    Empty Tables

    Once again our poker community is facing the illusion of empty tables.
    Sunday night tourney, only 11 players ! During the week the tables have thinned as well.
    Could it be vacation time ?? Could it be the all in shove fest that keeps the normal game of poker stagnant ? What can we do to bring back the good old days !???
    HMMMMMMM ? I WONDER !

    I would rather see 30+3 (30 pt unlimited re-buy)
    think it would get more runners

    agree

    not only would it get more runners. each runner would likely rebuy on average a couple more times, so the prizepool would probably be larger with the smaller buyin/rebuys

    1. It better have been with the wife, otherwise, you're gonna have some explaining to do. 2. Isn't that what got ya to be a father in the 1st place?... so, why now? To paraphrase Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon: "You're too old for this shit!". p.s. - the chicken never, EVER, needs that kind of "glaze".

    It was for Paul Bernardo, so probably. Canadians are weird birds... just look at aggieshawn and miller. I suspect it's from all the hockey concussions they sustain while growing up.

    Speaking of empty tables....What happened to the SNG's? Every now and again they would fill over from a cash game? Are they no more?
