The only time I have ever played 11 handed was in one of those Super Mega Intergalactic Freeroll Rebuy Spectaculars where they were trying to squeeze 1200+ into one sitting. Maybe I just don't get out enough. Don't reckon I've ever seen an 11 handed game online.....

Crown starts the majority of their FR tournaments 11 handed.
Yet to plan in one that starts off ten handed

NZ as well, and some of the circuit casinos do it well.
But Crown is renowned for starting eleven handed, that's why I was shocked when Mike said that.

I thought he was a seasoned veteran!

I'm an online player, I've played a few tournies at Crown over the past 6 or 7 years and the only time I have seen 11 handed play was when there were space issuses, understandably. However there was only 294 runners last night, so its not like they are stretched for space. 2 or 3 extra tables and they can all be 10 handed.

Will they start the $10k event with 11?

Ha true, although its the first time I've heard of it in an Aussie Millions event.

Sats are very different.
