Hi,

I'm trying to find out what platform of poker don't have late registration in MTT.
If there is one or at least late registration is much less then other poker platforms.
When a tournament starts you have to be there at that hour, when you have to pick the train or the airplane you don;t have one hour after he lieavs from that place... this strategy is not ok for serious poker players... because you make a strategy after that tournaments starts and you look lately to the standings and at the table the last registered guy has more chips than you or even better he is chip leader.
In that hour you invest focus and your time... maybe the other guy that come two hours later in that tournament he slept and right now he is refreshed... honestly that is not correct.
:confused:

Catching a train or a plane is not the same as playing an MTT.

Most sites have late registration, as do most live MTTs. I believe a number of wsop events have late registration. You just need to read the MTT lobby and see what the rules are and if there are any late registrations.

I know BetOnline and Sportsbetting has 1 hour late registration for most games except for their freerolls and some others. These are pretty decent as far as late registration goes.

this is just a marketing strategy to let late registration going...to bring money for them and to affect the poker player.
I tried to compare those two things that your brain would understand.

The problem may be late registration in 2-3 hours. 10-15 minutes is not a problem.

30 or 60 minutes - only matters if the levels grow fast enough. But if the stack is deep and the blinds are slow - then this is normal.

Was that an attempt at an insult?

My brain understands just fine. Still not the same thing.

Obviously, it's to bring in more money for the site. It's also more money in the prize pool, so it's good for everybody. Well, better for the top finishers.

I agree. 2-3 hours it a bit excessive unless it's a really big GTD MTT. However, a player should know what they're getting into before registering. If you register into an MTT with a 3 hour late registration, that's on you as a player.

If you don't want to play those, then pay attention to the structure and don't register for them.

Like you avatar edit.

you said it right "more money you can win" more players less chances to win something.
and thats the fact, poker platforms they don t do any favour adding late ragistration for poker players this future is just for them for theire business.

Im always happy for people to late reg. They're paying the same amount as me and sometimes only get 10bb or less. I'd never pay for such a disadvantage but happy for others to.

Late registration on pokerstars are pretty normal .. you can play turbos or hyper if you don't have enough time , but you know the structure .. it's a bit annoying depending on your play style , also SNG a great solution .Personally all poker rooms has good late register period except ACR , it's too long and annoying .

In tournaments with a small number of players there is no late registration, it is good for the game and you can play and quickly get into the prize zone and receive a prize, see tournaments where there is registration with a small number of players and play!

A place that has no late reg.

There's a cardroom called Global Poker that has no late registration on their tournaments. Cardschat freerolls have a short late registration period.

Most Betonline/Sprotsbetting MTTs only have 50 minutes (5 levels) of late reg. ACR is notorious for long late reg. periods (3-5 hours), but there are some MTT's with shorter periods: freerolls range from 20-40 minutes, $0.55 on demand tournies have 60 minutes, and some smaller GTD tournies on ACR have 2 hours late reg.

I think SNG are the way to avoid all this. Upto 360 person SNGs fill up fast, are freeze out, and you dont have all the late registration issues

This is a marketing strategy of many poker rooms to get more money from the rack. I accept this but late registration is about half an hour.

I like long late rego sites, any players that register and receive a under 20BB stack give themselves a big disadvantage.

Hi,

:confused:



Honestly admit it is a bit of a weird question! When I started playing online poker at that time (2009–2010) there were many Freezeouts tournaments ... but due to the fact that they often or sometimes didn’t follow the tournament guarantee, poker rooms started to make them with late registration and re-entry to avoid prize money shortages. Therefore, I do not believe you will find such a poker room where many MTT freezeout. if you want to play tours without late registration do as TheNutz4You says - play S&G on 45, 90, 180 or 360plrs. )))

Personaly me I also miss that days when i can play tousr without Late registration!
