This has been posted about for over a week now, why has this tournament not been fixed???? When registration ends the BB is at 800 and it's unplayable.

Either increase the stack size, make it 2 hours like it obviously was supposed to be and cut or eat the guarantee, or completely get rid of it. I would play this every night but skip it because the structure is so terrible.

That is correct a 5k ss with 12 min blinds.

The starting stack was never the issue. Look at the blind structure, it registers for 15 levels and ends at 800 BB unless it's been fixed since the weekend.

Edit: Still not fixed, just looked.

Yes that is correct. With the 12 min blinds this is the structure depending on what tournament it is.

Since when is there tournaments that register to 6.25 bbs? If there is others on the site I've somehow missed, please change them. You can't even play near the bubble because of it.

Whats the problem with the late reg open till that late?

At a glance it seems nice that people still contribute with dead money re entering with 6 bbs.

It destroys bubble play and people are just waiting until the last 2nd to reg and getting a min cash after winning 1 flip. I'd guess it also kills reentry since anyone with a clue won't register that short. There is a big difference between 6bbs and 10. I know I personally will not be playing until it's changed and I avg 2+ bullets in this every night. Hopefully others do the same...

Sometimes people win a flip, more often than not they gamble away their chips. If you have a decent stack in the last 2 levels of these and aren't card dead, you hit the money with a big stack.

At the end of the 250/500 level what is the avg prize pool ? If it´s 5k or more then there is no point in extending the late reg and having the tourney ending at 11am european time.

I would not offer to a client a 6bb stack, i think its a poor experience. I like tho see the gamblers spweing money but thats not good for the games in the long term. 10bbs would be the limit if i were the TD.
