sorry if this has been answered already but why is the rake for the 320 euro hypers to ept not normal hyper rake?

stars has decided theyre as a rule always going to gouge players for as much rake as possible as fast as possible rather than look at long term health of the games and they dont care what players think about it

everyone else got the memo

As more and more regs realize that edges are small if existent in this format there becomes a higher percentage of recreationals that play it not realizing the high rake. This also benefits Stars as more recs win packages and less winning players win multiple seats.

The structure for those tournaments isn't really equivalent to anything resembling a hyper-turbo except in the speed of level changes. 20,000 starting chips and a fairly standard (e.g. non-hyper) blind structure.

By way of comparison, here's the Hyper-Deep structure for ANZPT-Melbourne

At 30 minutes of play: 250/500 (a50)
At 60 minutes of play: 1750/3500 (a350)
At 90 minutes of play: 8750/17500 (a1750)


...and here's the structure for a normal hyper-turbo satellite:

At 30 minutes of play: 1500/3000 (a600)
At 60 minutes of play: 25000/50000 (a10000)
At 90 minutes of play: 200000/400000 (a80000)


Or more to the point, measured in starting stacks:

30 min: 0.0125/0.0250 (a0.0025) vs. 3.0/6.0 (a1.2)
60 min: 0.0875/0.1750 (a0.0175) vs. 50.0/100.0 (a20.0)
90 min: 0.4375/0.8750 (a0.0875) vs. 400.0/800.0 (a160.0)

90 min: 0.4375/0.8750 (a0.0875) vs. 400.0/800.0 (a160.0)
And now compare it with a reg speed tournament or satellite which charges the same rake % please. It's absurd to charge the same rake for a tournament that lasts significantly shorter.

There ought to be waaaay more deep sats to all 3 mains, certainly the low and mid

a single $75+7 deep sat with 100 runners makes you $700 in rake; that's as much as 4 of the $5.50r 3xts if they had 350 runners in each!

...and there will be, soon. The new $82s to the Main-M were the first addition of quite a few to come for Fri/Sat/Sun.

Rake is not a factor in terms of deciding what type of satellites to schedule.

I have to agree with this. Perhaps 305+15 seems more appropriate.

+1

it's usually the eurekas and sometimes the IPTs. they skip the 10/20 blind level, so maybe it's a copy-paste error that never got fixed/changed (i've mentioned it too a couple of times in the past).
obviously all the 3xT should have the same structure.

yo sick metric, can i get cited in a footnote? jajaja

the 7% rake on the 267.5 gets you 5k chips and 75/150 no antes at 99 minutes in

thats definitely not a hyper

while the 6.66% rake on the 320 gets you 20k chips and 8750/17500 +1750a 90 minutes in

im not gona call it a hyper because youve clearly demonstrated its not



i will ask

is it fair its raked the same?

if the 320 gets 10 runners, how much of the 3k prize pool is itself rake on the target?

A better comparison would be what's the blind/stack ratio to a normal speed tourney. Even a regular turbo for that matter.

Please consider running EPT sats earlier on the day. Especially saturdays would be good to run them early

why so few choices to sat into the warm-up?? only 2xT and a couple of $11 freezouts and rebuys, with the 11s having 0 seats guaranteed! just mind-boggling!

Now that SCOOPS done perhaps you guys would consider trying out that suggestion where the winner of a sat gets entry into the WU, SM, Sun 500, Big 109 and Big 55 or some variation of big Sundays.

would you mind putting the last 2xT satty to the big $109 a little earlier, like 19:00 EET instead of 19:25? the sat lasted 2h, so i got in the target tour 1,5h later with a ~25bb stack which isn't good...

and isn't it time to put a break at the $11 Sunday Million satty? it's been asked multiple times already.

pleeeease never let any deadline sat expansion occur untill someone at stars gets their calculator out and makes sure no deadline sat scheduled from that day foreward ever completes later than 20 minutes into a target

given 'deep sats' have shown to be popular any chance of getting normal non turbo sats added.

Feel like a broken record on this but since u listened on the deep sats there is hope.

Not asking for a ton just a few on a sunday for example I think the warm up and milly have like 2 non turbo sats that run in the morning.

lol.fr runs tons to their majors and also they do nice rebuy and cubed sats where u get the rebuy +add on as a sat prize.

By non turbo I mean 1500 or 3k stacks 10 min blind structures either FO or rebuy.
Not the old style 15 min blinds terrible structure some tourns have either.
