Most peoples calling ranges will be so bad verse this shove that the shover will profit using in correct ranges still.

What is your calling range in this spot? (of the top of your head) Any one can answer this just try answer this quickly as we generally have to make our decisions quickly in the online format of poker.

We all love money, that's why we are signing it. Re-entry will chase away all recreational players because they will get destroyed by player that can competently play a shorter stack. These recreational players need to have fun. Making deep runs is fun. All re entry does is generate rake quicker for the site and benefit a few of the players who are only good and dangerous if they can get a ton of chips. All its doing is saturating the fields with tougher players.

Most people that have played a significant sample will notice that they win more money when the tourneys are freeze outs or rebuys.

I wouldn't mind th he 3 hour formats if they would bring back other f poo rants as well. For example the 1K6Rs and return the 7 pm 2K,which were 98% profitable. To the original format. Even leave the blind level and chip stack the same. Though personally I'd like to see the 15 min level returned.

to illustrate earlier point.. above#2/3
i'll give you my BTN shove range at 10bbs
22+ Ax+ K2s+ K8o+ Q6s+ Q9o+ J7s+ J9o+ T7s+ T9o 96s+ 86s+ 75s+ 65s

ENJOY your variance..

I'm not sure why, with some people liking this format, and some not, why some of the old format tourneys arent re added, ( like live support assured would happen two weeks ago).
MY major problem with all of this is: there are not enough tourneys anymore (overall), and the variety that existed before (preferred) is now gone replaced by only NASH shove fests.

All that being said. I doubt anyone's opinion will be changed and this is just a waste of time.. I should just go make to making adjustments for the games that are offered and whatever, Pick the tourneys I prefer playing in and the sites that offer them.
Exactly bring back the other tourneys and leave the big 10 alone. The fish will still play them and the multi grinders will play them all.

Some of us don't want to play for 8 hours to get 2x our buyin. I'd honestly prefer 2 hour late reg even if it meant lowering guarantees. But more realistic: How about you just mix it up? I mean, does a $10 1k gtd really need TWELVE 15 minute levels of late registration? Have some tourneys where people can sit there and fold to their heart's content and also some non-turbos that don't have 3 hrs of late registration.

Pretty sure they've removed all but one cubed mtts. And that one may be gone soon as they are still reworking the new weekday sched (even tho one main reason cited for creating the new sched was to bring stability to the daily mtt sched...hmmm)

Rebuys? what rebuys? Oh the $11r with a 1k guar or the $1r that had the guar lowered from 1.5k to $750?
