TKO Deepstack question..

edited November 2009 in Poker Chat
I saw the final leg of the TKO tourney is going to be a deepstack,

So are the blinds and chip stacks going to be the usual 5k chips and 12min blinds?

Only asking as i saw 991 people entered for the TKO and ive only played deepies on here at max of around 100 entrants and they last a good 4 hours at least.

So how long will this tourney last roughly?

    they might after run it over 2 nights which could be fun i suppose, cant see it finishing in 4 hours with 991 entried unless blinds are reduced or maybe chip stacks

    "I don't know yet " is the answer.

    I expect they will speed up the Clock.

    the donks will knock themselevs out, i wouldn't expect it to run that much longer, maybe a few more levels than on a usual DS event.

    very few people know how to play deep, and they won't take account their BB situation.  they will stack off just as easily as they would in the velocity.

    Will we need a "day 1a", "day 1b" etc due to a lack of seats?

    It wont last much longer than 10 hours, if everyone turned up there would be just under 5 million chips in play, so the final table would average 800,000 each so everone will definately be able to make work in the morning.
