WSOP Circuit Structures

[Salmo Trutta]

Are the structures the same for all WSOP Circuit events? In other words, does a $1,0000 event in Tunica have the same starting chips and structure as a $1,0000 event in New Orleans?

I am particularly interested in the structures for the Tunica event that starts later this month, but they aren't on the WSOP website or the Grand Casino Tunica website. Does anyone here know where to find these? It looks like they would be standard for all Circuit events and posted somewhere.

Have you checked out the http://www.worldseriesofpoker.com website under past events?

I know when I played in the $330 WSOPCE at Ceasars Indiana last March, we started with 2k in chips, and the blinds rose ever 40 min or so.

I'm guessing it will be something simular to that.

You can also always go to the help section as well, and e-mail them a question as to when the structures will be posted.

I've found them to be quite responsive in the past, in answering questions that is.

I think he (Salmo Trutta) just grabbed an example out of his head and went with it.

In any case, here is the direct link here:

to this years events.

However, it doesn't seem like they have any information on the structures even still.

When someone finds these structures please post where they are. I called Tunica and a worker in the poker room told me they didn't have them yet but the tournament director was not there so I may try back later. It is a little frustrating that these poker rooms can generate events without publishing structures. Who wants to pay money for a crappy structure. If the structure is no good I won't attend

I went to Ceasars in Indiana in the Spring it was a WSOP event. I played a small tourney $500 buy in and reviewed the structure prior to the tournament. During the tournament 2 blind levels were removed and this was first noticed when things took a large jump about 2 hours into the tournament. I questioned the staff after the event and was told levels were removed to speed up the event and this was decided prior to the event but the flyers showing the structure were not changed. I think this is fraud and how are players expected to play under these condition? I had thought about contacting Harrahs directly about this but I forgot. Has anyone had a similiar experience?

Anyway all these WSOP events seem to be different from good to bad and somehow I think Harrahs should establish a standard system or at the least publish the blind structures when they decide on the schedule. Just telling someone they will have a $1000 buy in event on a certain day is not enough for a player to decide if he wishes to participate.

I got an e-mail back from Harrah's in response to my e-mail to them telling me to e-mail an individual person (I don't feel confortable posting that e-mail addy here in public view).

I have done so, and will post the information (I only asked for the $500 + 50 event, as that is what I'm playing in) over here:

once I get it.

FWIW ... I've posted the information in the thread I mentioned above.
