    Morning. The Guarantee on tonight's Iceman has been reduced to £5,000, where it will remain until further notice.

    Appreciate that you are only the messenger.

    Have to say that, if sky cannot get 200 players in a Main, then that Main needs to be changed

    5k for a main event is shameful, the most annoying part is that tuesday is my second favourite day to play poker and I really like the iceman

    It's a disappointment, yes, but if the players don't want to play it in sufficient numbers.......

    Not sure we can just point the finger at Sky Poker.
     
    It would have a bigger Guarantee if it were a BH, but then it'd be "oh, Sky Poker only run Bounty Hunters" & that would be followed by "what, no Freezeouts?".
     
    It's a proper rock & hard place.

    Note, by the way, there is an £8,000 SUMNMIT at 9pm tonight.

    I agree Sky do a great job and you cant blame them for reducing a guarantee if numbers arent met. I Just wish we could meet the numbers !

    Starting tonight, the Tuesday Main Event is now (takes deep breath.....) Gold Rush, a £33 entry, £6,000 Guarantee, 10,0000 chip mega-stack Bounty Hunter with 7 minute blinds.

    Got that?

    The Mini, at 8.30, will follows the same logic, but will be £5.50 entry, & £2,000 Guarantee.

    *wonders if the person coming up with that name (Gold Rush) is also a fan of the TV show on Discovery which shares the same name :)*

    wow, that structure seems off... way too deep at the start/ too many blind levels followed by no where near enough imo

    I built a new structure as yes it was pretty ridiculous. It was from the old Turbo Tuesday. Hopeully the Gold Rush will be more popular!

    You don't get that kind of service at other sites eh? Granted their structures would probably be spot on in the first place but still...

    Not sure what the thoughts are on the mini, but would be good to have some of the later levels added to the main also included in the mini imo? from memory, turbo tuesday always got a bit too punty after the big jump from 800bb to 1200bb as average stacks are already getting v short by this point

    Fancy looking at the Friday megastack structure whilst you're tinkering under the tournament bonnet? :)

    Starts far too deep, ends far too shallow, and I know at least.....1 person.....that will back me up on this.
