    only played 1 or 2

    pissed because this is my favorite format

    drank too much and was too busy

    but atleast this is ending so people like me can jump back in next series instead of waiting 2 months for it

    Since you asked, will reiterate an idea I suggested earlier:

    Instead of three tourneys per day, twelve tourneys per day - one starting at every hour from say 11 AM EST to 10 PM EST (or something of that sort - similar to the World Cup of past years!). Each person can only play one tourney per day still, and each tournament is maximum 10 players (a sit n go essentially, and 120 people total would be able to play each day which I think would be enough). Each tournament pays out 200 points total (so still 2400 total points paid out for the day, just as it is currently), Top 3 in each (just like a normal sit-n-go does) with payout 100-60-40.

    And can go back to 1500 chips then since many seem to want that (not that I think it's required but is an option). But the main key is, since only 10 people are in each tournament compared to 30-40, whether you start with 1000 or 1500 chips, the tourneys will be much shorter than the 30-40 person ones. And I think that's main thing most people want - the issue is the way it's being done currently, the tournaments are being made shorter at the expense of being much more luck based/high variance in the short term - that's why I like an idea like this.

    Again, in essence I would try to attack the issue that people have of tourneys being too long, not by shortening stack sizes/making it 6 max, but by cutting the # of players in each tourney as such. Plus the wide variety of starting times will likely make it easier on those who have very tight schedules since will be easier to squeeze tourneys in if you have odd hours.
    I like this idea.

    Gives everyone a final table/full table experience feel and practice and also short hand and heads up if you make it.

    it's right there on the shelf with the video of Trump colluding with the Russians to win the 2016 presidential election.....

    pretty rich, coming from the guy who once begged me for a rebate of all his chips I won from him at the tables, claiming I took advantage of him being wasted while playing, totally mistreating him by cremating his drunk ass......

    compare the payout structure to what is posted in the daily RESULTS thread... they do not coincide!

    I love this format. I spent 1/3 of the time each night I spent on last promo. I hope they continue it.

    Me 2, it's like having to play the Final Table from the rip, only the strong survive, no where for weak players to hide.

    This contest was only the first leg I believe. Still got two more of these races left to determine the Triple Crown right?

    Really felt like the impossible dream of getting first place tonight (my only way to qualify for the Final) might be happening, was chip leader with 8 players left! Then SBR decided to mock me, dealing me KK in the small blind, I get it allin vs second biggest overall stack in the big blind, and he turns over .... AA. I mean cmon sick coolers happen, but when I'm that close in the very last qualifier, that's just mean!

    But anyway, while it seems several others may not agree, I did enjoy this format even if I didn't do particularly well in it. I will suggest an idea though like the one I did a few times earlier in this post where we have more tourneys but fewer players in each tourney - a way to shorten the tourneys without necessarily making them so high variance in the short term. Look forward to it, whatever it is.

    Whether you liked this format or not, the fact that SBR is trying new things and such is encouraging imo - a good way to try to keep things reasonably fresh!

    I also like the format, qualified easy even with missing 5 tourneys and losing 4 in the first hand lol.

    Best poker promotion ever. I spent an average of 27.5 minutes per day playing compared with the old format of 82.6 minutes per day and I had similar results. This is 60 minutes of my life per day I was able to do something else more fun.

    10 6 is the SBR nuts!

    Wasn't all smooth sailing if anyone was watching. I thought for sure the switch was flipped and Stefan was going to take it down but I was able to hold him off
