I assume they assign the byes randomly? Or do they do it by first registered gets the first bye (sometimes it seems that way)?

Also, I've been thinking that when tourneys like this don't fill your chips should carry over from round to round but people who get byes should only carry through the round 1 starting stack. That way, the bye has no value (since they'll be a 2-1 underdog in round 2.

Won on the 11th hand, unfortunate cooler for the guy I was playing, as I runner runnered the nut flush against his 2nd nut flush. Waiting is going to suck.

Mathematically, it's perfectly fair.
