    This should make the final table more interesting. By our calculations the blinds will stop increasing around the final 5.

    might be right or wrong, who knows. but glad sbr is taking steps to improve final table play

    by my calcs, i think that still will only leave about 10 bb/player which isnt much. we will see how it works though.

    I will try and play in this one. Saturday is a real bad day for me to play normally, but I might be able to get home in level 5 or so.


    LOU, the changes are nice, but one more change would fix everything i think. Just have everyone start out with 5000 chips instead of 2500. That would only add around 15-20 minutes to the tournament

    Why are poker points being paid for 10-20 when the 250 from 60 people covers the buy in pool. If SBR points are paid in full then shouldnt SBR points be paid out in full, since there is not overlay?

    I guess I didnt read previous threads about the tourney.

    But just would seem that if they are taking 250 per person and raking 25 then what is the need for poker points, there is already a rake of 25 points?

    I won't be able to make this one.

    Guess I'm saving myself 275 points and a bad beat story.

    Lou - I know it says top 20 get paid, but looking at the "Info" on the actually tournament it's saying top 9.

    Edit by SBR Lou: It's because top 9 get SBR Points. 10-20 get SBR Poker points (applied manually). We'll be making an upgrade soon so the prize can include multiple payment types automatically.

    Got it, thanks. And therefore SBR points automatically come back into our regular account without the need for a rollover?

    ^^^ Yes, but like Seaweed you may not want to win regular points as a non-pro. You can only use rollover points at the poker tables until you become pro.
