Druff near top of leaderboard in 5k Limit Hold em event #20

[Deal]

Terrible table for Druff. They have way less chips so it's more likely more of them will bust before they get down to two tables.

Phil Tom is gone and Druff is up to 108k.

Serious question for Druff, maybe address on radio tonight. The structure of this tournament seems so very shallow for the prestige of it all. They are starting today, right after the money bubble, with 17 people with only an average of 12BB. 12BB in a limit tournament? What a crapshoot. They should at least plan to have 20 minimum.

I like how they removed the first few levels and made a longer first level at a higher blind level. This allowed for meaningful play for a long period of time. They should really do the same around the bubble. Just keep the blinds around 2000/4000 for another 4 hours and people can play poker while grinding down to the Final Table.

Maybe put a check into the blind level increase to cancel the increase if the average chipstack is less than 20BB.

I go to sleep and everything goes to shit...WTF.

Good run Druff I was pulling for you. You hung in there for a while, most players (**cough Mycon cough**) would have ran good early and let it slip away fast.

GL next time around. Fucking 9-4...but it was sooted! Fucking douchebag.

Was thinking the same thing - right now even the chip leader has less than 20BB.

All of these are shallow, but this is especially evident in smaller field tournaments. While the average stack is the same, bigger field tournaments yield higher chip leaders, making it appear they are deeper. Also there are more overall chips in the event, which takes longer to win them, again meaning it's deeper.

Guy who bought 46 % of my last stake "Burnsabre" Samuel Golbuff is second in chips as well
