SkilfulPoker Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Hey Robin!I wonder if you can change the blind structure in the countdown MTT, so it's not so fast, maybe 8 minute levels instead of 4.With MTT's with a lot of value, I think alot of us would really like to settle into them and play them, but it becomes a bit of a shove fest quickly as the blind levels increase.Thanks!

MoreTBC Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 It starts too late in the evening Euro time for it to have a long structure. Have you read my blog HERE... It's long isn't it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkilfulPoker Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Well i'd much rather an earlier start and some play if the current start time prevented a deeper blind structure :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoreTBC Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Then it clashes with the Sunday Entitled and the €10 Sunday deepstack. They could have just added the money to that but then it would get close to reaching the SE gtd. Have you read my blog HERE...

SkilfulPoker Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 True but i guess not a tonne of people will be playing sunday entitled as you can't buy in directly, also i'm fine playing 4 at a time :D and if people aren't i guess they don't care as they will only be selecting one anyway!p.s. continuing to fight the corner of the increased blind structure at all costs.... :inlove: as you can see :happy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldBurf Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I dont mind the structure, I prefer turbo. Especially when it starts at 8.30 and I have already been playing 2-3 hours.Maybe compromise. 6minutes blinds and slide it back to 8pm start time. :) Not actually Old.

BroederTuck Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Blind structure is fine. As a rec (and the site is still targetting recs I think), I don't want to be grinding late hours on a sunday evening when I need to get up early the next morning. I'd rather play a faster MTT (agreed, more luck will be involved but that's fine by me) then a slow one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkilfulPoker Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Not sure I agree, i'm also a rec that happens to enjoy playing poker, if i want to play flips i can go play roullette, this is a valuable tournament for aspiring poker players, and i'd prefer a deeper structure, each to their own though.

SkilfulPoker Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 by the way i didn't play it this evening, in spite of the overlay due to the structure, I did last week and despite playing my ass off for an hour or two, and being in to the top 20 or something within the space of 10 minutes i went from having 30bbs to 10, and then flipped and was out, so yeah just my take on it, good luck everyone that did / has done / will be though!

Robin-Unibet Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 This tournament has been placed later on the evening as the cherry on the cake.Therefore it is fair to have a faster structure, so it is attractive enough to join for players that played the whole Sunday.I've increased the blind levels to 5 minutes, then it will still end around midnight CET.If you like to play a slower structured tournament I would look at the Sunday Evening deepstack with 10 mins blind levels.

comanimal Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Every minute counts, so thank you :) But I would also like to voice my support for 8 minute levels, because right now it just gets into a shoving bonanza really really quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
