I'm not in "the office" today, but word reaches me that they have tweaked the Blind Structure, taking on board your comments, to make it more playable tonight.

Someone lead me to believe that the structure had been altered, had it? Not that I could tell.

Slower structure please suits

For once, I'll be honest - yes, she is a good friend of mine, and she's a truly lovely Lady. Canadian, though...Lives in Brighton, of all places, but don't worry, she does not know Flushy.

I have the great, but intimidating, pleasure, of working with her on the show on Sunday night, & I'm well looking forward to it, though after the show she & Carlo have put on tonight, I may struggle to be half as effective. It'll be beauty & The Beast I think.

Are you going to spend all night trying it on like Carlo is?

Nah, I play the "hard to get" card. I'm a natural at that.

gone in 94th (although sucked out earlier with A8 with AK), all in or fold time so got it in with QT vs 77 no help, like the software and the 6 handed tables but the structure is way to fast, well over half the field gone in an hour...

Yes, it is fast, but it's only a 3 hour show, & they need to get it finished before show ends. They are looking into starting the comp earlier, to allow more play, but 6 handed play is generally more aggressive. Give them a week or two to find the best "balance", they will, I'm quite sure.

Thanks Tikay, and it is great sky are open to the feedback they receive.  I think the concept is excellent and I will play again I'm sure.  Its low stakes and fun, and as your only decisions are all in or fold it is less likely I make a complete fool of myself on live tv!!!
