How come every other main event and most tournments on sky have good structure and this one is awful, 33£ for a game of bingo. Blinds are at 100/200 onnthe fifth level, its normally something like 50/100 then 75/150. Rlymdoes make it into a crapshoot and has put me of playing it

    finally someone who agrees with me! its a total donk fest, really dont see the point of paying 33 quid to end up with 10 bigs after less than an hour and having to shove or fold. Dont see a reason for the structure being so fast.

    Then again, it is kinda fun.....

    I agree that it should have a much better structure, but I do find it fun anyway.

    Maybe sky can give us an answer on the question such a big buy in most of the time after 2 hrs the average stack is somewhere in the region of 10-12 bb's TERA BAD STRUCTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I think the reason for the fast structure on the Thursday game is the fact that its shown on Sky Sports as well as 865 and they want to be able to show the final table before the end of the show.  This would also account for the fact that the breaks are only 3 minutes instead of the standard 5.

    This. Pretty obvious really. Be thankful that when the open was on every night, starting at 9pm, it had to finish by midnight, the blinds were ludicrous.

    well now it is not shown as much maybe sky will change the structure a little to accommodate more players. it is really a shove feast.

    and can we have a bigger starting stack for 33 quid.  you get more in the 1-50 sats for this tourny.
