my explanation for the higher rebuys is that the 60s that run have such high variance many regs opt to completely avoid them. The swings are just ungodly, introducing a rebuy that can offer a similar buy-in such as 14r or a 7r 180 turbo would mean that people still spew off just as much money in the prizepool if it was the 14 but still keep up volume since regs are happy to join.
7r would bridge the gap between 15s and 35s.

heres another option, 25 hypers 180man sngs?

That players can make a deal by their own. Like you can see on PartyPoker and in the past on FT. It's pretty annoying to get a mod and wait and wait etc.

Walmsley can we please get an "IM READY" button for all MTT final tables?


taking a 5 minute break while you're in the zone crushing the table can throw you off sometimes.


+1 this if you agree

Re: *** OFFICIAL PokerStars MTTSNG Suggestion Thread ***

How do you 45m players feel about a blind level structure along these lines:

30
40
60
80
120a
160
200
300
400
500
600
800
1000
1200
1600
2000
2400
3000

Even though not all 45s last till the 3k level, I feel that the 2k-3k jump is far too steep considering the amount of chips in play.

The earlier levels should be appreciated by most recs and prolly some regs as well, especially when combined with antes at bb120.

Please note that this is my extension of Alex Wice's original post regarding structure changes.

alternative suggestion

cut 8s, replace with 5s, as well as 8 rebuys. that makes abi scale 2.5 - 5 - 10 - 15 - 24 - 35 instead of 2.5 - 8 - 10 - 15 - 35


Also, seperate leaderboard for MTTSNGs, cause 180s can't compete for MTT leaderboard
+1

Couple other things I'd like to see added:
-6-max turbo 180 maybe $7
-60-90 man hyper turbos $2, $5, $12

It's a shame the 7r 90 person never runs but I think it's because it just has to be promoted a bit more not many people know about it.

not to mention..... have you read the threads about mods ****ing players in chop discussions.... they are there, and moderators(and ps pros lol) screwing players out of equity during choptalks shouldnt be part of poker

very justified rant:
just recently i watched an incompetent mod effectively screw 2 of 3 players out of a potential chop discussion by repeatedly telling players that they had to form a consensus on "what" and then "what #s" they wanted the mod to show them when they all just kept saying "chop numbers" (duh)(and only after 10 minutes of that request being ignored as insufficient and a player asking what options they had to choose from did the mod say icm, chip chop, or player specified numbers) then only moments after finally knowing what they had to agree on to see #s when the third quieter player who had been letting the others guide the choptalk said "well this isnt going anywhere and im tired lets just play " the mod says "looks like you cant reach an agreement im restarting the tournament"

how the **** are players supposed to know what options they have if the mod doesnt offer them choices and more importantly how is that type of human error from an external unneccessary party an option!!
