Yes all valid points and mintrav is right if  you do late reg you do run the risk of having less chips than people still left in with
bigger antes and blinds so it is not an advantage.
And of course we want more players bigger prize pools so if late reg is a way to get this then no problems with it  ;D ;D

I finished 110th out of 111 runners.  Hope that makes you feel better.   ;D ;D ;D

Appreciate all the feedback guys.  Means we can always look to improve as we go.


Ok, how about we allow Leigh to have multiple entries (a bit like the Full Tilt tourneys). That way we swell the pot without adding any extra talent to the player pool.

Just a thought.  ;)

There is nothing unscrupulous about it.


I"m sorry if that sounded like an accusation John, it was merely a hypothesis. I"m not having a go at yourself or anyone else. I just prefer to know the size of the field when a tourney begins.

If not having a late finish is a consideration, then it seems counterproductive to encourage the number of runners to swell by 30 or 40% (or possibly more), during the first hour. I"m just having a moan because I played crap last night, I feel rough and the Day Nurse tabs haven"t kicked in yet..  ;)

Perhaps you should late reg tonight Leigh to guarantee some points :D :D :D :D

Can"t see how late reg will give players an advantage. It just annoys players who go out first in 80th and then find they finished last in 111th. Still means 1 point whatever for finishing last.

Late reg just means if you finish last you are further away from the winner and have more to catch up in later games.

I think the reasoning for late reg here solves more problems (earlier finish / latecomers can still play) over creating more problems (upsetting people who donk out earlier only to finish behind a late regger)

I"m just glad that my suggestion for S5 has been taken up

"could we have monthly tighty type blonde leagues that help support the sponsor?"

"Bunch of 5"s" though come on - surely "pieces of 8" would have been more apt

I must take this more seriously, but I get dealt cards, and they look so good to play.  An improvement on last night, good luck to those still in.

Looks like we"ll have over 85 runners, to go with last nights 111.  Thanks everyone.   ;D

I should point out that I am a PLO specialist.  You think I can play aggressive with 2 hole cards, tomorrow is a whole new level.   :D

Don"t agree with the late reg at all but nevermind.... Just finished 5th... Very happy to make the final table.




Although I don"t like or agree to the late reg after tonight and not being home in time I have just figured out how to use it to my advantage....

Just need somebody else now to log me on tomorrow...

Is there any way you can make sure that the lobby info contains the details about Late Reg and Re-Buy periods?

Can you at least confirm how long the Late Reg and Re-Buy periods are for tonight"s sat.

Thankyou muchly.
