As I play mostly freerolls, I don't really care about late registration times. The more fish the more chips for me and the greater the chance of me making the money. Good luck to everyone at the tables.

I don't mind late registration, but I try to register in the first level.

I understand if it's a guaranteed tournament. They have to have enough lead time for as many registrations (and rebuys/addons) to meet the guarantee.

Having said this, I do hate long registration times.

Not enough information to formulate an opinion, but I would say it depends on what type of tourney we are referring too. Some games to me are more advantageous to show up later than sooner, did I buy in or did I join a FREEROLL with rebuy and add parameters, is it a bounty game with rebuy options? Is it a knockout formula? What are the starting chips, what are the players left doing, what is it going to take to make it to the bubble? I think a late registration is better than none as long as there is a limit to how many can play for a min. of 30 minutes, playing in games with 9 levels of late reg is a marathon to play, is it worth it?:deal:

The Freerolls with more or less than 1:00 hours are already annoying, your opponents enter with the same as you or sometimes even more than your coins, they already launch Allinn, whether or not they have good cards, most of the time, they get in the way. In my opinion, 10 minutes is pretty good.

HATE HATE HATE it. I honesty wonder if they got rid of them all together if the number of entries would drop much. When I open my poker site I am going to play, no matter what. A few minutes late registration maybe for a grace period, but to make it an hour or more is just opening the door for people to take advantage of a situation. Just my opinion!!

I think tournaments are to long sometimes, for me anyways. So the late registration times that are an hour or more I typically avoid all together.

well we all know people who are always late and typically give them (or even strangers) 10 or so minutes leeway but no tourney should give any more than that...:confused:

hi

I really don't hate late registration very much because they are the rules of the game and the more people enter, the bigger the jackpot

I definitely HATE Late registration should only be an hour long with add ons and rebuys not no 5 hours long. This you plenty of time to do what you have to do especially if you're running late

In principle, I do not like long registration in any tournaments. But in some rooms it is not so long, for example partypoker.

Well, i don't really like'em when they are way too long, but i think it's really hard to enter with a short stack and i cant even imagine using the latest registrarion technique. Maybe onde day when i have a lot more knowledge and BR i can try it out

I only like tournaments without late registration and without any rebuys or addons. It is also desirable that the speed of the increase of the blinds was at least 10 minutes per level.
For some reason, KO tournaments i also do not like.

It is what it is, so I just adjust my game and play a tight range until registration is over. Tight range being. TT+, ATs+, KTs+, AKo . Hopefully in 3 hours I can get a couple of hands and wins a big pot or two, the goal being to have at least double the starting stack by the end of registration.

Late registration

Late registrations aren't so bad. Many times, I can't catch tourney when it first starts so it is awesome to know I can still make it if I'm preoccupied at the time, it starts

I dislike 3+ hr late registration. I played SitnGos for a number of months so I would put 3 ot 4-hour sessions. So my play drops off after the 4th hour so I rarely play anything slow structure and long late reg.

I dislike the long late registration. It’s makes the tournament go way too long. If anything make 10 minutes max.
