obviously...

lol all seem to have 40-45 to me.

there used to be a little bit of a divide

they've evened out

everyone knows this, so it tends to even things out if people notice a certain tournament is getting less players.

This week every tournament has had at least 41, I believe.

True, thanks guys. Always looking for that ever illusive edge.

I'm thinking the early bird game or the late nighter might be best...?

If you need confirmation that it's better value to play in a tournament with fewer players when payouts are always the same I highly doubt your mathematics skills.

And even then you are only accounting for one factor.
Volume of players, while ignoring quality of player.
I'd put my implied odds in a 41 man tourney full of 1st time players better, than in a 12 man game full of sharks.

I'd rather play the 12 man game, thanks. It's online poker.

I didn't know if payouts were the same for every tourny or if they floated with the number of people. I was asking to confirm.

Thanks captain obvious. I don't know who is sharp though and who isn't? Does SBR provide player stats?

Apparently there's a leaderboard, I havent found it yet either.
