So everyone says they love deepstacks

Everyone loves a guarantee.

So Sky have put one on for you!

Starts at 7.30 with 72 mins of late reg.

Get involved, and as its a new tournie, can you spread the word too to any Sky poker regulars who may be interested in playing it.

If I was in the UK right now then I'd def add this one in alongside the main etc.

Thanks :)

    Dunno if this one will get it's own thread or not, but I'm a lot more excited about the £5.50 £1k GTD speed rebuy.

    Love the speed rebuys on here but they're usually tiny fields/small prizepool etc

    Back when I first started playing on Sky, we had a nightly £22 deepstack.

    I think it was only a £400GTD but it had been adjusted so that all FT was paid.  Got 20/25 runners, 30 on a good night.  

    People like SoLack, GregHogg, Penguin7, FlashFlush, Nutter5932, Madmoo were the regulars.  Tikay even donated when he had some spare time.

    It was a very loyal following and a great deal of fun. And I really, really started to learn the game there.

    So this version has a £22BI for a 1kGTD.  Lets get this to 50/60 runners a night and hopefully we can have a similar kind of vibe.  

    Will always add this one into my schedule when I'm online.

    This mtt was here when I first joined the site.

    It was soon dropped.

    It's been re-added on at least 2, maybe 3 occasions since then, and soon fallen away again.

    I give it a fortnight before the gntee is dropped, and a month b4 it's gone altogether.

    zzzzz, no1 wants it.

    And just seen that the £8k £55 BH main event has had the BI reduced but keeping the same guarantee!

    Ditto, bit worried about the rebuy period being too short it might not meet its gtee. In principle a great idea
    but I would like sky to remove the speed bh on tuesday night and have a speed rebuy instead, freshen up the offering and try something different. It would smash £2k imo at 8:30pm. 

    I think bounty hunters have pretty much reached their saturation point.

    There's a vocal minority on this forum always calling for more deepstacks, but the general player pool don't seem to share that enthusiasm. Whether you guys like it or not most players want Bounty Hunters or faster structured freezeouts.

    I'm pleased to see this tournament made the guarantee last night and I honestly hope it succeeds. But based on the disinterest in the many deepstacks that have come and gone in the past, including the 8-00pm main event,  I too can't help feeling the initial enthusiasm will soon wane. I predict this one will either see a big cut in the guarantee or disappear off the schedule during October.

    It's a similar story with Omaha tournaments.

    Well I'm not that vocal, but I'm delighted to see this tournament in the schedule.

    Good time slot too, nicely placed before the main event.

    Back from Malta so first chance to add this into the playing schedule.

    Alongside the Super Roller, the mini Primo and the 9pm £55BH this is generally gonna be a slow paced night.

    Looking forward to it.

    Anyone know how many runners this got last night?

    50 is the goal of course, but with the Super Roller it would be nice to break 70 or 80!
