How come the blinds got so big at the end of the 5DC
It looks like it was pushbot at the end. There were some strong players in the final 6 and this didn't seem to give them much of a chance to show what they could do.
It was a 5 day tournament with 550 players and started with real deep money. I wonder why the blinds got so high at the end. Was it the format or did the players play cautiously until they were forced to push by the blinds? |

WPT policy to cause action, and ensure the word "All In" is said.
It's very sad. |

Re: How come the blinds got so big at the end of the 5DC
Just for comparison. Party 50+5 I played over the summer.
Blinds at final hand: 7500/15000, Ante 0, Chips in Play 730000, M for average stack 16.2. Bellagio 5 Diamond Classic: 300000/600000, Ante 50,000, 16000000 chips in play, M for average stack 8. I played heads up for a while in that tourney too so it took a while for the blinds to even get that high. How sad is it when a low buy-in party MTT gives you more play than a WPT event for $2 million at the end? I don't believe anyone "deserves" to win a poker tournament, but Antonius played the best I thought, and he at least deserved a better chance. |
