To be honest tricks I don't think the problem is the starting stack, 1000 is fine, I don't really mind the antes to be honest. One thing they've introduced is it stops people who are very short stacked from folding every hand and creeping up an extra couple of places.

I think the problem lies with the blind level increase rate. I totally agree with lasts points. It does got to a stage, very quickly, where you are under a lot of pressure to get your chips in with any moderate hand. The blind levels on Sunday night were 500/1000 long before we reached the final table. As last points out, with 70k ish in chips, even at the final table thats an average of just 7k each, thats 5 rounds at the table before your blinded out.

I would request the blind levels go back to what they were, or they at least double the starting stack so we can handle the blinds increases better.
