    8 minute levels are just too long to be honest

    For a Championship? No.

    I voted. I prefer a 6max, 8 mins, 5k chips for a championship.

    It's just better poker.

    small tables, short start stack and quick timer.

    Would not have been the finale structure I expected to be voted in. But the people have spoken.

    Don't think those 3 options will be passed before end of week.

    Obviously most players here prefer to get to Push/Fold poker as quickly as possible

    I'm a bad poker player but I love to play!! I was at a table with carseller a few weeks back, he goes all in 6 times pre flop in a 8 hand stretch, the 4 times he was called he hit a flush !! and my buddy jake thinks I'm the lucky one !! A couple of days after that I'm at the opening table with Autodonk, carseller, and my buddy bosco who was talking about push/shove or all ins in post above, Don't remember who else was at the table but the 4 of us was together for at least 20 hands and there may have been 5 hands that one of those 3 didn't go all in pre flop!!! Its your cards your play, so play any way you like, that's your business I'm just stating facts!! There is 5 more cards coming after that so its a crap shoot but its a free tournament so i guess what the hell!!!

    Jackpot, it looks like people are voting for the crap shoot. Seems like after 9 weeks of play they would want to give themselves a chance to win not for some one to get lucky in a turbo all in fest.

    How about everyone goes all in on every hand until a winner wins all chips?

    I'm surprised people want smallest stack and shortest timer. I guess that is why we have a vote.


    I'm not sure they all realize just how short 6 minutes is though.

    If it was the WSOP, then I'd prefer a deep stack format.

    For online tournies these days, I like to get down to brass tacks.

    Just my .02

    I voted for the shorter stacks and shorter time levels. I'm with Jake. If this was a WSOP, I could understand wanting a more traditional championship format, but I guarantee you 3/4 of us are going to be just as focused on a college football game/bet at the same time we are playing this match. I'm not trying to devalue the tourney. I'm just being honest about the circumstances.
