Also, I was a little annoyed that they wrote out the blind structure in an e-mail and changed it when I got there. It partially was responsible for my getting in so deep with the KQ hand.

Originally the blinds were supposed to be:

10/20 1hr
25/50 1hr
every 30 min after 50/100, 100/200, etc

and they changed them to:

10/20 1hr
25/50 30min
every 20 mins after.....

Since I was so close to the blinds going up to 25/50 and we maybe played 25 hands the first hour I felt compelled to try to gather chips since my M would be down to 12 in a few minutes and 3.5 inside of 40 minutes (or 12 for 12hands and then 3.5 for 8-9 hands).

I would have just come off as a dickhead if I said something about the published structure vs. what was announced so I didnt even bother.

The guys who ran the thing took the time to invest in it though. They had 1 legit folding oval table and 3 octagon toppers, I'm guessing 9g chips (they felt real good in the hand), and 100% plastic cards ( a couple of setups of copags and a couple of setups with a brand I didnt recognized that were a little flimsy and sucked to play with).
