    Suggestion thread for Sit-n-go's on Friday

    The first one is virtually agreed upon by EVERYONE.



    1. Change the blind structure from changing every 10 hands to every 7 or 8 hands. Virtually everyone agrees with this change (and SBR will make a higher rake per day, so everyone wins)


    2. Second rule is to NOT give fishhead pocket Aces THREE TIMES within 7 hands

    If anything, make more hands per level at the 200/400 level and up. There is literally no play once you get 3 handed.

    We had 5 players at 200-400. We have 4 players at 300-600




    Maybe they could do this. Make the blinds change every 8 hands, but increase the starting chip stack to 3000 chips. Then at 200-400, you would still have 5 or more players

    Blinds are way too slow, at least at the start. Makes it go forever.

    so you all want a "coin-flip all-in game" after the first 50 hands? where is the poker play in that?

    Well to be honest, not much true poker is played at any time in the SBR poker software

    could be true ... but where is the fun in 500/1000 blinds with 4 people at the table (7000, 3500, 3000, 1500) and the guy with 7000 is the first one to go because every hand 1 of the other 3 people is all-in and he is just unlucky and losses 2 times with better starting hands ...
    ... at this point it almost doesn't matter if you are chipleader of not because after 2 rounds of blinds you're just f***d anyway so practically you dont't have a choice but to call all-ins with good or bad cards ...

    ... this is not poker (in my opinion) ...

    That would be stupid, not much skill required, you might as well call
    it " Best Hand Wins" instead of POKER, to many fools with all in on
    just about every Hand

    Other than the occasional guy who was going all in because he had to get up and go and the game were only for points, I thought the level of play in the sitngos i was in were at least average.

    My one feedback is that maybe if somehow they could show on the main forum what sitn gos are available at the time or what tourneys are up, then more poster/members would migrate from the forums to poker.

    More then anybody you know that there are a lot of Poker Player
    that are not at the same level at which you are at, that does not mean
    that they don't try and realy enjoy Playing the Game and want to be a part
    of tourneys etc.
    you also know that if you are looking for TRUE POKER GAMES
    you most likely will have to play at a high Stakes Cash Table to
    get the Skill Level

    This is a very good idea. Last night was all about waiting for people.

    Once you get to 6-7 ppl left, I thought 10 hands/lvl went pretty well. The beginning of games did take awhile, I think the starting blinds should be higher instead of 15/10, start at 50/25. That would speed the early part of the game up a bit, but still be competitive in the latter stages. Most of the SNG's I played in yesterday lasted about 60-70 minutes.

    The main tourneys are all essentially turbos.
    The slower blinds in the SNGs makes a nice change of pace.

    worst part is I went out in fourth place and you got third for points while you were passed out!
