BST Considerate Poker Tournament Started by: LucaGiordano on Aug 10, '17 14:18

The Poker Tournament currently kicks off at 0000/0100 (depending on daylight savings) UK time. I tried attending once, I was playing until 0400.

I don't know if they normally last that long, but a BST starting time running along with the US time one would be much appreciated. 

2000? 2100?

Report Post Tip

I'd suggest earlier, around 1900, so people could attend both if they so wished.

But, I agree. An earlier one would be nice for UK/Europe in general.

Thoughts from anyone else?

Wouldn't mind a rotating schedule to include more timezones.

The past few weeks have all netted 10+ players, that there are even more wanting to hop in, is excellent. Perhaps a 19:00, Sunday evenings? Could even be held on Saturday with the other one, a 5 hour gap should be plenty.

Report Post Tip

The more the merrier, and yes a BST schedule would be much appreciated.

Micro-sleeps in-between hands am sure isn't helping my chances of winning. 

Report Post Tip
All for multiple poker opportunities.

Anyone support this?  If so, please specify what game time you would want the one game adjusted to (and list the west coast time, east coast time, and uk time equivalent)

If you are rooting for two games... list the game times (and list the west coast time, east coast time, and uk time equivalent)

Given the difference between BST and PST is 8 hours, I think the only reasonable time would be like 1-2 pm PST/4-5 pm EST/9/10pm BST. Is that correct math?

 

Those hours all seem reasonable, and if they're during the weekends, work isn't an issue for the majority on the west coast given their earlier times. I'm not sure how late the games run; I participated in 2 and was knocked out fairly quick so I promised I wouldn't do it again for awhile lmao. 

 

Those who play, do you think those are reasonable times?

Report Post Tip

Posted those times in awkward manner...

 

PST: 1-2 pm

EST: 4-5 pm

BST: 9-10 pm

 

Sorry for that typo that made it kinda confusing.

Are those times suitable to people across the pond though? Would have thought it best to have two games rather than try and arrange everyone into the one game, which is why this suggestion has come up.

If there was a UK game at 9/10pm then id play everytime, i simply dont play at the moment due to the time it starts, as I always end up going all in pretty quickly as I just need to get to bed.

So Yeah Dub I like your times if it was just one Game. For two games I would simply keep the current game thats already in place at its regular time, but then add a UK timed game at BST 22.00
