@NotSpewheb @NjBettingGuru The people were curious! I would’ve retired if I had AA.

@dude904 @NotSpewheb @CaesarsEnt @WSOP @pokerorg I also think a lot of companies/operators in the space just do what they’ve been doing because they’re scared to make changes. No one wants to put their name on a change bc if it fails they look dumb.

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@NotSpewheb @dude904 @CaesarsEnt @WSOP It’s just not a big deal for Vegas if they make it earlier and it’s really great for East coast. It’s a beneficial decision for WSOP if the goal is to make the most money

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@dude904 @NotSpewheb @CaesarsEnt @WSOP Definitely realize it’s not going to change. I just don’t see why they would want East coast players to play from 630-730pm until 7-8am. Many skip them because of it. If they started at 330pm-430pm ET w/ their 4-5hr late reg period…it’s better for everyone

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@dude904 @NotSpewheb @CaesarsEnt @WSOP yeah I mean maybe with traveling players at the series it’s 60-40 West vs East (Idk exact #’s) but still the point remains—moving up start times or adding more day 2s is a simple adjustment that benefits all, especially with 4+ hrs of late reg anyway.

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@PokerJermz @BobMerwald There’s a million things they can do. More day 2s, multi flights, move up start times, slightly faster structures, shorter late reg periods, etc…

@NotSpewheb @CaesarsEnt @WSOP If there was a rational explanation for this I’d stand down — I just don’t get it

@NotSpewheb @CaesarsEnt @WSOP (you forgot PA too)

@dude904 @GregHPoker @MDLivePoker Yeah the 2k 500k main works well enough for them, and I appreciate they continue to run it. They also post constant updates on X. I think MD live does a good job overall. They’re consistent. The best rooms are consistent and don’t slash BIs and guarantees after bad decisions.

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@dude904 @GregHPoker @MDLivePoker MD live has done some good things and they at least run a series 4x year. Philly live runs a 350 mystery on Easter weekend 🤣🤦‍♂️

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@dude904 @GregHPoker yep, it stinks

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@dude904 @GregHPoker it’s wild because we all want the same. I’ve offered to help so many times but I guess there’s an ego aspect of it where everyone once to put their own spin on things

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@Nick_Palma1010 @BobMerwald @Purchaase day 2 Wednesday and then slash guarantees when missing 🤦‍♂️

[Andrew Porter @And_Porter]

@LivePoker_PHL why not run real tournaments ever? Maryland live runs a series 4x a year.
