Smaller starting stacks, shorter blinds.....we"re not heading toward turbo tourney"s are we........I guess we could get a couple in per night  ;D

Vote no for short blinds


As for that - 4k starting stacks, put the blind levels back to what they were?

Snyder"s formula again:

Chips    Minutes          Pateince Factor      Skill Level

5,000    15                 17.42                   6
4,000    15                 15.19                   6
3,000    15                 12.79                   6

5,000    12                 12.68                   6
4,000    12                 11.15                   5

3,000    12                 09.38                   4

5,000    10                 09.84                   4
4,000    10                 08.59                   4
3,000    10                 07.24                   3




I reckon 4,000 with 15 minute blinds could be the answer, possibly?  Even 3,000 starting stack would provide a more "skillful" tournament.

Agreed. 12 mins is too short, but the 4000 stating stack is ok

Just to say the 4000 starting chips seems a lot better for a school night and I don"t think the reduction had any adverse affect. That said I would have liked to have been up a little bit longer.
Often the correct decision is the hardest to reach

 ;D
The 12 min blinds and 4000 chips last night was just about right, I for one have to be up at 6am and 2400 to 0100 finish is too late for me, went out 23rd to pay da rakes  jh js 7h 7s  against  kh ks but at 2240 just about right!!!!!

Well it finished at about midnight... after "a lot of luck & bad calls" I made the final 3 with over half of the chips... and finished 3rd!  :-\

Had a bit of (bad) "luck", in my quest for Silver - to make the full set - when getting it in with the best hand (for once) and losing... very next hand it was all over.

1st StuartHopkin
2nd (Not sure, I"ll check PT)
3rd TheNewRio

As always, better to be lucky than good.
Alan

PS. My vote would still be for 3000 & 15 min blinds. It would still finish between midnight and 1.00am but with a bit more play early on.

I finished 2nd, dont mind the format, played a few of the Pokerstars tourneys last season, they were worse. Didnt mind starting stacks or blind levels. This is the first one i have played so far in season 2. When do the rankings get published (need to know how far behind i am). Well done all - Ul Newrio, it was looking like u and Stuart 1 - 2, there seemed to be a relucatance for you two to get involved whilst i was short stacked. Catch u all on Sunday.

The rankings are currently up to date up to the 15th December.

The next update will be shortly after we receive the data from Blue Square - there"s no  guarantee how long that will be though.
