Actually, no. That would be trivial to do in software.

Nice.

Giving Viktor Blom a crash course in HORSE starting with the rules
This should be interesting he's playing the 10K!


What' s 10K to a motherf like him, can you please remind me?

Rast just said he's playing the Onedrop.

Well I did say "probably" lol, I know nothing about programming. The online sites should do that then, fairer than having uneven tables IMO

He also said they're not televising the 50k this year and the final table isn't NLH, I hadn't heard that before, why have they gone back to that format?

The final table isn't NLHE because they aren't televising it since the average viewer doesn't like non NLHE. As for why they aren't televising it, I assume it's a ratings/money thing for ESPN.

seat 1 ftw in the 4max imo

Awesome having Brian Rast in the booth, guy is a freakin beast.

Is this 4max FT? Who's there? How long on break?

+1

6max and 4max tournaments were first played online last I checked. No 6max tournament ever had a 7 handed final table until a live TD got a hold of the format.

I don't think it should happen in 9 handed tournaments either, but tournament directors use the term nine handed to refer to all kinds of combinations of 9 and 10 handed play. Some tournaments are "9 handed" tournaments where 90% of the play is 10 handed.

Taking shorthanded formats and adding players is something else entirely.

The real issue here is that you can come up with a logical reason to add a player to any of the formats(4 max,6 max, 9 max), but the reasons are different for each format. The reason you would add a player 9 handed isn't the same as the reason you would add one 6 handed.

Which leads me to believe the addition is arbitrary in at least some of the formats.

TIM0THEEEEEEE
