    Mumsie isnt to know the buy in, it seemed like you just wanted to make a brag as there isnt much relevance of mentioning this other tournament. The structure is the key thing, starting stacks, blind levels, length of blinds etc etc.

    It depends on the blind structure rate of increase and time between increases in the blinds. As a rough guide it tends to end within a level or two at the level before the total chips in play is about 50BB. So in your example if the starting stacks were 2,000 and there were 2,500 runners it means there are 5,000,000 chips in play so divide by 50 and you have 100,000 so expect it to end about 1 level before the level of BB= 100,000. This is just a rough guide.

    In Response to Re: Countdown to UKOPS : lol, behave yourself. It was interesting that you adapted to PLO8 so quickly. Truth is, it's less to do with knowing the game type (NLH, PLO, PLO8 or whatever) than understanding the formulaic logic of SNG's & DYM's. I have a sneaking suspicion, even though I don't play NLH, as I don't play it too good, that I could probably get away with it in regular speed NLH DYM's.   There are some logics in DYM's that are irrefutable, & yet so many ignore them. I "won" a DYM with half a big blind last night (I was on the BB next hand) when the two big stacks went to war. How do these things happen? As a big stack, 4 handed, only two things matter - preserving my big stack, & busting Mr Shortie. Go to war with the other big stack? You are having a laugh.....

    I have played it before but never researched strategy but I always find it good fun.  Always amazing when the big stacks go at each other when your sitting short, as a big stack its crazy to go against the other big stack when you only get paid for a top half finish. I hope to see you playing some UKOPS events, preferably at the final table against me!
