Do not play the Sahara 7pm NL tourney, the structure is horrible.
The play 11 handed all the way through so when you get short stacked, which is by level 4 for 90% of the people there is no wiggle room to make moves.
The levels are like this:
1 25/25
2 25/50
3 50/100
4 100/200
5 200/400
6 400/800 instead of 300/600
and so on.
first 2 levels we didn't even have complete orbits. Too many people at the tables taking their time.
You start off with $2,000 so you can see by level 4 you're already at 10x's the big blind by level 5 you're short stacked.
There is a rebuy after level 3 but it's only $1,500 more. so still once level 4 hits you're short.
The midnight tourney at the Plaza is a bit better. Not as many people so it's just 10 per table also the structure I like a bit better.
1. 25/50
2. 50/100
3. 100/200
4. 100/200 $25 ante
5. 200/400 $25 ante
6. 300/600 $25 ante and so on.
The Plaza I had A/K suited and the guy turned over Aces. Friend of mine did make the final table tho'.
