Default Re: Oaks Card Club Emeryville Tournament

I've played in their bigger tournaments and the occasional weekly effort a few times. They're not horrible structures, tho' still a bit fast. I don't have it in front of me, but the blinds will start at either 20/20 or 20/40, going up somewhat casually from there (20/40, 40/60, 60/120). It's not bad and you get a decent amount of wiggle room for a few hours, after which everyone starts to be a bit short-stacked M-wise and the eliminations start coming fast and furious.

They tend to cap these things at 200 people. Top 20 pay, top prize is 27%-30%, I think.

Sorry I don't have more specific info. If I had the time this weekend, I'd definitely be playing it. There are a lot of decent players in them, but a surprising amount of dead money.

PS, our own L0QTiS placed second in their WSOP satellite series this past Sunday. Yay for him.
