Re: Turning Stone August 8-21, 2011 ESHC Heartland Poker Tour M.E. 500k Guarantee

Looking forward to playing some poker in a couple of days.

I got a room in the hotel, one king bed. Anyone know what kind of amenities are in the room? Maybe a small refrigerator.

My first time at Turning Stone. Anyone know what kind of turn out they had for the main event last year?

I'll be at table 4 to start off Saturday.

I'd like to play a 1/2 500max plo game if anyone would be willing to get a interest list up on Thurs, when I get up there. 5/5 may be too much for me, at least until i bink the 560.

Idk I'm thinking that event should have been paying out 45 spots max. Biggest thing I don't like though is the mincash. I would prefer it closer to doubling your buyin.

I just checked your payout structure table, and it looks like 400+ entries is the only time this happens. Any smaller turnout pays closer to 10% of the field. Why is that?

This has been in exsistance for awhile I amlooking into changing it I the reason is the 401-530 is a large gap if we had 530 players it would be more in line instead of 438. But like I said I am looking at changing the structure.

Changing a structure 3 days prior to the event does not sound like a good idea.

I personally do not mind that structure and bought in based on that structure so I hope your plan is to make changes to the structure for next year.

Having said all that I will be playing even if the structure is changed. I would ask that an announcement be made of the changes at the tournament.

I assume NoGimmicks means he'll change the payout structure for future tournament series?
