Default Re: Stalling just outside the money? What?

I have played them. I played about 15, and finished in the money probably 3 times, but once it was 9th.

There is a phase when the blinds are more than anybody has, so everyone stalls. I also think some players stall at the very beginning too. During the stalling phase, an area of poker theory is at play that I must admit I do not fully understand.

I do well in the MTT, and did not like my experience with the speed tournaments.

If they forced the action from the start of the tournament to 10 seconds, then I am sure I would play them.

Pacific Poker has tournaments where the blinds go up much faster then Party's normal blinds. This is not a speed tournament though. Their tournaments take much less time than the normal Party Tournament.
