[QUOTE=gregz41;46791845]Why does it have to be psko to replace what you feel is an underachieving tournament? Personally, I'd love to see a decent gtd reg speed freeze outs that are well planned and don't suffer from canibalism added to the schedule. The only tournaments with decent $ up top that are regspeed are bigs. I'm really excited for the SCOOP because it will give me a chance to play deepstack poker and not watch boards run out in an attempt to make money.


soooo trueee, bring the poker back please

The $27 Omania ended late reg too early today by quite a bit.

The lowest finish place eliminated in this time was 23rd and it pays 18 places.

that just means he busted right at the start when there were only 23 players entered, right? late reg did close mega early tho

edit: the lobby is really confusing, honestly not sure what happened here

Please make the 11r action hour at 21:45 CET 6-max. The format is so much more enjoyable that way.

Correct.

I have been told previously that reasons for late reg to close early are max players are reached or someone is eliminated that would put the tournament into the money.

I was just using what I said to show that it wasn't the case.

ahh, understood.
04-28-2015 , 09:15 PM
perhaps any further entrants would have bumped the payouts from 18 to 27 places though

Bryan, u have the 5$ 2r 1a at 16:00 ET with 8k gtd and another 5$ 2r 1a at 17:00 ET with 5k gtd, why u dount turn the first one 2h late reg and change the other? Its very deep, if somebody late regs it with 2h he would have 12k at T250 if they spend the 2 rebuys and 1 addon, even if he decide spend just 5$ it still playable.

plus would give more time to the 2 rebuys be actually used for the ones that dont rebuy untill they lose all their chips. U could turn it in 10k as it starts and then make it bigger when possible

It would become a very nice tournament again instead of 2 medium ones, maybe even change the second one to a 5r action hour 6max if u feel like

This makes sense, thanks. A bit dense from me here.

Is it that hard? then why big 16.50 isnt even doubled on sundays? Normal gtd is 12.5k and sundays you make it 20k... absolute non sense mr bryan.

YES. Pls do it Bryan.. There are plenty of reasons why these would be awesome. They will be appreciated by players of all levels, pros and recs alike. I plead with you to reconsider your stance on this issue. It is what we all desire.. If the mini super tuesday is not on the agenda then pls at least try the Little Thrill 109 for one week.. i bet it would smash a 100k guarantee with ease.. It really is a must.

Add mini-Thrill on Friday to fill that Friday gap everyone has been posting about. Add mini-ST on Wednesday and boom both days taken care of.

Why is there no flagship game on a Friday? Other than Saturday seems like the best day for something big in the evenings (With a smaller version) That's heavily promoted with Sats throughout the day.

Is the answer:

Spoiler:
Data?

What about dpeters antes post? Huge +1 to that

Ok a micros issue, I know I know, boring to you high stakes. But here we are.

Played a $5.40 turbo knockout this afternoon. The structure is one of those silly ones where the blinds increase really quickly. 10/20, 15/30, 25/50, 50/100, 75/150 etc. Wouldn't have played it if I realised it but that's my mistake.

Anyway that's not the issue. The issue is late registration is open for 1 hour, and at that point blinds are 500/1000. Are you really making it possible for people to late reg a freeze out with 3 big blinds?! Smarter players obviously check the structure and starting stack and current level before late regging. But some newer players who get home from work and just want to fire something up quickly might join without be realising and then be really really annoyed. Why not make late reg 20 minutes (30 big blinds) or 30 minutes (15 big blinds) instead?
