I was at gala tonight, best not talk about the poker as you can tell by the time no money was made. Yet a few things are a changing.

1. Every Sunday (apart from first of the month which remains 100 rebuy) will now be a 50 pound pot limit rebuy from the 10th july.

2. They are changing the blind structure so there will be an extra 2 levels (150/300 and one higher up) also there will be a level in the rebuy period presumably up to 50/100 from 25/50.

My views are that i don't think number 1 is a great invention, tho apparantly it was agreed in consultation with some of the regulars. I would prefer say a weekly freezeout or possibly a no limit tournament.

I think changing the blind structure is a good. Any views?

Any introduction of extra blind levels must be welcome and having a blind raise during rebuys will not harm the game (it happens in the 100 already).

Do you know if the 50 will be 1000 points starting chips?

Will there be dealers for the 50 rebuy tourneys ?

Agreed Adam, how about a 100 freeze-out with dealers on a Monday ?

Or a Tuesday even.

50, 100, 200, lovely lovely lovely.

But remember THIS.......

There are many folks to whom even 50 is too much. Please don't forget the 5, 10, & 20 guys.

I don't know the true stats, but my guess is that 95% of the poker market as a whole falls into the "20 is enough" bracket. Ignore these guys at your peril, for they are a market, and they are the future of poker.

Football eulogises about the Beckhams and Rooneys, & they get paid awesome sums of money. How does the football industry earn money out of guys that are being paid obscene sums? They recoup it by aiming their marketing at guys who play football on Sunday morning. Hundreds of thousands of them. One cant exist without the other.

The other thing that occurs to me is the lack of no-limit tourneys.

So a no-limit freeze-out would be ideal.

20 would suit me more than 50. I'm sure myself and several friends would be there most weeks.
