THE OPEN SATELLITES

TENOFSPADE

hi all .since the open has been moved to a 8pm start ,and im a regular satellliter into these events ,im finding it difficult to have free time inbetween playing the satellitie and then playing the open....eg..finished work at 4 ,got home at 5 ,entered 515 satellite to the open ,won a seat ,game ended 7.15 ..........ive now got 45 mins before the open starts.......dont get me wrong im well chuffed ive won a seat ,but by the time i have a shower now and change,theres not much time left to make a meal (and eat it without playing poker the same time)......was wondering how others felt about speeding up the blind structures of the satellites(not like last nights tko, but more along the lines of the velocity structure}i also feel ive been playing poker for 2 hours i could do with a break for a couple of hours before playing again .........im over the moon ive gotta seat 2night ,but doing this everyday is starting to take up far 2 much of my time ,..........dont wanna sound ungratefull but in my eyes a quicker blind structure is needed.........thoughts please

i voted no because i like the way the sats play at the moment. I would however like them to run evening sats for tournys on the next night, so a sat at say 9pm to tomorrow nights 8pm start

That's the beauty of internet poker. You can play just wearing dirty Y-fronts and eating a pot noodle.

Hi Ten

I voted no for the simple reason that I agree with what someone else requested here a while back (apologies to who posted it as I can't remember!).

I would actually like to see satellite's for the 8pm tourneys start the night before. I don't think faster structures are the best way forward otherwise it just becomes a complete c rap shoot to qualify, but I do fully understand your frustrations.

thats a very good idea acesover ,i would deffo play those sats for the open next day ,or even if they put up some sit n gos ,with the winner getting a seat ,half hour job done............any more ideas???????

Sorry, I had to vote no but I do get your point. I don't finish work till 5 so I'm lucky to make the 5:15 sat.
Good idea to start the sats the night before and to do SnGs but speeding up the structure of the sat isn't the way to go imo!

Im also put off my playing sat that are turbo on other sites as said before it becomes a crapshoot when the blinds go up.
