JP, you may feel free to disregard my opinion as my attendance at your Sunday game has been quite sparse of late. However, is there not an argument for adding to the structure slightly given the increase in the buy - in?

I am thinking the insertion of a 150 - 300 level and / or sticking to a 40 min clock all the way through.

Hi Lloyd,

I'm all for the best possible structure, however i'm also all for having as many players as possible.

It has been said to me in recent weeks by some of my pub players that they would prefer a shorter blind structure because the game goes on too long and so they won't be playing my Sunday game anymore. It has been suggested to me to run the Sunday game with a 20 min clock:eek:

This suggestion came from some of the better players who play 3/4 times a week and also cashed well when i ran this as monthly game when i was getting 80+ players.

Their main reason for the shorter blind levels was that 80+ players you could easily expect to be there until 3-4am if no deal was done, and this was too late for them with work in the morning.

As you can see from my reports there have been alot fewer of my pub players at these games and alot more casino based players. With the current structure there is usually plenty of play throughout the game.

I personally wouldn't mind staying in the Red Cow until 3/4/5 or even 6am as I'm not up early the next morning, however this has put some players off.

Currently the game has been ending between 1.30am-3am (that is with 45-65 players), i expect this game will get a regular 80+ casino based players over the next few months. When this happens the current structure may put some players off as it will run too late. Some of the players that have been playing the Sunday game in recent weeks have already been asking me what i'm going to do when the numbers increase so that the game will still end around the 2am mark.

Having said all that i am open to change if that is what the players want (i think it may be to late for this Sunday mind you).

I don't know how to do a poll on boards so maybe you could do a poll asking players opinions.

Thanks
Jp

20 min levels. My oh my. I better get down there and show some support.


Maybe the €250 should go the following Sunday, when there is the bank holiday monday the following day? You would then have the option of extending things.

The debate about finishing times has been aired many times before. My personal opinion is that if you choose to play cards you should expect to be there late and have to get on with it on a couple of hours sleep the following morning.

Obviously, there is a different type of recreational player to myself outthere. And I'm sure a 5am finish for some of the lads firing pints into themselves from the off on a Sunday would really decrease their employabillity on a Monday morning!!

Sparky1808

I'm probably going to make the trip down south this Sunday for the €250 game myself JP. I'm rounding up the numbers at my side at the moment, probably get a squad of 6 of us going down for the game. So €1,500 worth of dead money Should hopefully be great craic and by the looks of things a very good structure.

Not that I intend to be knocked out early JP, but what side action goes on throughout the tournament, is there cash games or sit 'n' gos?

All the best

Hi Sparky,

That would be great if you could bring a few down with you. Currently we have no cash games, this is something i have wanted to do for a long time. However the Hotel won't allow it with the current legisation, however this is currently under review and i hope to have cash games soon (September hopefully).

There will be SnG's

Thanks

Ok everyone,

Looking for your views on Lloyds idea of adding a 150-300 level. Maybe if those of you who have gone deep in this in recent weeks could also give your reason for the above change.

All in favour say yes

All not in favour say no.

Thanks

^^^LoL Donkaments!!!^^^

JP, I've been on the FT the last two weeks. The structure is good. The first week there were only 35? runners and towards the end it was a bit tight (a raise was 1/5 of the average stack), but thats understandable. Last week with extra numbers there was lots of play possible.
I have felt the antes a bit steep on some levels but on reflection that just means you have to add more to your game.
By all means, add in the 75/150-150/300 levels, I'd never turn down more play, but as is the structure is fine.

I think theres a pointless amount of play early on, how about 25/30 minute levels till the second last table then go to 40 minutes.

RasTa

This is the best tourney I ever played in, but i'd rather 30min levels for the first 6 with a 150/300 level. Then 40mins for the FT.

I started a thread about qualifiers for this last night and got no replies, I found it a bit strange that people weren't up for qualifying for an Irish Ranking Event and a game that most people think is the best game in Dublin for only $35 dolla's.......maybe it was too short notice / lack of advertising, but I'm gonna start a new one on saturday morning so anyone who logs on during the day will see it, so if you free saturday night give it a bash....I will of course be dead money at it.

i think online qualifiers are a great idea....although 8pm sat night might not be the best time... a lot of people will be heading out at this time

MisterMonkey

i have only played the 250 not the usual 150 one but the structure seemed fine, the whole way down to the end there was lots of room for play. i think this appeared to be the general consensus on the night aswell

I would rarely, if ever, play a sat for an event I am willing to directly buy into.

Sparky1808

I'm all for an insertion of blind levels, as the more play the merrier - but if it can't be done - it can't be done. The structure seems to be very reasonable as it is. Although if you were to insert 75/150 & 150/300 - you'd be better off making it 30min blinds throughout to keep it going on to a sensible time and to satisfy all the punters.

Anyway upto yourself JP - fantastic structure regardless.

sure it's good craic with the other players for starters and you save money on the ole bankroll too,

do u not play sats to the sunday million on stars ???..........would you be willing to pay $215 dollar's into that without trying a sat first ??? especially when the double shootouts are so easy

Hi JP,

Just want to comment on the following:

1. What type of player do you want? Bringing up about pub players for a 250 game is a bit misleading as these guys dont pay to play a 250 game structure, they either qualify or player it every few months. Your buy-in is not massive, but a large percentage of most people's disposal income each month, so I would recommend you aim this game at the level of player who can afford it monthly, this is usually the players with bankroll management skills and winning players etc. Also the excuse about it going on to late is rubbish, if the game starts at 2pm, you should be at the final table by 12 and finish by 3pm. Point 2 will cover the reason why this game goes on to long.

2. Starting stack. To be fair a 20k starting stack is a joke and this as been increase from the 10k stack. Again this is a gimic and aim at the pub player who likes loads of chips so he can play more hands and get lucky against better players. As the blinds increase there is actually less play with this structure compare to your old structure, this point was proved at the WSOP this year.

3. New Starting stack. You should bring the starting stack back to 6 to 7k and make people play poker correctly from the start of the game with all the levels involved and a 30 min clock for first 6 levels and maybe 40 mins after that. I'm sure this would get to the final table by 12.

4. Sunday. Another problem is the day you play this game, Sunday is a massive day online, but there's very little you can do about this.

Finally, these our just my views, I dont like this game structure, but think the value in it is very good and its very well run and your a excellant TD. But I'm not sure who or what type of player you want at this game. My views are in relation to a certain type of player, which is the same player that GJP aim at, but I feel there location and tournament venue was the problem, not the game. There numbers 1/2 within 6 months of starting, but is still one of the best games around, pity its not in Dublin.

I would rather a smaller starting stack which would represent a 250 game and a proper structure with reasonable blind levels to suit a certain amount of game play. I feel a 7k starting stack with all levels 30 min clock, 40min after level 8 and 45 mins for final table is a fair and good value structure. But this would give the advantage back to the tourney player and not the pub player.

Your planning to hold a big event next year, pub players wont fill this for you, so please make a decision who you want at your games and cater for that market, trying to cater for everyone will lead to complaints from all sides and a downturn in your business.

Anyway gl with it and I hope to be down soon for a game.

Ollie,
i have played in a few of these JP games.
i had my doubts about how playable this structure would be once we get a bit further in to the game but i have to say they remain very playable.
i have been the short stack with 50K with 13 players left with blinds at 500/1000 and i have been short stack with 70K with blinds at 1/2K with 18 left.
as you can see there is 35BB left to play with and this is being short.
also the fact that people have lots of chips at the start works to good players advantage .
you will be shocked about the plays that players make just cuz they have lots of chips and its very easy to use that to your advantage.

Hi Gholi,

I agree about there's still loads of plays, but not as much play as with the old standard 10k structure with all the levels. Also, more chips leads to players thinking they can see more flops with marginal hands, in general this is a good thing, but I've been dogged a lot recently, so maybe thats just a personal point...lol.

My point in general is the market this game is aim at and I believe this is not the pub player, also a 10k or 20k starting stack is madness if you want this game to end at a decent time, which was the point of JP's discussion. Reduce the starting stack, (a 10k stack should only be used in €500+ games with 45min+ clock) maye it 7.5k or 15k and use all the levels.

I might be over on Sunday and this is not meant as a critisim of JP's games which are all excellant.

Hi Ollie,

Firstly thanks for your input.

Regarding the pub player debate, i agree with you 90% of my weekly players won't be playing in my festival next year unless they win a ticket as it is just to0 expensive for them. That said, the better pub players that play with me on a regular basis do play my Sunday game. Some very experienced players play my pub games that have dealers, eg Don, Sean & Sean Paul Fagan, Dave Masters, Thomas Nolan, Gerry Sinnott ect.

I think the issue with time is because it's a school night, i agree Saturday would be a better day for this game, but its impossible to run a weekly game like this on Saturdays. Some very experienced players (casino based) have said that while the structure is great, they think i may have problems with in the near future when the numbers increase to 80+. It has been suggested to me by some players that i will need to reduce the 1st 6 levels to 30 mins when this happens.

This game was orginally meant to have run only for the month of June to give the lads going to Vegas a trial run at the structure before they played the main event, which some of them did and thought it was of great benefit to them at the WSOP.

At the end of June i annouced that i would be returning to my normal structure, which by the way i thought was perfect structure in the 1st place (also it was this structure that complaints were made about for being too long by the player that won this in March, when it was a monthly event). When i said i would be changing back to the old structure everyone asked me to keep the new structure as they thought it was a much better structure compared to my old one.

Again thanks for you comments i like to hear the different opinions on the game.

ditpoker

i think ollie makes some very good points about picking your market. I played your 150 game twice and there was alot of value in it when you had the 10k sturcture, it was the top end of your pub-casino player budget and the low end of your serious players budgets (your ollie's and gholi's of this world). it was the right price with the right structure and got some great value. the 250 game (while i am 100% sure it will be a great game) i'm convinced will only attract a player of a far higher standard than your 150 game and from my point of view anyway there is easier ways to donate 250 euro to some fo dublins better card players. hmmm i've forgotten what my point was... i think it was bring back the old structure where you had a gazzilion levels before the ante's were introduced (not just 2 or 3 levels) and you had 10k starting stack.. and charge €150, and put up another gazzilion signs saying "if you win this and don't tip your dealers at least 1% you're a big meanie!!" or something to that effect!

i need to make €100 in the next 24 hours if im to play this, heads up for houses anyone, i have a nice lego house somewhere here, must be worth near €100 for nostalgia!? anyone?! lloyd!??!

The Al Lad

how can people be complaining about this structure

IMO this game is the best game in Dublin, the best structure with loads of play, and a better structure than the SE end of month IMO which is €220 (roughly the same entry fee) and attracts the same type of player, which is alot of the poster's here from boards.

I dont see how bringing the stack down to 6-7k is gonna make people play properly, if they're gonna play like idiots thats just the way it is, like I'm sure people go in and play the SE end of month and donk all their chips away in 2 levels,

and this game also brings a bit of variety to the games offered around Dublin, it would get boring playing the same type of games and structure's all the time

Just consider it a €100 FO with a cracking structure and a huge overlay you huge life nit. Jesus.

Jesus Wept

I thought the structure was great the time I won it (not because I won it ) and it would be my preference that the structure/starting stack returned to that.

just my

bottom feeder

JP i played just one of your new structured games and taught it was very enjoyable - but Ollie does have a point about what players you want to attract!
Wont be able to make it this Sunday as im working all day, but this was receiving good reviews when i played in the SE and the Fitz this week...
JP keep up the good work and hope to see you soon...

How many runners did this get??

Anyone know who took it down???

nicnicnic

52 I think. Shortstack was still in with five left when I left at about 12.50. structure ran very well don't think average was below 40 BBs until final table. Antes may need a little tweaking don't feel they should ever be above 12.5% of BB

Good,
The structure sounds decent despite the small crtiscism it got,

Nic ,mahan looked unstoppable after round 1, i guess jet lag set in. and where were we all with Romero, that guy is playin some serious golf, should of had him e/w at least

Shortstack

55 runners.

I went in 4th. Cuban Son was 5th. John Cooney, Emmett and Andy were the final 3.

Cuban Son

Got some nice hands early on the final table and managed to go from 99k to about 170k with relative ease and then...... Nicola came to deal:eek:!!! I went totally card dead. Made 1 or 2 raises with marginal hands that had to be folded to Mikes reraises. Dropped down to 55k and pushed on the BB with K9o with 3 limpers.
With the blinds at 4k/8k and 1k ante, there is 37k in the pot . I'm expecting at least one caller which would nearly triple me up. Emmett called with Ac7c. Flop came JJQ giving me more outs. Any 9-10-K, but no help came.
Only hand a regret was when 5 handed I mucked Ac6c utg. Would have flopped the nuts with action between Mike and John 'sir bluffs a lot' Cooney.
But hindsight is always 20/20.
Well done JP for another good event. Still want a prize for 3 FT in a row;):D .

Well done to Andy'Navan Man'Clarke. I was sat beside him on the FT and second last table. Well deserved winner. I knew when it went to 3 way action, he'd come good. He was patient and was lucky to pick up QQ when shortstacked and survive a race against Mike's AK. I think that was a key hand for him. Well done.
