I dont know if anyone noticed these tourneys that you start with 2.5k with 30 minute blind levels. They had 2 that i could find on stars, a $7 and $8 buy in. I e-mailed pokerstars asking when they are scheduled for, the buy ins and if they were permant. Im going to try to play one this week, if anyone wants to to, let me know.

hadn't seen them, might have to take a look, but 9 hours is a little much, even for me, for a tournement with that kind of pay out

Hello ,

These are events we are running to test structures to be used for some of
our WCOOP events. I am not sure how often we will run these and, as of
now, they are not permanent. But it is likely we will be adding some of
these to our regular schedule.

Thanks for writing PokerStars and if there is anything else we can help
you with, please let us know.

With "only" 662 players in this event, I shudder to think how long it would have been with a field of thousands.

9 hours - what's the point? Looks like it's taking way too long.

Should be more of these. The good players might win more often then . 10 min blinds and they dont even call it a speed tournament anymore. Now it has to be 3 mins or 1 min...lol. Bring on the 1hr blind, never sleep marathons, that's what I say . Lets test everyone's metal.

And I am barely even joking.
