Default Re: $12/180 turbos on stars now

I HATE the new $12/180 tournaments. Why can't they make them regular instead of turbo?? Does anyone else feel the same way and if so email support to complain. I already did.

If you don't like them, don't play them... stars is not tying you to a chair and forcing you to four-table them.

That he wants a $12/180 with full blinds?

If so then, instead of complaining about a tournament already offered, ask for the addition of what you want... no reason for you to [censored] up something that a lot of us like.

i guesss i'll be okay with the reg $20/180s but can someone explain why people like the turbos so much? i know it runs alot faster, but skilled players have less edge, etc etc, pretty lame to see the $10/180s go after ive been grindin them past 3 months and they are easy and i feel like turbos are just flipping and/or catching cards morso then regular 180s and i'm not here to gambol (all the time [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]), etc

They're not going to have regular $12/180s and turbo $12/180s. Why not just make them regular like the $4 and $20?

I am disappointed that the $10 regular 180's are gone, but think having the $12 turbo is great when you only have a few hours to kill. And as Shaun said in the thread I posted over at MTT, this may actually drive more players to the regular $20 ones especially as people move up from these $12 ones. Should also lead to some lucky donks coming over to the $20 ones thinking they're skilled after a few get lucky turbo finishes.

I guess the length of time it was taking for the $10 to fill (45+ minutes) is why stars is trying the $12 turbos. They fill much faster, but I'm just not down with multi-tabling these donkaments, skilled player's edge is certainly diminished in this structure. As for over/under on the 110%ROI, this is a lock under, skill still matters, but many decisions become much easier due to avg. stacks having such low M's midway through, making it tougher to make moves, squeezes etc., fold equity diminishes big time.

what's this 3 minute blind crap? make it 1 minute. after 15 minutes we'd be at 1500/3000 blinds. that's poker. not this sissy 3 minute stuff.
