APAT WCOAP Main Event: Day2 Live Update

<< < (86/112) > >>

ian.ski309:
Anyone any idea what happened with that hand ?

Chipaccrual:
Blind on Blind action.

Steve Roderick raise to 110k from the small blind and Wayne Parker declares allin from the big blind.

Steve counts chips for a bit, then calls.


Steve 66

Wayne AQ

Board comes K43 9 9


So, Steve gets a huge double up to nearly 1.3m, and Wayne is left very short at 240k.

I love the events but I just don"t get why 9th pays the same as 4th.

Because it"s not about the money...the structure is designed to promote play at the tables and so is heavily weighted towards the later finishers.

Once the pressure is off about how much you"re gonna get (at the FT) then the play gets so much better when you"re playing for the win.

Simples.

I am afraid I have to disagree here.

One"s play at the FT is primarily dictated by the size of one"s chipstack and it"s relation to the blinds and antes.

Age old argument which APAT have so far refused to shift on.

a little of an over-statement here....there is very little stated demand for it to change four seasons into APAT....our feedback doors are always open....

Sorry didnt mean for it to sound quite so harsh.

Just don"t understand the reasoning for it. As far as I"m aware APAT is the only tournament series in the world which has this kind of payout structure.

Sounds like a good reason to keep it to me.

Really? I don"t think that"s a reason to keep it at all.

I like different  :)
