120/250 b 25 a

It seems to be in the larger tournies, but not in any of the 180 or stt sngs yet.

Also, the 10$ 15k guaranteed has 2000 starting chips now, no longer 1500

Just looked @ the Stars $109 @ 19:00. They added a 3500/7000 level too, which seems strange. From 3000/6000 => 3500/7000, there's a 16% increase. From 3500/7000 => 4000/8000, there's a 14% increase and yet, level 15 => 16 still goes from 1000/2000 => 1500/3000??????

Trade the 3500/7000 level for a 1250/2500 level and 12500/25000 level, imo.

Agreed with MikeJ. 1200(0)/2400(0) or 1250(0)/2500(0) is probably more important than the 3500/7000 level. It's still a nice addition, though

.

The 125/250/25 was a MUCH needed level.

Hopefully this is a trend to review the structures. Some of the SNG structures are bad. The jump from 100/200 to 200/400 in the 45 man turbos is particularly jarring.

Well I cashed in 6/6 stars tournies I played today, I liked the extra 15 minutes of play available thanks to this level. Im a happy camper so far, now if I could win a tourny that isnt a 4/180..
