Didnt play last night but how many runners were there?
Was it more than 547 or less?
....and it if it was a lot less, how delighted are the sponsors??
Also, if there really were as many happy as there were unhappy with the opening structure, why was it changed at all then???

ummmm did nobody notice that in week 1 with the 5k/15 structure there were 547 runners..... and in week 2 that had reduced to around 420(can"t remember actual number). That"s a huge drop off after one week, and perhaps an indication of what many people thought about the 3.30am finish? Can"t blame the new structure for that drop off as the new structure hadn"t been played yet.

Des,
What the hope for Week 1?
Would be good to get some feedback from Stars too, on what they think about the numbers

I believed we would get a record turnout Waz, but not 547 runners.
Perhaps not for PokerStars, but for every other major online operator in the UK, that would be an extremely good result. For a non operator to be able to produce those numbers, is exceptional.

If its an extremely good result, why on earth would you want to change it

The number dropped off significantly (20%+) after the first week, before the 4k structure had been played..... that"s over 100 people that didn"t come back after week one. Perhaps a sign of people not liking the 3.30am finish?

Thanks Leigh. So more dropped after wk2 than after wk1. Might that have happened anyway, regardless of structure, or might it be an indication of feeling?
I"m sure there"s a structure out there that will suit most desires - Dave Howard made some good observations in the Match 3 thread last night, looking at the Stars 500 cap structure with 3k/10, but a shallower climb.
