Re: Foxwoods Tournaments - Chip Increase?

Glad to hear this!
I played not too long ago, caught really bad cards and was out before the first hour because of blinds. Talk about a crap shoot. I got a K-3os and stupidly threw it away before I realized that I had one more blind and I would be out [all I played were my blinds]. Very few hands are dealt before you get blindsided. What a bad, bad structure that was. You got absolutely no play for your money and really get a sense that you've been ripped off.

True, it used to basically be a crapshoot. I had only played a handful of times with the old structure, and once or twice was able to double up early and then begin to build. But any other time, I'd wait for hands that never came. I would find myself with 3BBs left and having to push with absolute junk to to not get blinded off completely. I'd much rather pay the higher buy-in and get some more chips to play with.
Still curious about how long these last now - anyone know? As long as the snow doesn't get too bad, I will be there tomorrow and Friday, so I guess I will see for myself how long they take.
