Was it not just for the main event that people were complaining that it was just a crap-shoot? They got 10000 starting chips for £1500 and on the same blind structure as the one being used at Luton.

You cant say anything about the blind structure yet either, the one at the Vic was fixed - before the event started. Who knows they may need to change the one at Luton yet if it appears that they are not going to finish in time.......

So you get 10000 starting chips for a £500 freezeout and 10000 chips for a £1500 freezeout - now you'll get people complaing that they aren't getting the right value for the extra £1000!!

Surely for the rebuy by increasing the amount of chips received for your £200 you'll end up decreasing the prizepool?

<post edit comments: apologies but after rereading the schedule i realize that there is only one rebuy event - the omaha which is limited to one rebuy/add on only and therefore my last comment about decreasing the prizepool is not relevant. (i thought the first event was a rebuy)>

Tighty,

That looks very good, can I ask if any changes will be made to their regular weekly events?

So, what will these structures mean?

For the events with 10,000 chips in midweek loads of players are going to come back for day 2 and not make the money. Thus wasting a day off work with no reward. Wait and see how many people grumble when they realise this..

(I finalled in the shootout at a Luton event last year... very slow for the first table...and lightening fast for the final. Ridiculous surely?)

I will waste my breath one more time saying it would be better to have a fast structure early and have a maximum of 18 players coming back for day 2...and then slow down the clock so when the money is being played for...

Great structures for pro's maybe. Bad structures for people who have to work for a living...
