why take you to another table after big win

#1 18th February 2009, 2:24 PM

in freeroll tournament,every time there is an big win,you will be take to another table.why?

They do that because many people are being knocked out so they have to even out the number of players per table. To do that, they have to move players from one table to another.

A BIG win at a table, especially in freerolls, means that 2 or more players at your table are knocked out. So there are empty seats, this at several tables. Usually they shut down the table with the least remaining players and put them on tables where only one seat is open...
If you win big, knocking out players, you get MOVED!!

Many times a player is moved because of the seat they are in. Much as they do in live MTT's. Position of the SB/BB on the table moving from, but especially the table being moved TO has a lot to do with.

A player just paying the Blinds should not be moved to a table where the open seat is the Blinds - again.

If keeping a seat means that much to you, then ring games are the only thing that will do that.

BTW - it's not just in freerolls. It's in every online and live MTT you will ever play, regardless of the amount of the buy-in.

Well obviously as players are knocked out and tables dissolve, they remaining players are moved to empty seats.
But they also fill up the empty seats in a way that will even out the chips/table. So if you just won a massive pot and eliminated 3 players, you can be moved to a table with shorter stacks to even everything out.

I would say it is table rotation. I believe they try to keep the tables and chips all as even as they can until you start getting down to the end. This way you won't have a table with 2 huge chip stacks and everyone else ready to be blinded out.

Full Tilt is very good about this. Never moved more than 1 seat ahead of where I was. If anything, they move you behind. Like if you were in mid position, they'll move you to the dealer then have you sit out the blinds.

But often I've won a big hand and didn't get moved. Or 2 people are taken down and no one gets moved, they moved others to MY. table. There's just no telling what will happen. Agree it is annoying to be moved. I like to sit out the first round or 2 completely unless I have something major, and get reads.

I hate being moved on tourneys. You work hard to get the image you want, to know the other players, and when you are taking advantage from it... PA! you get moved.

It can have good effects also. I mean, when you have been at a table for a while and a new guy/gal gets sat you have no idea how he plays. And if he has a large stack, hmmmmm. If your that guy/gal same effect on other players.
But ya, sometimes it is annoying. Seems to always happen when I find a friendly table, then I get moved to the table with the biggest whiner in the world. You know the guy who crys when his pocket 2s get beat and he cant beleive the other guy called with 9 10 suited.

I noticed that the other day. They have to keep the tables balanced and some people had just got KO'd. I went back to my old table about two hands later, same seat. LOL. Everytime I win a big hand and they move me to another table, I go back and look and someone else has been move to my hot seat. I hate that. X

Without the option of moving folks around, how do you expect the site to properly rig the outcome?

#13 21st February 2009, 9:43 PM

I happen o agree. I think that if you are the BIG winner at a table, you spent either time or luck figuring out betting patterns and learning the ins and outs of everyone play at your table, i hate getting moved after i get a read on everyone >.>

#14 22nd February 2009, 7:50 PM

well reading the above comments i agree but sometimes its probably best to move u when u run into the kind of people that rag u cause u were in the hand with the bb and happen to hit or when u suckout at least they dont get the chance but most is because of balancing of the tables

#15 22nd February 2009, 9:56 PM

Man, i hate getting moved too

atleast you mnake chips when you knock people out right? heh.

Getting moved is just part of playing MTT's. If having reads and knowing the table competition is that important, then you need to stick with ring games.

I know this thread started with specifying 'in freerolls', but it's no different at buy-in tourneys - at ANY level buy-in. Buy into the Sunday Million on Stars (I think it's $215) and see how many times you get moved ...
