The only difference between praying in a Church and praying at the poker table is that when you pray at the poker table you really mean it.

The no deals policy makes for some dull final tables

Discuss

- Players sit around for the first four levels of finals laddering and not wanting to gamble it up

- At 50-100k+ the blinds force some action, but the shortstacks can still wait and wait

- the payout jumps are too steep to make good finals when combined with no deals makes it like watching cement set.


I am seeing players with 5-7x bb here folding the button in unopened pots. Not George or Andrew, the other players.

Tough to watch.

 

payouts are much too steep if your not allowing deals. Flatten the payout structure OR allow deals imo. Play is much too shallow on these 'deepstack' FT's for anyone to play, when avgs are <25bb you just dont have the room to be 3betting light and 4betting on a regular basis. Also, good players will not peel flops on these stack sizes. Therefore you will see less flops and are just waiting for people to cooler each other.

All these reasons are why more recreational players who will not play for these sums of money very often will nitroll to 5bb or whatever because they are scared and are happy to just ladder.

-Flatten the payout structure
-Allow no deals.
-Keep the new levels in.
-Play more levels on day 1 (and have a longer clock on day 2 (50min-1hr)

These are the changes I would make if i was TD.

People seeing flops = people busting quicker. Allowing more play should let this happen.

Just my 2cents.
