4 cards dealt on the flop K456 guy has AK vs A9...floor asks players what ruling should be..then returns and mixes 4 cards and picks king to remove. other guy goes runner runner straight...only at summer camp.

Taking Running Bad to the Next Level

A floor had to be called over when a four-card flop was spread while Ricky Landais was all-in and at-risk against Bobby James’ worse ace deep in the $10K GGMillions.

The ruling was correctly decided.

The four cards were scrambled face-down and a burn was established, but the runout is hard to watch.

@SpaceyFCB @FarazJaka @SavagePoker and day and night flight bag around same time so the diff in numbers seems to point that most view 20 as a hyper, 30 as a turbo, and 40 as a standard mtt and greatly prefer 40 wiĺl accept 30 and will tolerate 20. just my .02.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@SpaceyFCB @FarazJaka @SavagePoker historically the last flight was always the biggest by far. that has changed to 2nd to last flight as lots think 20 is too fast but we tolerate as a last option. take ept monaco open. day 1a was way bigger than normal simply cuz it was 1 of only 2 40 min options for day 1.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@SpaceyFCB @FarazJaka @SavagePoker if 30 and 40 where arbitrary and interchangeable the players and there dollars would support that. but it is super clear that players view 30 and 40 differently. some venues try a combo of 30 day 1 to get itm then 40 day 2 for more play to try to balance these preferences.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@SpaceyFCB @FarazJaka @SavagePoker you can look at stars data for all epts last few years and how many entrants each flight for same event gets. its clear players have a huge preference for 40 min levels in a "standard" mtt, and already view 30 min as fast. the nums tell the story pretty clearly n consistently

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@SpaceyFCB @FarazJaka @SavagePoker its not arbitrary at all. if players perceive/view it as a turbo to call it anything else just tries to hide that perception. just call it what players view it as. you might be first person i met thinks u have lots of manueveribility in 20 min levels...

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@michaelm1313 @SavagePoker @FarazJaka yes noone is saying otherwise.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@abarone68 @WSOP she also tried to award me the pot when i lost..favorite dealer so far..will return 😂😂😂

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

first 10 min of wsop:
dealer tries to give me 3 cards
dealer deals flop w action pre after being told not to deal flop cuz she missed the action
dealer tried to award pot to wrong player
welcome to summer camp @WSOP

@DarrenRabbi @Protentialmn @AriEngelPoker 145k..175k...i stopped counting at free money..tomato tomatoe

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@Protentialmn @AriEngelPoker @DarrenRabbi both are valid but 145k is easiest for communicating w the masses...agree w sunk cost arguement as well..

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@SavagePoker @AriEngelPoker @FarazJaka i dont really have a dog in this fight..just twlling you player perception which i think is diff than management perception.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@DarrenRabbi @Protentialmn i would expect you too. im talking about tom from ohio.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@AriEngelPoker @SavagePoker @FarazJaka tournies ending in 8 hours or less are hypers..8 hours to one day turbo. more than one day, standard tournament imo.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@SavagePoker maybe years ago this was true. think most 40 min torunies ive seen run on similar structures and dont have these "bad" levels anymore. like if venue wants a turbo they run 30 min and if they dont they run 40+. to run 40 w bad levels is just bad design if i have to be honest.

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@FarazJaka @SavagePoker ive never seen a bunch if players think or refer to 30 min levels as normal or standard..it has always been presented to me at least as a turbo...

[Jason Wheeler @JDPC27]

@FarazJaka @SavagePoker im not saying its not common in dailies and one days. its still a turbo. just common and acceptable length for those torunaments.
