Super Roller

Anyone else think the blind increments after the break were utterly terrible?

I mean WTF is this???

IDONKCALLU

The_Don90

You could have a 200k start stack and start the blinds at 10k/20k and we could call the tournament a MEGA MEGA stack! Having a 10k start stack is irrelavent with the dramatic blind skips.  Copy stars structures and bring in the antes.

yeah the structures awful, i hear people going on about how good the structure is and i cant help but laugh, no your wetting your knickers because  you have a 10k starting stack get a grip.

I don't think it matters so much with 15 minute levels and no antes. Certainly doesn't warrant a thread/'wtf is this'.

5 mins after the blind levels went from 500/1000 to 50,000/100,000 with a running 10K ante on the FT

FCHD

Thanks. That adds nothing of value whatsoever

Sky_Poker

Let's keep it civil please.

If you make your points sensibly, people will likely listen more.

Personally I would have.

25/50

50/100

75/150

100/200

125/250

150/300

LATE REG CLOSES

Then same levels but it really, really needs to have a 500/1000 and a 2500/5000.

Think the clock, chips and late reg period are perfect.  

I like the payout struture too but understand why some would prefer it to be a bit flatter as it is a big tournie and even a min cash is a nice return if you've managed to sat in, so you could go to 15pc paid with a min cash of something like 150.

OK, so I ask again, what time did it finish this month please?

Between 1 - 1.30 am (I think!)

FCHD

Thanks, so not too bad with the Monday being a Bank Holiday I guess. However, subsequent months last Sundays are followed by what for most is a normal working day.

The biggest relative leap in the blinds appears to be from Level 2 to Level 3. The jump from Level 10 to 11 also seems pretty steep at that point in a tournament

Surely Sky's Premier event should last the longest? 

I think new levels do need to be added. 

Its hard to sell the super roller to a friend who will just say, "i can play the storm for 10% of the price, win 100x as much, and get far more poker out of it"

FCHD

The Don90, yes probably but a 3:30-4:00 am finish or whatever would be a factor that would deter some from playing it, surely?

with whats up top surely not - surely final tabling the roller pays for the sick day

GELDY

I don't think finishes after 2am are appropriate for anyone with a day job

scrumdown

so why not have on last saturday in the month instead of sunday

kidwiz10

I agree there scrum is rather it on a Saturday myself

scrumdown

better alround  kidwiz dont after miss out blinds if u working sunday dont enter

FCHD

Trouble with holding it on a Saturday is that there is no live 861 show on a Saturday

beaneh

guesswork ftw.

15 min no antes lolz

because people have social lives and go out on the drink on a saturday, i would be devasted if this became a saturday event, everyone knows sunday is poker day across all sites!!

I agree that due to the fact there are no antes, the tournament can just about get away with these blind changes.

Excellent contribution.

As i'm sure this advice took up a large chunk of your time, I feel it's only right to return the favour and thank you for this brilliance.

I just feel the super roller constantly gets branded as a 'great structure' with 'plenty of time' purely due to the fact you have a 10k starting stack. Like Bearly said the starting stack is irrelevant if the right blinds are not in place.

Agree with this 100% and think this thread was a good idea. Hope something is done for next month, like the addition of a 500/1000 level at the very least!
