    Better tournies than Bovada?
    Living in KY, it is a little difficult trying to find places to play. Bovada isn't bad, but I cannot STAND all the late registration they let happen for tournaments (up to 2 hours). Anybody have any suggestions on other safe places?

    Use it to your advantage and late register where you can have a decent chip stack, there's overlay to be had in most rebuy tournaments

      what do you mean? It seems like late registering puts you in shove or fold mode too much for my liking

          Rebuys perfect examples. Late reg & add on at the break. You won't be in shove fold situations often and there will usually be several buys and Rebuys from players who've been knocked out that are dead money

                      Over at Americas cardroom most tournies have 15min blinds which makes for a lot of deep stack play. Cashouts are lighting fast also with the DC

                        What's so bad about turbos? Obviously, there's a higher variance than in standard MTTs, but you just need to pick good spots to shove.

                          the worst room in my book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
                          I do not mind the late registration , compare with a re buy re entry tournaments
                          because they need a lots of re entries to make the guaranty money

                                  the better tournaments are usually a little over 3 hours
