    Add the points to the prize pool of course.

    Agree, Pavy is clueless. Tourney's were still 90 mins on average at 1,500.

    Keep in 2,500, makes it more skill based.

    Tourney seem to be lasting the same amount of time. I actually liked it

    My stats have the average time of 1500 stacks to finish at 70 minutes (not including the 5 min break) and 2500 stack at 105 minutes.

    35 minutes difference is 35 minutes more sleep time for me since I play the last tourney.

    Only because there was no promo. Once the 21st rolls around and you start seeing 40-45 players per tournament, these additional chips will really kick in. I'll be mostly playing the early time slot but I got a feeling it will be the most crowded of the three so I'm already bracing myself for some really late nights just to play against 30 nits instead of 40.

    We really should have a vote on the 1500 vs 2500 thing. How about it Drew?

    You'll get a chance to show your skill in the final one.

    They should make that one super deep stack but leave the qualifiers at 1500 chips. And please please please kick out the sit-out guys after 15 minutes. Is it too much to ask for Drew?

    i I didnt think about that. Think there was maybe 30 the 2 ive played with 2500.

    I sure as hell dont wanna make these things any longer than they already are thats for sure. At least with the lower payouts now

    Haven't played lately didn't realize it was 2500, definitely in the 1500 chip camp. We have 50 days of tournaments already. Definitely happy they did this instead of world cup

    I prefer the 2500 stack myself. Can usually take a hit early and still have a chance to survive (unlike the 1500 stack).

    As for time, it only adds 15 minutes or so to the tournament. Not a killer in my eyes.

    I want the 10am

    But most of the top players sign up for it anyway

    Should usually be avoided if trying to qualify and average to below avg like myself
