I have found it quite hard to settle into the bigger fields after playing in ones of around 150-200 players...

Having made Laddies my home for the last 3 odd years the influx of new players and new games is quite hard to get my head round and in a way even though Laddies has joined forces with micro gaming to me its a bit like moving a bird into your house......you always felt you had the run of things and now that has slipped away a bit.....

The one thing i think they have got very wrong is this late entry....firstly this should only be open for 15 mins and secondly if joining after the tournie has started i think you should incur some sort of penalty ....(ie)...Maybe post a 200 ante or even pay an extra entry fee say 10% of the buy in......too many join rebuys with 10 mins to go rebuy straight away and then take the add on amassing say 6000 odd chips after only playing maybe one hand......

Im still playing a few of the Laddies only tournements but of course the gtds are minimal now and it feels Laddies are pushing players to play the bigger gtds with the massive fields..

Im finding the $10 stt games a doddle though and players on these of a fairly poor atandard.......so bad that i won 5 out of 5 the other day......

As for the disconections these are happening a bit too often and thats something that needs sorting and quickly as ive heard of quite a few examples of players being discoed in the middle of big hands and this shouldnt be happening when you have chips in a pot....

I will attempt a few of the bigger entry tournies next month when my mind set is better and like Herbie says there are easy pickings early on in mtt....

The jurys still out as far as im concerned.....
