Blind Structure, specifically antes...
kinboshi:
Not only that, the antes stay at 25 for the next level as well. So that means it"s even slower.
The APAT structure is slower than the DTD structure for a number of reasons:

Compare Level 15 at DTD to APAT's.
Also the antes in the DTD structure go:
25 --> 50 --> 100 --> 100 --> 200 --> 200 --> 300 --> 400 --> 600 --> 800
The APAT antes increase far more gradually:
25 --> 25 --> 50 --> 75 --> 100 --> 100 --> 100 --> 200 --> 300 --> 300

Cmon guys this is hardly worth arguing over. 45 minute levels give plenty of time for play.
150/300 to 25/200/400 is absolutely fine and a necessity if we want to whittle the numbers down to a reasonable number for day 2.
This is what the sixth level after we have been playing 4 and a half hours
Dont change anything Des this is fine!!!

It"s not an argument, it"s a constructive discussion. I think the structure is pooey.
Only joking, I"m not bothered really, I"m unlikely to still be involved by the time the antes kick in.

These things grow over time, and the structure for this weekend is sooooo much better than last year. Over time it will evolve, but will never be perfect - there will always be somebody who"s not happy with it.
APAT is a massive success (look at the issues trying to get seats) and Des and team could rest on their laurels, however they"ve listened to all the feedback from last year and have introduced so many positive changes for S3, including a pretty decent structure for the Nationals.
Let"s give it chance and see how it goes - suffice to say though, it"s the best live poker you will get anywhere for £75!! The whole APAT package is spot on, and I"m sure that S4 will see further evolution and improvements based on feedback and experiences in S3.

Looks like I may have gotten away with the thickly veiled "I might have been wrong" post. :o
