Now that only the top 10% get paid, one has to go that much deeper to hit the payouts. This means that it is even more important than before to conserve chips by playing slowly after the antes kick in. The bubble seems to burst now around the end of the 800/1600 level. Assume for ease of comparison that it bursts on the last hand of that level.
Here's something to think about:
A player at a table playing 5 hands per level, who started the 125/250 level on the button will have paid $6,875 in blinds and antes when the bubble bursts. A player at a table playing 8 hands per level who started the 125/250 level on the button will have paid more than DOUBLE that - a whopping $14,050 in blinds and antes when the bubble bursts.
Which table would you like to be at?
