The 7:18pm £5.50 PLO8 B/H

I had another one of my bright ideas :smile:

Feel free to tell me where to go but...

Any reason why we cant have 1 rebuy if you bust your chips?

Might bump the prize pools up a little and may even allow for a slight guarantee increase in future.

I know it won't be to everyone's liking but it is hard to see a real downside.

Thoughts?

    Would get more league players playing this although it’s already the most popular choice.
    Not sure it would go down to well tbh. Maybe the 19:45 £3.30 or 20:40 £2.20 bh would be better games for a rebuy.
    I guess there should be 1 at least.

    The one good thing about PL08 is no rebuy option on games. Fair enough you get a bigger prize pool but with split pot payout it can take a while to knock players out. Would players be happy playing for longer when they have work at 6am or not having the bankroll to buy back in just to see other players do it then knock them out ?.

    Well played tonight @markycash in winning the 19:18 especially enjoyed the heads up waited 5 minutes for the break for the heads up battle and lasted one hand. Bit of a anticlimax :(

    Cheers @safc71 WP too!

    Yes, wasn't the longest heads up was it lol

    Just putting the idea out there about the 1 rebuy.

    I asked opinions at the table earlier and there were no objections as long as it was limited to 1.

    I can see the game may last slightly longer. Might be a better option in one of the earlier games?

    All academic unless Sky go for it obviously.

    I have no objection to the introduction of a rebuy, especially on Tuesday to Thursday as, since the introduction of the mid week league, I have been playing like an absolute imbecile.

    Hi Mark, good idea m8 , one used to run on Friday nights a few years back and did reasonably well considering the small plo8 player pool back then.
    I think it would do really well now.
    Well done last night , good to have you back.
