Is the community interested in doing a heads up challenge on the format as the fa cup ie names in the hat say 128 runners and they are pulled out so ie razorkev v tk and so on.

Players start with 4000 chips 5 min blinds winners go thro to next round and so on until we reach the final and declare heads up champion.

I would appreciate ur feedback and maybe the sky bods can make this happen , i think it would be a fun and different torn for all of us

    Really good idea! Im so poor heads up, but the chance for a claim to fame is always welcome! I'm in as long as buy in is £20 and under.
    Wud it all happen like an MTT wud? or do u mean over a period of time, ie round 1 1 week , rnd 2 2nd week etc?

    HOPE TO GET OVER 75 POSTS THEN I WILL 4 WARD IT TO SKY, I SUGGESTED THIS IN THE SUGGESTIONS COLUMN ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO SAY MAYBE ITS NOT FEASIBLE ,

    I THINK THE COST SHOULD BE 8.00 + 80P DOES THAT SOUND FAIR ?

    I think it either needs to be free, or a nominal buy in like 10p to give everyone the opportunity to enter.

    Make it a fun tourny more than anything.

    If its so cheap ppl wnt bother.

    N also if its every saturday night for example for so long, even I go out at least once every other sat!

    Must be flexible, or all in 1 night, probli be 2 hard to organise.

    Ur alright getting the semi on a sat night n its the works doo or summat like that.

    Gr8 idea, short sharp format - without it being stupidly fast, all in 1 night!

    Min 2 quid buy in i rekon!

    DOHH

    I'm interested but agree that there needs to be at least a small buy-in.

    If Sky were kind enuf to make it a £250 freeroll for example, and we capped the number of entrants (first come first served to say 128)  then, a buy in would not be necessary... and it would be all about the fun and winning.

    Just an idea, i'm happy to pay a buy in of up to £11 quid personally, but im just thinking about some others who would not be able to be involved. This would be a community comp, so i would like all to be involved that wanted to be.

    it would have to be done in a night id say because if it was weekly with 128 runners it would take 6 weeks and people are not going to commit to that i think

    why dont we organize our own. say 16 runners, do a random draw for the first round, whoever youre paired up with you both play a sitngo when youre both online, winner moves onto the next round, you use the winnings from the sitngo you won to pay for the next round. There wouldnt be a big prize pool but it would be for fun(and bragging rights) to be forum HU champion. If it was popular im sure Sky would run a bigger one.

    I think sky need to introduce an MTT HU game, other sites have them and they are very popular, we have the 4 way HU STT's but as an MTT I think will go down really well on sky
