Are ambitious guarantees fuelling the need for card rooms to max out re-entries in order to make their guarantees??  I would love to know what ratio of players are influenced solely by size of the guarantees being offered by card rooms.  When it comes to sub £500 tournaments - DTD are always the top venue on most peoples list, so does a £300k guarantee verses a £200k tournament really create larger fields of unique players?? or are the numbers the same with more of them players willing to fire several bullets??  both sums of money are substantial so I cant see it making much of a difference to most players.

One could argue that there is No need for re-entries at all as there is an ever increasing amount of day 1 flights to chose from, often two or even three the same day!!

There does appear to be a consensus on here that late registration is good for the game (especially for those stuck in traffic, cant get out of bed, plan to avoid early action on the felt,  or people who love being fashionably late or lazy).  but how many levels of late registration should be allowed??  if the day 1's are 12 levels long is 3, 6, 9 or 11 levels of late registration acceptable??  

Consistency in the late registration must be adhered to! if day 1A has late reg until the end of level 3, the final flight of the week should not have late reg until 9/11. as has been seen on several occasions.

There are pros and cons to a re-entry and like most things in life it just depends on what side of the fence you sit on!!   RED-DOG makes a very clear, simple and effective argument against  Mr Multi bullets which most people would agree with.

Let me throw another spanner into the works:

 If you hate same day re-entry then you will hate the deal with Bank Roll Supply, effectively giving many players on their books free unlimited re-entry tickets, so that they call you for fun with bottom pair or air and try to bad beat you on every hand. The game has no value to the player who has unlimited re-entries and is effectively free rolling the torney!  So Im not exactly sure why rob has created this discussion thread as he is instrumental in this happening in most of the deep stack torneys, I fully understand the business sense behind the decision - of trying to fill an overlay gap in the prize pool, but it spoils the game for the many who have to put up with horrendous beats month after month and all the while leaving a sour taste in the mouth on every occasion.

I am sure if your are a BRS player then you certainly wont agree with the above, but when you are playing for free then life really is good I suppose!!

Don't shoot the messenger, as I have heard the above expressed by many regular players but I am the person vocalising this and after careful consideration do agree with them.

I would imagine Rob is thinking about changing it, but would like some player feedback first. Rob often sounds out players views, which I would say is a good thing.  It's a discussion thread. I wish all cardrooms did that sort of thing.

As to BRS players maybe calling off light - the more the merrier please. Why would you not like that?

I am a massive fan of Rob and what he is creating at dtd.  The point I was trying to make is that he is instrumental in using this to the max with some players having unlimited free re-entries,  since he relies on this so heavily especially in the deep stack events, is there really a capacity to change it??

In many peoples opinions this scews the game when you are entering a torney and attempting to play your best poker and navigate through a field, when many others are calling off all their stack with 7 2 and getting there and crucially being told during the break by that player who knocked you out 'that he would never have called his stack off if he didn't have unlimited reloads' that always leave a sour taste!!

Its the same reason why when you have learned the art of poker and consider yourself a decent player and are happy to play at a great venue like DTD, you really go back to playing £1 pots at your mates house or at the local because you know that everyone is calling with anything and the best hand rarely holds up.  I just don't want DTD to have that type of reputation. 
fish food for thought.

mathematically the best hand will hold up to the percentages over the long term yes?

so you want these players in the game, giving you chips?

Rich that's a very valid point, the answer is an ironic  'definite maybe YES', unless your on the receiving end I suppose!

I am not bashing rob for doing this as it makes financial sense and clearly he is an astute business man and poker fanatic,  I just hope that it does not detract the many loyal supporters of the club in the longer term.

I am a support of the club, but hope that Rob can navigate through to calmer waters!  bring on pokerfest week!!!  good luck to everyone giving it a bash!!!

similar things have happened before but I have never taken to send them feedback. I will keep everyone updated on the response. its off my chest now. lol.

just had a reply to my email, a standard reply saying that they use a random number generator and this is all above board.  shame they didn't read my email as I was not complaining about the rng.  poor show and terrible customer service. rant over.

Just to make matters worse, I opened up a live chat with the party poker team, viswas was looking into the matter and moments after he exited the chat. clearly to complicated for his paygrade to resolve.  so \I have just sent them an email.  So not only glitches in the software but awful customer service!!!!
