    how come the 162 has a much better structure than all the other mtt's? i think they should switch em all to the same structure of the 162

    with the HUGE field sizes stars gets, do you really wanna be playing an $11 FO for any longer than you have to?

    stars structure = Great at late levels
    Full Tilt structure= terrible at late levels

    stars structure is perfectly fine... i mean a 250/500 level would be pretty cool, but other than that stars structure is perfectly balanced between mtts not taking 18hrs and not beeing a pure shovefest

    Now that I no longer suck and can reach the late stages I have to say I agree with the others that PStars structure is nice and Full Tilt's is horrid. I currently don't play anything over a $10 buy-in so I will not play anything on Tilt due to it's shitbox structure. I'll just suck it up and deal with large field mtt's until I bink one and can leave them behind for good.

    1. the $11 superstacks have a preposterous structure. the blind levels start at 12 min and eventually get to 20 min with 140/280 and 170/340 levels thrown in. hard to say they do that badly in low limit tourneys structure-wise with those around.
    2. you know you're just burning money, right? if you're not playing those tourneys because of a bad structure (iyo) late in the tourney, you're literally throwing away money.

    Reason: emphasis on throwing away money

    DP- while the superstacks are great structures if yo are looking for play, I agree with mr Fkcoolers that the lower limit structures leave for a crappy endgame on FTP.

    that said - he obviously needs to work on his push fold game a little bit ya think?

    Rly don't understand the outcry by some people to change FTP's late tourney structure.

    stars structures are fine, too. I do quite enjoy the structure of the afternoon $162 more than other tourneys, tho. I wouldn't mind more tourneys with that kind of structure.

    Would it not be better if stars had say twice as many tournements at all levels, therefore reducing the sizes of the fields?
    Obviously, this would reduce the size of the payouts, but would favour the skillfull players more.

    What do you think, is this a good or bad idea? I dont know maybe you better players like it as it is?

    The sites would prefare that everyone played in turbos, the quicker the turnover the better they like it!
    If no one complains, they will keep nibling away at the strutures.
    Every change they make, like smaller starting stacks, reduced blind times, bigger increases in blinds, antes, rush poker etc is to get the games over faster.

    This. Stars structures, FTP payouts would be perfect.

    IMO the payout change on stars is more important tho.

    stars structures are great deep, but i think its pretty retarded that the blinds double in one level going from 25/50 to 50/100.
