No. Everyone's stack increases through the night due to chip ups. I'll ask again, has anyone ever heard of players complaining about chip ups at the final table?

nothing wrong with not liking something, but if all a person has to say is 'i dont like it' and cant even be bothered to suggest something that they consider to be an improvement, then I'm not tolerating it.
That's what leads to negative discussion and after the last few days I think it's fair to say we don't need any more of that.
Ahh, I see your point. I've certainly put across my point on not liking chip races, but I don't see why I've got to offer an improvement. Its criticism, yes, not constructive criticism, but its not like I'm leaving NPL. I love NPL. Its a rule that I'm learning to deal with.
I'm not smart enough to think of anything better, anyway

Re: Chip Ups & Final Table
It's the percentage increase i was referring to Aaron. getting afew black chips on top of a stack of 4k doesn't equate to the increase you can receive at the final table.

I know, and for 5000/10,000 blinds its vastly different. It could change the game substantially (see Garth's all in example). But, for me, that's just how the game goes.

Re: Chip Ups & Final Table
Only ever had 1 experience with a Chip Race and I lost $4k, but it's swings and roundabouts and I personally don't see any problem with them.
