Yeah looks like the 10rebuy is just off the schedule for the 33.00. Not sure why you cant fit both. If you want to improve a MTT schedule dont take off one of your popular mtts in the same buyin range to put in a new one its counter productive.

Not cool to take out the $11 R+A and replace it with a (semi)turbo.

$11 rebuy is gone? That was one of the only tourneys I played. That is upsetting

I looked at numbers and yes it did overlay not just this week. As i mentioned it will take a while to really sort the schedule out but for now my instructions are to make small changes which will reduce the huge overlay we have had over the months. When you say semi turbo? I dont understand. A tourney that takes 5 hours or so to finish that plays between 20 - 34 bb throughout seems like a pretty decent structure. If you disagree then we can discuss. I like having these discussions for sure.

1000% agree with the above poster the the Deep structure is the best structure on the site and it’s not even close.

More chips does not make a structure better. A structure that is faster early and slower late. If it’s too deep early no one bust and the structure breaks down late to finish in a reasonable time. The new 50k starting stack is exactly opposite. You have 700/1400 900/1800 1400/2800 1800/3600 2250/4500 but skip 7k/14k 9k/18k 14k/28k 18k/38k 22.5k/45k. To many added levels early and too fast late

The new 11am ended reg with a little more then 1/2 the field cashing and 23bb avg. seems reasonable. Let’s look when we get to final 2 and final table.

FWIW I tracked all the average stacks.
New structures you start with less bb not the standard 500 or 300 bb etc when the early levels are not worth playing. This allows for the tournaments not to run 8 hours and to play with a decent average stack throughout.

I have created a skype and im willing to speak to anyone that wants to in there. Just talking about tournaments. Let me know in PM

If concerned about the overlay on it slap a 7k guarantee on it which it will crush and see what happens. If it doesnt hit that consistently(it will I can almost guarantee it) then remove it.

It makes no sense to remove them if anything make these nightlys lower the guarantee(despite them nearly always beating them) and have a better tourney schedule then other places that dont offer rebuys.

50 rebuy 20k guarantee hits 31,655. Thats what I mean these tourneys kill it. I get its a Saturday but even through the week rebuys do well. Not sure why they would be removed you could throw a 3-50 rebuy nightly with smaller guarantees and they would smash all week long bringing in more players to the site.

The link shows you the added tournaments that add up to an extra $100k guaranteed. The normal tournaments, though, will have 50% higher guarantees. That is how I read it

Edit - I just looked in the client and the normal tournaments for Monday actually do not have 50% higher guarantees

As much as I disliked the decision to remove the $11 R+A from the grid, I have to say I really like some of the new structures, deeper and more playable, hope to see more tournies go in that direction.

I mentioned earlier a possible replacement for the current Mega. 14 levels with starting stack 10k, last blind level following the current blind structure would have 500/1000 blinds.

I also wouldn’t mind if the test structure replaced the monster mtts. I hate the monsters and really only play them on Sundays

I too would like shorter late reg. People can late reg ten spots away from the money with 5BB, which would normally fine, but then they stall every hand to get a cash. It's quite annoying.

Biggest issue with that is the seating script, like WPN had cpl yrs back. You can time it to seat when a new table opens and the same people do it all the time. They all time down and one bozo d/c every orbit. Fighting for the min cash gold!!

Do you guys realize people stall at all stakes close to the bubble, no matter what the structure or format

This is different. This is a coordinated effort. Most sites wns up suspending players that disconnect beyond timebank

Yes it is a coordinated effort. 5 minutes away from the end of late reg like 20 new 5 BB stacks enter and stall every hand. This is because the bubble is so close to the end of late reg, if the bubble happend like 30 mins after late reg less of these 5bb stacks would make it there in the first place.

Hi guys,

you will find some changes I have made to some tournaments. At the moment they are small changes. Structure, time, increased some buy ins but kept the fee as it was before. We have a series coming in November and I based the whole schedule around the regular schedule to fill in the gaps and not conflict.

I have instructions and whilst the schedule is like it is I have to try and improve things for now and then in January have a complete new schedule ready to go.

Some will complain, some will like the changes but all feedback again is always great.
