    We've reduced the fields to 42 per event. The 12PM will still run with 45 as it was already registering.

    Didn't realize I had lost the connection to the poker server until it was too late. Missed the 12 o'clock.

    The 4AM and 8AM didn't fill. I expect the remaining tourneys to fill to capacity, so make sure to get in as soon as registration opens.

    Have to make sure I catch the 4.00am tomorrow.

    I prefer the 7 minute blinds personally... felt like the 12pm dragged a lot longer to get to final table today.

    So would the 12 AM be considered the last tournament of the day?

    Just confirming that I could play in the 12 AM and then play again on Tuesday if I wished.

    Thanks guys for the response so far.

    We debuted with the 4AM, as the order in the posted schedule dictates. The posted schedule is 4AM, 8AM, 12PM, 4PM, 8PM, 10PM and 12AM. *All times are EST.

    *The 12AM tournaments will officially start at 11:59PM - this is so the one-per day restriction is enforced, and so that there's a continuity to the start times, particular for our members on the West Coast.

    I think that i will drop my 10pm slot to play at 12pm in this case.


    Any reason to believe that the 12pm wont be full?

    PlayersOnly, I assume you mean 12am, and since it's the first day, there is reason to believe that.

    8 PM and 10 PM tend to be very popular times (along with noon/1 PM).

    Anything in the middle of the night (midnight, 4 AM) or early in the morning (8 AM), won't be as popular.

    Found a computer to play the night before the Sugar Bowl, and had a full house beat my lower full house and another one rivered to beat my 3 of a kind. Rough way to bubble 11th on the first day lol

    Why not adjust # of paid spots to # of entrants? Paying top 9 for 20 entrants is a joke and gives a huge advantage to those who play at those hours.

    It won't be that way after tonight. Most people thought the midnight one would count for tomorrow, so they played in an earlier one.

    There are a couple of reasons it wouldn't work. One is that the prizing is fixed; if we make it pay out a percentage then the system will assign prizes as it sees fit. We like to guarantee you guys what slots will receive what. The second is that all timezones are considered equal. This is an international event.

    Lou, any chance that you could offer a prize for the overall point earner after the qualifying period? Maybe a IPAD for that guy who does the best over the 2 month period? Or maybe 1000 points to the top 5 finishes over the 60 qualifying period?

    Hell how about a prize for the player who did the best for the first 3 days of the contest?? I wonder that would be............

    Hi PO,

    Thanks for the idea. We're already giving an iPad 2 away during this promo to the Team MVP of the championship series.
