This is annoying, these sats were very good value for players.

This actually happened because the larger stacked players decision time and time banked their way down to 3BB average, I watched the last 3 tables myself, this meant we had 13 players left at 8.20pm. Having played "normally" it should have been all over by 8.15pm and this would not have happened. I set all the structures for live and online, I will look at this and adjust because ipoker won't be fixing this in the immediate future.

Cheers Simon

I appreciate what you're saying here about 'normal' play but if the larger stacks know that the comp ends at 8:20 then they're playing perfectly by folding every hand and time banking.

As George says there's a whole different dynamic with the forced ending at a set time.

Could you maybe adjust it so that 1st to 8th get a seat and anyone else gets £230 split between them? Might encourage a little bit of play amongst the guys from 7th and below.

There's no way you'll stop the lower stacks stalling though. It a perfect strategy to stall in a comp which is affected by time and I'd be doing it myself if I thought it would secure me a seat.

[DTD-ACES]

Thanks for the feedback. As I said we will make some adjustments within the parameters of i poker.

I played the satty last night and was aware of the sudden stop time as it does warn you, even so was a bit strange being around 8th and wondering if things would suddenly change to my detriment - and completely outside my control. Fortunately it went my way. I wouldn't have been best pleased if it hadn't but then I couldn't moan - why would you invest £15 in something without an understanding of what you were buying?

Assure you your view would be different if you'd just missed out. It's a pretty unique situation which needs to be avoided by starting the satty a little earlier

It wasn't aimed at you George, more defence of the overall situation. I do understand, and that's why I stated I wouldn't of been best pleased.

As it is (and this is how dtd can never win) I late regged and would have missed it if it was an early start, having just got back from kids footy.... Anyway made final table but was pushed out of a Sunday seat.....

[George2Loose]
