Hi guys,

This will be my first SPT so looking forward to hopefully playing well and going deep!

I was wondering what the structure is? Staring stack/blinds/clock etc...

Thanks!

    Hello ,just a quick query here,...Daiboot my freind u say the blind structure is 25-50 first level but I checked in the tournament lobby and its definately  10-20 first level blinds....

    If the tourney goes ahead with 25-50 blinds it makes the tourney with only 5000 chips seem like a bingo game instead of a proper match....plus the fact is 5000 chips isnt really all that many in consideration of other venue events and matches....The game will be played at a much faster pace if they start the blind levels off at 25-50 thats all im saying....

    Please have someone from sky reitarate the correct blind structure ..regards Aaron,.

    hi Aaron
    it is very rear for a live poker tournament to start with a blind structure that is below 25 as not many poker rooms have 10 chips, as you say it can be a bit of a bingo game but they want i all finished in one day.
    have a look at the player briefing from Newcastle

    the structure above is correct

    5000 chips, starting at 25-50 for 150+ runners. the structure given in the online lobby is notional only, reflecting a standard online tournament not the live event

    The event is a one day event and typically concludes at 1am the next morning. Hence there is only so much you can do with the structure to enable the event to conclude within one day's play
