos have 6 min lvls listed and some have 5. Idk if its a bug or what.

+1

I like the 6 min blinds but these middle levels is what makes for a stretched out game that's like waiting for water to boil.

Re: DON blind levels

I've been playing a bit of both to see what I like. Been playing 6 max FWIW. In the 6 minute blind variety, people to tend to spew a little too early from boredom it seems. I say keep both. Honestly though, I've been registering to whatever is filling up.

I doubt Lock gets rid or either 6 min or 3 min.

Re: DON blind levels

Can you please change the $25 buy-in 10-man Double-ups to $20? I'm very sure the $20's would go off way more often than the $25's currently are.

Re: DON blind levels

Keep them as is. If you have an issue with it play the turbos. Don't screw around with things that aren't broken. Play more tables if you need the action.

I'm talking about the 10-man double-ups, not the 6-mans. The games above $10 (turbos included) go off very slowly, at less than half the rate of the other buy-ins. I consider that broken. Also, I've already played 1200 games this month, and I am playing as many tables as possible. How many have you played this month?

I play $2-$10's of the 10-mans. I can get 20-30 going during peak times. I want to go for Black VIP next month, and right now that's very hard for me to do playing mostly those low buyins, as I have to put in 8+ hours.

Are you kidding me? You can play Double up NLH or Double up NLH Turbos. Play the turbos, you don't need to kill the 6min games. Please don't try to attack someone making a logical post without any sort of backup and just telling people not to talk. Would absolutely love to hear why you think I don't know what I'm talking about. Please do enlighten me.

You're obviously referring to the 6-man doubles, where the turbos go off at an okay rate. We are talking about the 10-mans, where the turbos and the regular speeds above $10's hardly run. I already said previously that I'm a high volume 10-man player who'd like to see the higher buy-ins run more. That is the point I'm trying to make.

Sorry for not explaining myself. Madshakes is one of the highest volume DON grinders. I'm sure he'd add tables but he already plays every $2-$25 (turbo and regular) that runs during the time he is playing. The volume just isn't there. I sure wish more games ran and I'm sure other regs would like the same thing. That's why I LOL'd at you telling him to add more tables.

How is he killing a game that barely runs anyways? He was simply suggesting maybe lowering the buyin so that traffic could possibly pick up. Also, I'd guess about 1 turbo for every 10 regular games at the similar stake level goes off. (exception would be the $1.5s or w/e they are). So it's not like he can just switch to playing only turbos unless he'd enjoy playing 3 games an hour.

Edit: *referring to 10 mans, not 6max
