so, it's been over a month now, and the blinds in wombats are still starting at 5/10.
fine, if that's the way it's gonna be... BUT...
i got a chance a few days ago to play the NY times and noticed that the blinds started as they normally had: 10/20. I was excited, thinking 'woohoo they finally fixed it! ' .. but alas,,, later that nite played in Wombats and STILL it was 5/10...
Now, as i dont normally get a chance to play any other tourneys than Wombats, I wouldnt know what the normal setup is .. but Ive been told by a regular in the BC, at least, that the blinds dropped to 5/10 along with the change to Wombatz.
So......

WHY is there a discrepancy.... still...???

It's hardly fair or equal to have the daily 'Big 4' OP games set up with different blind structures.... and, Im sorry, even though it's only one level/round added, it seems to have a very big impact on the game...making it almost glacial in it's speed. Recently played in one with barely over 20 players that lasted almost 3 hours!!

IS THERE ANY UPDATE OR NEWS ABOUT THIS SITUATION, PLEASE?
thank you

I agree this is a problem: first the discrepancy between big tournaments (still old structure on hetmans too, and I think BC as well... from last game I played, at least).

But also, while I love in principle a slow blind structure in real cash events, Wombats has become too much of a time toll for me to play except on rare occasions

I imagine a few others must feel the same.

Ive just been in contact with 24/7 I havent played wombats for a while so thought it had been sorted. There going to pass the info on AGAIN to the tournie manager and they will email me I will let you know what they say if I hear from them.
