New Mirage 1pm Tourney
Just heard a rumor tonight that Mirage just this week started dealing 1pm $330 tournaments with 1-hour rounds. That seemed too good to be true so I just called 'em. It's true. 4000 starting chips. 25/50 starting blinds. 60 minute rounds. Signup starts at 11:30.
Guess they finally figured out the needed to do something to compete with Wynn and Caesars. And hey...if I bust out early from Wynn or Caesars noon tourney I can hightail it over to Mirage and start over an hour later. |

Re: New Mirage 1pm Tourney
Wohoo, 12 hour tourneys just for the locals [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] If I was much of a tourney play, I woulnd't mind longer levels, and if I'm going to play in a tourney, I'm going to make sure I have the extra time to do it.
Honestly, I dont think many tourists will play these because they are wayyyy too long for the average person playing daily tourneys while in town. |

Re: New Mirage 1pm Tourney
Photoc,
You are assuming that the tourists will even relize that the tourney is going to take 12 hours when they sign up.

Re: New Mirage 1pm Tourney
Mike, I get asked probably 10x a day how long the tourney will last. When I say 4 hours to the end..."oh thats way too long, we have (insert plans here) in an hour!!!" is the type of response I get 100% of the time.

[/ QUOTE ] I was grumbling at the tourney director of one of the cheapy buyin tourneys because of the 15-minute rounds and crappy overall structure. He said, "believe it or not, the single biggest complaint we get about our tourneys is that they last too long at 3 to 3.5 hours." Thank goodness Wynn and Caesars have come along. And if they can keep it going, now Mirage. |
