FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!

[dag221]

The current tourney structure at the 360 player tournament in Jacksonville is -

$45 buy in
Top 20 get paid ( 10-11 get paid very poorly..actually 5th thru 20th get paid poorly)
18 min. levels
25/50 starting blinds
Starting chips are either 2500 or 3000..I swear I can't remember because I dont' play them very often.

It is a crap shoot because you don't have enough chips to play a decent number of hands without committing all of them at some point early. The tournament structure is more important to me than the actual buy-in amount but I hear almost no one at the Poker Room complaining about anything except the the buy-in being too low.

I swear the other day I saw the payout schedule of a tournament there and first place in the tourney paid LESS than the house take. Usually the house makes more money than the person in second gets but this time the house actually came out on top.
