Bring the real Velocity back!

Tonight I decided to play my favourite tournament, the 10pm £1k Velocity. Imagine my surprise when I saw it has been turned into a rebuy! I hate rebuys. The velocity was so much fun, now it has a guarantee of £500 quid, a different start time and rebuys :(

Just for the record sky, velocity used to get 220-250 runners every night. Tonight we had 89.

Obv I was first out...

    Is there really no more 1k vel at 10pm???

    Havent looked, but if thats the case, then its krazy.

    Ive defended rebuys, coz they add choice, but to take away good tournys like the velocity and replace them with rebuys, thats a different kettle of guppie/guppie's.

    There is too many of them and they have replaced good tournaments that were very popular. For example the speed tournaments at 7 45 and 8 45 used to get loads of runners but now they have been turned into re buys also. It's a joke imo. Sky should have introduced rebuys along with the popular tournaments. Hopefully they will realise their mistake and re introduce them (esp the velocity)
