....for some,4.30pm was perfect,hence the reason i chose Friday as my start day.

So SHOUT

Chipaccrual:
I"m not suggesting that this change won"t be a pain to some people, but it is useful to put it into some context.

If you were to still turn up at 4:30, then you would miss the first two levels.  You will have roughly lost about 600 chips through the blinds putting you on 9400, and average chipstack will be about 10,400.

Obviously, you will have missed out on a couple of levels of information and play at the table, but you would not be at any significant disadvantage chipwise.

If you were planning on turning up two levels in anyway (at 6pm), then I guess this does kind of ruin your plans.

Again, just my opinions, and players are completely entitled to shout if it"s a problem.

Your shout ?

Cheers, I will have a Redbull, Harmony would like Half a lager and quite sure one or two members of the forum would appreciate a drink too.

not withstanding, missing the first two levels also denies the opportunity to play cheap pots to grab early chips.. (oh, sorry forgot - this is Ant we"re talking about... no early play anyway unless it"s AA or KK  :D )

Ant1966:
I hear what your saying Leigh,but my own personal reasons have nothing to do with
missing a level or two of poker,more work and family orientated.Des said shout, so i have.
Sounds like it has already been decided.....so my shout will go un-heard.

Bainn,a redbull and half a lager no trouble at all,my friend.
