Blockmesh, patches vs boundry

Hello, I have downloaded a tutorial that uses patches instead of boundry, to define boundry lines I guess, and I am trying to convert the patches to boundry (see picture). Why is the patches method working and my boundry method isn't? When I use my modified boundry method I also get defaultFaces and the sizes isn't equal.

What is the difference between the two methods and why is not my boundry method working?
