Default Re: WPT Mirage Showdown thread

They have not addressed that problem....It is an absolute joke at the final table..the structure at most of these events is great until the final table then they reduce the time of each level to an hour....they force hands to be played slowly for dramatic effect which also limits the hands and the blinds are increased rapidly....some of the early moves are kind of forced by WPT and its really not fair to the players as when the money is the most the skill level is the least.

The main problem comes in when nobody gets eliminated early and stacks cant handle the blinds...if 3 people go in first level then they tend to work out ok, but in some of the episodes when people survive a couple levels it becomes a joke. This really has nothing to do with the Mirage, but does address the question posed.
