I have not gone but am intrested as I live in NH. One thing concerned me reading their site: They list a time 1hour 50mintues for their multis. IF that is the case then they are only 5 levels long? For instance the 100 that starts at 9:00 pm, yet at the top of the page they say the close at 11:00 pm?

Hmmm.......good point, I don't really know? I was told the first three levels were 25 minutes each, then 20 minutes thereafter. But yeah, if they close at 11pm, how do they handle that? Do they just go by chip counts or what??? I'll have to try and find out.

Did you end up checking out Manchester last night?

I tried montecarlonh in Nashua Friday night. Pretty good structure for NH: 135 buyin, 100 towards prize pool with no rebuys. 3500 starting chips, 20 min levels, blinds 25/25, 25/50, 50/100, 100/200, etc. 47 people entered. Dealers were actually pretty good as they kept the action moving and dealt fairly fast. I was pretty card dead and busted in level 6 around 24th place. I am definately considering attending again as it is only an hour drive for me.

I had my own home game going last night, so I didn't have the opportunity to check it out. But I will sooner or later. I think they have some coupons online that I can use to play one of the rebuys for free (well, one buy-in, doesn't include any additional)

I have played at all of these places below in NH including this one that wasn't mentioned in this tread......

http://nhpoker.net <-----Plays Mondays in Manchester, has 7pm $50 rebuy tourney and lots of $25 $50 SNG's on the side. The people that run this place are OK but the structures in the multi's could be better, SNG's are fun and soft.

http://www.playnhpoker.com <-----Plays $50 rebuy tourneys Saturdays at 12:30 and 6PM, I happen to like this place the most out of the three due to the blind structure, who runs it, and how they run it.

http://www.montecarlonh.com <----- Has a good $135 no rebuy tourney due to its blind structure and starting chip count but other than that I find the other side games + tourneys they have are poop. The guy that runs this operation is also a little shady in how the "for charity" thing works.......

But all in all the three places are definitely an alternative to playing at Foxwoods' tourneys that have heavy juice and crappy payout structure.

Yeah, I've seen the other sites, but figured the PlayNH site looked like the best setup. They still haven't responded to my email asking how their tournament ends (if they close at 11pm but start a tournament with a reasonable structure at 9pm, what do they do when 11pm hits????)

They also have some coupons I could use there as well, so I'll probably give that a go in the near future. Thanks for the response.

Did you play in Manchester this weekend? Not to keep bugging you or anything, just wondering what it was like.

I haven't played there yet. I've got a wedding coming up in a month, plus finishing up my home games. And I fix peoples computers on the side and my days off from work were filled with computer stuff.
