Hey, anyone else notice any common patterns in how people handle different tournament setups in online rummy? Last weekend I jumped into this big multi-table event that dragged on forever because it was structured around accumulating points over multiple rounds – I got knocked out early after a couple bad draws and felt kinda frustrated waiting around for the next phase. Makes me wonder if knockout styles are less stressful or if pool formats keep things more exciting for longer sessions. What's been your take on these?

Totally get the frustration with those long point-based tourneys. I've had way better luck sticking to quicker knockout ones where it's straight elimination – you either win the table or you're out, no hanging on with accumulating scores. Lately I've been playing a bunch on rummy holly, and their setup feels smoother for that style, with tables filling up fast and less downtime between games. Keeps the adrenaline going without feeling like a marathon, you know? Plus, I've noticed folks tend to play more aggressively early on, which mixes things up compared to drawn-out pools.
