well done!
it was a great structured tourney, and it seriously played like a $5fo, the field was incredibly soft, i guess because it had sattys running full time for 3 months for it.

Have to disagree Benny. I thought it was an awful structure. Midway through the tourney it basically became a turbo, not quite a turbo but close. You would think they would make the tourney really deep so most of the better players would get through. What am I saying?? I got through  oops. embarassed

fk you 😀

 

i guess they could have made it 20 min levels, but 5k stack and 15 min levels is pretty good. most satellites are going to play shallower because people always pass on marginally +ev spots, because tourney life is sooo much more important than in a regular tourney

True

But if I owned a website and was going to have a players representing my site, I would make the qualifying tourney as deep as possible, just gives the better players a much better chance to go through. Instead they've got a donkey like me playing for them.

Please for turbo players, I'm not saying you're not good players, turbo regs are good players but rely on volume, this was just one tourney.

I was checking the lobby all the time and the average was fluctuating between 15-20BBs.  One thing for sure, I would never had made if with out the knowledge I've picked up from the vids on this site. Thank you TPE.

i agree, 20 min levels would have been better (and the $525 sattys on stars are 5k stacks and 20 min levels)

I didn't mind the tourney, the structure could have had longer blind levels… pretty sure someone said to me that they thought they were longer when he checked several days earlier.
