Des:
If this proposal was carried then some part of the structure would have to give to allow for 50% more chips in play.
Is it currently broke comes to mind?
AMRN:
The WCOAP Main Event ran with a 15k stack in 2011, but stuck to the normal APAT structure (I don"t remember any levels being removed, but I left around level 10) - it afforded far much more play early on, but didn"t lengthen the playing time significantly (if I recall correctly).

I always support this adage..... BUT I thought that thread was partly about Continuous Improvement opportunity? It may not be broke, but that doesn"t mean it can"t be improved....

Don't know if it's too late in the day for suggestions
How about a TURBO WORLD AMATURE CHAMPIONSHIP. I know the all point of APAT is to have a good strutched tournament at an affordable price, so this would go against this but they are more and more tournaments appearing at the £100 mark so to be different have a turbo series that is the opposite. I'm not saying have £75/£100 buy-ins but around the £30/£40 with the ME still being at £75. It would go something like this
Friday: 6max (7.30)
Saturday ME (2.30, 1 day) + Stud or Razz or Shoot Out (8.00)
Sunday Omaha (2.30) + 3 handed (5.00)
The starting chips and clock and capacity would have to be worked out to fit into a certain time frame. Plus it would depend on APAT staff, venue and dealers but that is the same for all tournaments.

But will this actually improve your experience or would it require us to play 14 levels on day 1 instead of 12, while potentially adding a couple of hours to our Sunday night finishing time? Would it result in the tournament becoming more of a chore for our less experienced players or those who also want the weekend to be a social experience?
