[OFFICIAL] 888 2015 MTT Discussion Thread - Page 17 - MTT Poker Strategy

Can we have more $160 WSOP Step 6's spread throughout the day, the same as last year?

Also how about adding some more objects to throw around the table? Bag of flour, bucket of water for instance.

for eall the 22s 25s fzs,but especially the early ones they all have pretty small amount up top,i understand u cant make biger gts cause of the low field,but dont u think its a good ideea to make them all second chance like typhoon? only see good things coming from that

MVP players get access to freerolls with a lot of value in WSOP tickets, while the rest of the players don't get anything like that and are just forced to see their value tournament in live tournament satellite section.

Do something about it and give other players opportunities to access such tournaments as well.

Agree, should be the same with 30. Also, 1-5USD satellites should have their late reg decreased to like 30-40 minutes and should run more often because now there is just just one every hour pretty much, that is not enough because SNGs do not fill fast and more players prefer satellites instead of SNGs.

Also, Road to WSOP freerolls should be happening at least twice a day if possible.

should incease the $66 breeze guarantee on sundays. has $8k guarantee and got $24k prizepool. could double the guarantee and it would never sniff an overlay.

WSOP Freebuy tournaments, should have at least two tickets guaranteed. It takes over 2 hours to complete and second place gets just a couple of usd (usually less than invested).
Two tickets would bring more players/would motivate to rebuy/add-on more, plus two tickets are needed anyways.

Please add a blue tourney at 12:00 GMT, between Twister and Breeze. The gap is pretty big there, and almost nothing to play, except the 55$ KO.

17:15 EET (15:15 GMT), new 11+R 3k$ guaranteed is otherwise great, but takes rather long time to finish. Took it down today and it took like 6,5 hours with just 194 players, with FT especially lasting very long. Would be more fun playing some rebuys with 8 minute levels.

Could we have few more turbo rebuys with 5$-22$ buy-ins in addition, too? Love playing them, I and think many other players would like to play good value tournaments which don't take too long to finish.

This, maybe call it the Sunday Breeze and can put 20k gtd on it. Yesterday seemed smaller than previous sundays for the prizepool too.

I was low on tables and still skipped the tornado and hurricane. Replace the two with one more big Sunday major. 109$ 30k turbo Sunday earthquake instead of the two at a time between the two. Keep the 10k and 8k ones for midweek

Good ideas, also 100+100 Sunday bounty can be much bigger, too!

Those "turbos" are a joke, last longer than regular tournaments in many other sites and they're also usually brainless megafields. And nowadays Stars(.com) has about 0 interesting rebuy-tournaments, by the way. Outside of O8, I don't even play tournaments there any more (play in about 10 sites but they simply have nothing NLTX worth playing). Instead I play in sites like 888 where there is actually interesting tournaments offered with no need to play mainly just 1000+ / 5000+ player fields.

I don't like playing freezeouts, except if they're O8 or high buy-in majors with soft field and easy sats or something like that. Turbo rebuys are my main MTT game nowadays.

one thing that i thing is lacking across most of the sites is low/midstakes sunday major. like a 33-55 that is classed as an actual major and has sats running throught out the week. 33 or 55 freezout with second chance.. 50k guaranteed maybe in between monsoon and sunday challenge

micro/low buyin tournaments all take too long to complete, including turbo and reg speed

Your turbos need to either have 5 minute blind instead of 6 or less blind levels, like a turbo with 150 players shouldnt take 3 hours imo, and like the other guy mentioned, a reg speed with less than 200 players shouldnt take 5-6 hours
