    heres my pennies worth.......    why doesnt sky run some type of sitngo sat for entry  into the 22quid deepstack...  a little like a DYM 6 RUNNERS 3 GET SEATS  and sky waviers the admin charge for this perticular sitngo ??.... also every final tablist gets a ticket to enter another deepstack (naturally deducted from prize pool) ....  i`ve only read 1st page of this thread ....

    If sky waivers the registration fees then whats the point in them doing it? they wont get anything out of it... I dont think FT should give tickets to other deepstacks either, if you make final table ATM then your GTD to almost double your buyin anyway, 

     I dont see why this needs to be so complicated, why cant it be a regular trny like all the rest?

    Yes  mackem ... I agree about 'sit n go' satellite's, I wish they would do some  but they must put on the charge or tax, it is a business after all.
    I'm not brown-nosing but the Team at Sky are doing their best and are being very generous in the way they are listening to their customer and player !!
    More satellite's please Sky, MTT's and "Sit n Go'  !!!!!

    Great game tonight... by far the most enjoyable tournament on the site... great chat and great play...

    Its always tempting to play the 9pm main event due to the cash prize at the end of it... but for all round poker play this deep stack it should attract more players... and if it does it should really take off... heres hoping...!

    Delighted for you Phil - well done.

    And it ran for alnost 4 hours before anyone abused anyone else in the Chat Box. I thought we'd get all the way without Chat abuse tonight, such a great bunch of players, but maybe that was too optimistic.

    And well done Rich, to Final, & Cash, off the back of a bad run of Form/luck/variance. Joking aside, he's a top, top, bloke, & I adore him. He's right up there with the photographer.

     The £500 freeroll is ok but me for one would prefer payouts to end at 40 places or even 30. This would give higher cash payouts for everyone. Getting £2 is fine, but higher payouts across the board for say the top 30, I think everyone would consider fair and would give the tournament greater importance.  You run a good site, but giving a freeroll greater importance can only help your image and give the winners fatter pockets. In case your wondering I've yet to make the top 30/or 40 for that matter.

    Amazing!

    Many people requested a deep stack tournament like this so SKY intoduce it (they should be given credit for listening to us), but now instead of supporting the tournament they moan and say they're playing it because it is not yet popular enough! Toys out of prams come to mind.

    Give it a chance! If the palyers who said they would not play actually played in it then we wouldnt have the so called problem they complain about. I agree with Tikay on this matter,the structure should not be changed.

    Personally I dont mind, I am happy to win the money if they dont play and I cant see any difference if the bubble is 5th or 6th, final table or not, thats poker.

    This is the best tournament on Sky Poker.

    FACT!

    The payout structure is fine and, as Tikay has pointed out on several occasions, more players will cash when more players enter.

    Spread the word, people.  Let's increase those starting fields...
