St ars is pretty terrible if you work and want to play a decent entry fee.  There is a 6pm $100 one that you can enter up until 7pm.  But if you enter at 6.45 you start with 30 BBs.  Variance is a bit ch in that one with 600-700 entries and nothing decent until the last 9.  I think that finishes about 1am

The 100r starts at 7pm, but the standard is normally v high.  You can easily find youself in for $500.  That finishes around 2/3 am.

There is a $150 and a $50r that I think start between 8 and 9.  They both finish around 4am.

The $50 freezeout starts around 8 and finishes at 4.  That one is so tilting as you can be up way past midnight for $100.

The $100 plo8 starts about 8.45, gets about 70/80 and finishes between 1am and 2.

There are a couple of cr appy turbos starting around 6 or earlier, but that is just big variance flipping.

probably be back playing the gsop tomorrow as I have a $200 ticket.  Wish I'd realised earlier it was a rebuy!
Report McCoy Carp March 10, 2011 10:48 PM GMT
My post from Q&A thread following on from Doobs above:

From my point of view and living in England, and not sure it's a Betfair but Ongame issue, I would like to see some games between $20 and $50 buyins, that attracted between 50 and 100 people, had blinds that were between the current 3 min turbos and 10 min longer formats, started between 8pm to 11pm and went on for around two hours.

Say you come in from work, eat, get everything out of the way by 8pm and sit down for a game of poker knowing you have to be in bed by 11-12 to get up for work the next day? You've got the $12k turbo at 9.30 ($50 buyin) and the $4k turbo at 10pm ($10 buyin. What else is there, discarding the small stake stuff?

I can't be the only one, who is put off by the thought of a 4 hour plus tourney but doesn't want to be playing 3 minute poker bingo all the time. Why is there no in between ground?
Report chipfire227 March 11, 2011 5:38 PM GMT
in my limited experience of playing mtts up to $50 buyin you can give them 5000 chips and 10 minute blinds, and there will still be people going all in pre flop in the first 3 levels, so presumably they decided you may as well just give people 2000 chips and make the blinds 3 minutes.
