    Saturday 3pm Poker Tourny Question

    So far, there are 228 people signed up...yet there are 8 minute blinds and only the final table gets paid????

    I hope the final table has the afternoon/night free...

    It will take 3 hrs to reach final table. Either give out less chips or shorten blind intervals.

    Agree. I would just say to shorten the blind intervals to 5 minutes. With 225+ participants, it has to be expected that it's going to take 2.5 hours or so to complete.

    I'd like to see a few more places get paid too. When you play on freerolls at Bookmaker, they pay 25 spots (albeit, very very small payouts).

    Won't be that bad. At clubwpt and and spade club they get upwards of 1,500 players per big event with close to same blind structure and it doesn't take all day.
