I thought Foxwoods was a relatively bad structure. It starts off with play, but I think it has less play in the later stages than a lot of other 10k events. It is still nothing to brag...

The new EPT structure was great.
"Middling levels" (ex: 75/150, 1,200/2,400 among others) with sightly less time (60min) > Longer levels with bigger jumps.

Actually the EPT event that we played recently had amazing structure, and the final table structure is even better because they don't change anything for the television broadcast.

Re: Best $10k events of the year?
Good question. I would rank the "best" structures as follows:
Group 1:
WSOP ME (10k), 2 hour levels & many levels make this the best structure in spite of a relatively fast start.

Re: Final tables taking 1/2 as long at 2007 WSOP
Great post by OP.
I compared the 2006 $5k NL (Cabinillas) to the 2007 $5k NL (Mackay).
The final table started at level #18 (8/16k, or 16/32k if there was double starting chips) in 2006,...

Re: WSOP blind structure is only marginally better.
I used the term "effectively" doubled and not "exactly" doubled as there are some very small differences. For example, 150/300/25 becomes 300/600/75 vs. 300/600/50, and 800/1600/200 becomes...
