DTD's new policy on deals

<< < (2/5) > >>

Paulie_D:
NB...there is a qualifier though.

"tournaments where the prize pool is guaranteed by Dusk Till Dawn will subject to a "no deals policy"."

dwh103:
IMO, deals are only ever likely if the payout or tournament structures are too steep in the first place.

If you"re crapshooting for massive pay jumps then I"m going to want to deal from a pure EV/variance point of view - even though I hate dealing and would rather play it out.

I hate dealing too, I can never quite get the hang of that shuffling thing.   ;D

SirPercival:
I think a better option is to have a "must leave £xx for winner" policy.

The host still gets the final table played to the end and the players have the option of reducing the variance.

WYoung83:
 I Argee. Money left over to play for is the best of both worlds, suits the players who want to deal because of the massive pay jumps, and is good for the club as the tourny is played to an eventual winner.

As far as i know all of the GPs have had some kind of multiway chop, and most of the Super 50s and some of the deepstacks do. Dont think any of the MCs have though, but i could be wrong.
