Planet Hollywood GOLIATH 2018 Draft - Page 3 - WSOP and Tournament Circut

Couple issues with the draft.

Will chops be allowed at final table? I don't recall, but I remember they weren't allowed last year?

75 + 25 seems like a wierd price point for your big bill NLH. I would rather prefer around the 150 dollar buyin level. 100 dollar seems too low and too high of a rake.

yes, we allow chops at the FT as long as the tourney ends when a chop is agreed upon. we don't allow the prize pool to be altered and play to continue.

$100 is a good price point for someone looking for the value of a decent starting stack and value. We certainly want to offer something for everyone with all different bankroll sizes.

id keep it as is, the 5k last year did ok-ish in terms of field size. id add another event in the 1k-2k range for ppl who want to play a slightly smaller buy-in. id also (and admittedly I'm repeating myself here) reconsider scheduling it for the middle of June; later on in the month or just before the main as it was last yr is much better imo.

Hi Chris,
I've been going to the WSOP for the last 10 years and added the Goliath Milly the last 2 years. Just want to say I really like the Phamous series and wanted to add that I (as well as sentiment with some other players that I've conversed with) hate the new turbo structure of the Colossus which is why a lot of us have moved to the Goliath Milly. So if possible, I would rather pay a little more for a better time/structure. Thanks.

Might be too high for a 1-day event, 1200$ or 1500$ would be more attractive I think

Maybe. I'm trying to middle the event I guess. It wrapped up very quickly on day 2 from what I remember and that was at a $5k buy in and a lot of chips. That's why I felt we could lessen the chips a bit (and buy in + juice) and have a nice one day event.

Sounds good to me. 3k or under is good for a one day. Keep date where it's at please.

Shot in the dark but maybe make it a 6-max plo as well?

The PLO High Roller will be 8 max, I may be able to switch one of my other PLO events to 6 max.

Sounds good. Maybe the PLO on 7/9 could be closer to 1k and a 6-max? Day after the wsop 3k PLO 6-max

Chris,
The last 2 years at least you have had a 6 max during the week of 6-4 to 6-8 focused around the collosus and the wsop 1500 6 max. This was perfect as you catered to the lower buyin collosus crowd who might want to also play a lower buyin 6 max. The turnout was great. Why are you changing that?

Disappointed to not see a seniors event, or any other event around the Seniors weekend @WSOP. Would be nice to have one-day event on Thursday June 14 for early arrivals and/or event on Saturday for seniors who bust out at WSOP on Friday. But, you can't please everyone!

Will consider a warm up. Curious to see if anyone has interest in a warm up on that Thursday.

Awesome that you are listening to all the calls for the Alt/Mixed Games. Very much appreciated.

Only adjustment that i feel REALLY STRONGLY about is that I wish that 6/12 Triple Draw game was pure 2-7TD and not mixed.

I absolutely get running the mixed TD event right before the corresponding WSOP event, but by the same token, I think the 6/12 TD event should link to the 6/13 WSOP 2-7TD event, so we can get our warmup hands in. I don't come out for the mixed event, and really don't feel like boning up on it as it's only gonna throw off my game for the next day. I'd probably just play 2-7TD Sats at the Rio

Thanks for listening!

Fyi...Be prepared to play 4 or 5 handed if u late reg, while all other tables are 9 or 10 handed. Oh and sign up with ur buddies as u will be at the same table if u late reg. In other words, too many quality venues to even mess w/ this series. Complaints will be flying in as soon as event starts, bet on it.

Thanks! Did not see the additional events at bottom (why separate?)

I'm coming in on Thursday and would love a warm-up event -- late afternoon start would be great as an alternative to the DDS at Rio.
