Don't know if anyone else has noticed, but the 3pm WSOP deepstack numbers have dropped comparing the last week to a year ago, everyday has had between 300-500 less entries.

Anyone hazard a guess as to why?

I think EDC may have had a lot to do with it. Hotels were booked and expensive if you didn't book ahead of time.

I think it will pick up steam this weekend again with the ladies event, one drop, and that deep stack starting on Thursday.. plus july fourth next weekend.. so watch it go boom!!

They Just announced Thursday's 3pm 235$ deepstack will be at 6pm. Due to the 1500$ mega stack tourney.

Just a brain dead decision. They should push it back to 9 or cancel it before they make people wait to sit at their 1,500 table

If the monster stack is that successful, they will keep pushing it back or outright cancel it, much as they've done for the millionaire maker.

6 pm will be 6 levels in and they prob won't seat any more after that.

Second flight (5 pm) added to Monster Stack bracelet event. Deep stacks cancelled for Thursday AND Friday per link below

The Friday $235 is scheduled for 7pm tonight. The $185 will start at 10pm.

Seriously?

How long have the other dailies been going besides the 3pm?

Are these back on schedule?

Yes, they are. Good reminder though to always follow @kevmath and @wsoptd on twitter

Yesterday the $235 had almost 1,400 players :O

Good question. When do the 5pm and 10 pm deep stacks end, roughly?

10pm like 7am idk about 5pm one

Recent turnouts for the 6pm?

Easiest just to look at posted results:

Are the cages for tournament registration open 24/7 at the WSOP? Where do I go to register for the daily deepstack to avoid the lines?

Yes, 24/7.

I always go to the main cage when registering for the deepstack to avoid the massive line in the Pavilion.

Awesome. Thanks Mavs.

Agree with above just go to main cage a lot faster

I hope they consider making the 3pm a two-day tournament. And more monster stack type tourneys peppered throughout... no more onedrop too

Don't see why they would make the deepstacks 2 day tourneys. They already draw HUGE fields. Rio not gonna wanna invest in more staff to accommodate that. Monster stack obviously drew way more than they expected, so could envision more than 1 of those next year.

They need to add a badugi and/or a-5 triple draw tourney next year imo. Badugi only found in the 10-game mix and dealer's choice and a-5 only in the dealer's choice. Hopefully they bring back the dealer's choice next year. Got almost 500 entrants and was well received by pros who played it. Would be cool to see them bring back the triple stud event. A mixed draw event, with say badugi, 2-7 triple draw, a-5 triple draw and kansas city lowball would be awesome as well.

God I hope they never make the 3pm a two day. That would be awful.

I really like grinding those $235's and to a lot of people obv, they like it too. I think more rec players would be drawn to it , if it was tweaked a little to accommodate.
