There is little I can do here besides changing the tournament to 2-day. The tournament ran for 15 hours and 40 minutes. Players were acting very, very slowly towards the end as well. The change to 15 minute blinds had little to no noticeable impact at the tail end of the tournament. The pay jumps are just too big!
what about the problem that if anniversary SM is 2 day event that big %% of players left will use call a friend joker(sell % to some better player and let them finish the job, i am also aware that rec woudnt have top pros as friends but i'am prety sure that 80%+ of player left (if it stops like last 27 or smth like that) will not be one player per hand) ???
about 320 full kno just lol, i stop playing Saturdays when you introduce 75% kno and the only MTT that was good was that 320kno and you manage to ruin that too, just lol,
if you want to change smth you should make postive changes like for EX:
-
in PKO MTT #1 & #2 get same amount of $$$ and they play for knos HU
-
introduce mix PKO/freezeout MTTs (is it PKO until money 25% or 33% of buy in, and after people get itm (ITM % should be ~10% or smth like that) people get the $$$ on their head on their account and tournament continues as freezeout)
- 100% pko can only be popular and masive at 5$-55$ range 6max turbo/hiper because almost every one can afford it and gamble up, but i imagine that
90% pko 6 max turbo/hiper will be way way more popular in that buy in range 5$-55$, with rest of the money/prizepool (10% of the buy ins) payed to final 6
