I think these are the tournaments that are nice for re-entries in a vacuum. It does however lower the chances for recreational players to cash the thing, so I'd say in the long run it's better not to do it. The vast majority of players that will make the money will cash-out because they are winning players.

the Sunday Crocodile needs a nice 10-20 seat gtd 15-30$ satellite
the Mega Deep only has turbo sats and as well needs a well structured non turbo mega sat with 20 seats (can also lead into running tourney)

sats often get cancelled so I advise a ****load of sub-satelllites that make the target basically non-cancelable since it gets enough runners every time.

I don't really like this trend. You need to vpip way more so tourneys take more focus. But I don't think you win a lot more per se.

PLEASE!!!!!

15 MINUTE BLINDSLEVEL ON CROCODILE.

Also on the 109 tornade HUrricane etc.

The bigger buy in tourneys have worse structure than som of the smaller buy ins. (12 instead of 15 minutes blindlevel)

So please make 15 minute levels at least on the Crocodile (the nightly as well).

Looks like 888 get into the break and stars still dealt another hand. Your break already is a bit short...

You had most valuable 1k event across all sites. By making main event reentry regs have more advantage against recs. 1M gtd freezout > 1.5M gtd re-entry. If it is not a guarantee issue and you want rake more money, you can easilly do it by extending your series schedule. There is definitely room for that. It also kind of ruins the unique playing experience. When you have to worry about tournament life in event which is run twice a year, you will likely remember all the tought decisions even one year later. Re-entry factor makes XL Main Event not special and I think that your biggest MTT Event is meant to be special.

I can assure you our Main Event will still have super value though, due to our 3 months of satellites, including different paths which will allow many recreational players in. We will see how the Main Event goes this time and will consider this decision again for future series.

Mega Deep is very long as it is. Will consider it for the Mega dozen.
