Cash Games/Chouette Tournament

In Response To: Cash Games/Chouette Tournament (jdg)

Everyone in a Chouette has their own cube and you play "table stakes" meaning that the player cannot win more than the size of the opponent's stack in the current game. Table Stakes play becomes just a bit like match play due to factors such as not getting full value for gammons, dead cubes, etc.

The problem with chouette tournament format is the possibility of collusion, and the fact that if you put 4 fish at a table with 2 pros, and the fish run their cubes up to 64, you wind up with 3 backrupt fish and some random surviving fish with a huge stack and the disciplined pros with a small stack.

Chouette events can be fun however.
