Hi i got involved in the last hand before the break and got knocked out the primo sat. I had no idea that the break was after the hand or i would have folded not got involved in the hand . I ended up with second top pair with a straight draw and the guy had pocket aces i want to squash a big grape let me tell you ahrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. To cut a long story short can we have the break times highlight on the tables plzzzzzzzzzz

    Why does it matter when the break is to how you play your hand?

    yeah im not sure why this matters

    also, if you know hat levels your playin, ie 10 min blinds, its pretty easy 2 work out

    I agree with this, good point maybe wrong place to put. The fact a break is just about to happen does defer how you play a hand imo, obviously not if massive cooler but you may just decide to sit out a playable hand like pocket 3s. although i usually know roughly when the breaks are would be sooo much easier if you had it on the table or where says next level break cos sometimes i wont think about it and it does affect how you play your hand imo

    The breaks are every hour so if the blinds are 5mins then the break is after level 12, 10 minutes level 6, 12 minutes level 5, just look at the countdown timer, its not difficult to see! Also if you look in the tournament lobby it tells you the running order.

    Dis-agree batkin, firstly the blinds increase so you have to be aware of this

    also people play differently around the break, so have to adjust accordingly. last 5 minutes leading up to break i personally prefer to nit up then refresh at the break ready for round 2 :o)

    In Response to last hand prior to break is cooler city fold your aces:
