The Wednesday 150k satellites run at terribile times for those of us with dayjobs. I love the 100+9 satellite structure and payout, but where I live they start at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I understand this on the day of the tournament, but all the other days it doesn't make sense to me. Can it not be moved back three or four hours? On the west coast the 100+9 satellite starts at 1 p.m. People with dayjobs have no chance to get a cheap seat without taking off work early. Whaddyathink???

 sorry he's too busy lamenting the poor quality of his kobe beef.


(2:51:30 AM) Roothball: craftsteak was actually below avg tonight
(2:51:50 AM) Roothball: maybe cause i didnt get the platinum wagyu and only the reg wagyu

let us hope and pray he can recover from the sub-par cut of meat served to him at craftsteak.

I know that there are only so many hours to run sats before an event and there is a cutoff to ensure the sats complete in time. I am afraid that west coasters just get screwed because there isnt enough time to complete a sat to accomodate them if they start any later

No guarantees, but I can look into adding satellites at different times. There is no reason why there shouldn't be another satellite at a later time when the tournament is on Sundays anyways.

Thanks Roothlus. The 150K guarantee is actually on Wednesdays though.... check out the satellites, they suck for anyone in central time zone or west of central. Appreciate the response.

While you're at it, tell them to make the 200k a 5k starting stack.  It's already a great tourney, but with 5k starting chips, they could really boast having far and away the best structure of any of the sunday majors.  I think it'd be awesome.

Dude told me that due to the economy that things have gotten so bad that the superusers at UB/Absolute/Cereusly? have had to start multitabling.

True?
