Ok i just did a $55 2-table sng that took 1 hour 5 minutes to get to headsup. Maybe it won't be as big a difference as we think. The other thing I noticed was that the lack of 150/300 blind level is brutal. I went from having 11BB and being comfortable to having 5BB and being in big trouble. I'm more optimistic after this.

With timed blinds. It means a lot more hands at the same blind level when there are fewer people. So the first one might only get 6 hands, but it increases at an insane rate.

Im not going to like the 75/150 and 150/300 levels being gone. I feel like the 75/150 is more important to me. Everyone was freaking out when they split from the skins and that worked out just fine and this is less of a deal.

I played a $6 MTT and noticed that blind jump too...It was a 3 table and got down to 15 people before I played a single hand..i was only down to t1600 Low buy-in MTTs are crazy, never played one before [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]...but yeah that jump is heinous...Time Management got me through it though...oh and K4s [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Didn't they say that there was going to be random seating now? Seemed like normal seating process from what I saw.

Can anyone do the math on the old structure versus the new structure?

Like blind size versus chip size? From doing it quickly in my head, I think the change isn't too big of a variance from the old one.
