Title: Season 2 online structure
Post by: technolog on September 26, 2007, 11:35:29 AM
I"ve just seen the tourney structure for the new season (http://www.apat.com/structure_Online.php (http://www.apat.com/structure_Online.php)) and everything looks fine with one exception.

At the introduction of the antes, the cost of one orbit increases from 300 to 700. Before the antes, blinds are 100/200 then the next level is 150/300 + 25.

I think we should definitely have a 100/200 + 25 level - that"s a big enough jump as it is, the cost of a round (was going to put a Des/bar/drinks related gag in here but thought better of it) rising from 300 to 550.

It may just be a mistake but can we have it changed please Des or we"ll all be hurtling over the all-in cliff like APAT-branded lemmings!

Very good point sir.  Having that 100/200 +25 missing is like having the 150/300 level missing in the live events.

Yes, it transpires the Blue Square software cannot handle antes.  A development request has been briefed to Playtech.

I have to say in Luton I was looking at the 150/300 and I noticed a huge jump.

If you are at 100/200 and say are on 5000 chips, you have an M of 16. Then you goto the next level of 200/400 all of a sudden you have an M of 8.

That is a big jump..... It is going from deep stacked to a hard to play stack, push or fold territory.

So I am with you on the 150/300 campaign.

Kin,

It would seem that submitting a "devolpment request" to APAT would be the way forward??

:D
