The number will be closer to 1 than 15

You missed my point. Sure, if someone enters the 5K or 2.5K and makes it to the FT, they will know not to enter the High Roller. But I'm pointing out the other way around. If someone's first choice is the HR, they can't come early and play the 5K or 2.5K as well because of the conflicting FTs. Just pointing out the theoretical downside. I don't know if this will actually affect participation in any way.

Making the final tables all start at 4pm or so would give a little breathing room to the 1k to play down to ft on day 2.

Late reg in the 1k is 630pm. Somehow by noon the following day they are at the final table.

I think most of the players would likely play both and if the $25K is what they are coming for specifically they would not play the 5K or 2.5K anyway. I already know some players that are just coming in for the High Roller and not the 5K Championship.

Either way I am excited to see how it plays out, thank you for your input.

They lose some time by having some of the breaks three levels instead of four.

(You dont need to have a special break just to color off chips. Just do it on the normal break. )


I would have preferred 40 min levels, With ft starting a few hours later. But in all honesty its not that bad. It succeeds in their goal. They have to get thru at least 500 players down to a ft in one day.

The $5k is basically a wpt $3500 with 30k chips and only hour levels until ft. And skips level one and two.

It seems like they could easily get to the final table by day 4 without skipping anything.

I know these are the big ones that get everyone else all abuzz. But I was looking for structure sheets for the non-holdem events. Do they exist yet?

Would this series follow a similar format?

I have always been a fan of top heavy pay out structures. I an not found of spreading the prize money to accommodate bottom min payouts. Top heavy is definitely the way to go.

Structure Sheet states Paychart A...William can you post pay chart A us? I busted two hours ago and staff has been fine with no major problems. I will be buying back in tomorrow. Only thing I saw was earlier today floor was at the podium talking to another floor for a while when we had two seats open. After about 25 minutes he picked up the seating passes.
