Late registration in live tournaments
February 29, 2008 by Steve Silver.
I am the tournament director at the River Poker Room at the Mountaineer Casino in West Virginia. I deduct 1 Small Blind and 1 Big Blind for each round the late registering player misses . This never goes past the third round as thats when registration closes. I put the missed blinds into the pot on the first hand that the new player is in as dead money. There are some players that argue with me and want a full stack. They tell me that the Bellagio gives full stacks even if a player is late. I told them that I would give a full stack only if the event was sold out and the players in line were ON TIME. They would be seated as alternates. BUT late players would be blinded off. Any comments?
Thanks
Steve Silver
