A little idea

Hi guys,

ive noticed much talk about sky trying to attract new customers so the site. I recently played a live home game with a couple of lads, and the game style ive never seen anything similar online. We started with 12000 chips. Blinds 25/50. So you start with 240 big blinds i think my maths was never that good. 

So kind of deepstacked in a sence but the blinds where more like a speed games, up every 5 or 10 mins i think (usually once round the table for a table of 6), so online terms around every 3 mins. The action although started a little more deepstacked was quite fast paced. It was also a very enjoyable game.

I was woundering if Sky would consider maybe bring a set up similar, im not sure how all the tournaments are set up but id like to see a fast paced deepstack style of game.

It would in turn attract fast paced players, while also accomodating the deepstacked players.

What you think?


Also i may have posted this in the wrong area not sure where im meant to post stuff like this

    Throw in a few re-buys and an add on and it might fit the "current business model"?

    Im against the re-buys, but well im sure a re-buy version could be made. That would be up to sky not me. Although i must note the game i was in was 1 re-buy per person for the first half hour, i was lucky enough never to need it.

    Very much +1 against re-buys

    Sky however seem keen to sprinkle a few "R"s around the lobby.

    For instance I used to enjoy the odd one minute roulette game for a bit of fun - that's totally out the window now judging by the current schedule.

    Yea i used to love them on the side of a bounty hunter while avoiding the first blind level rush of donks trying to double eachother up. Gave me something else to focus on apart from folding

    Once a week would be perfect, if it takes off increase it.
