I'll second that....................that would make it a whole different show and give the less rolled players a chance to go toe to toe with the big boys on sky. Posted by johns0122
You are effectively free rolling with the 1k so playing within your limits doesnt come in to it. You dont enter the satellite for the chance to boost your bankroll its more of a chance to play with the big players in a different game with different thinking needed and if you win money its a bonus....obv you need some luck as you have just "one bullet"
as well as generating interest from the lower stakes players to get into such a game i think you'll find it easier to get more of the players actually rolled for that level up for the game ;-)
Interesting idea beaneh, but I'll ask an honest question. (Disclaimer: this is just my two pences worth!) If you were to win a tournament which gave you a buy-in into the Big Game, would you be happy enough using that £1,000 on a cash table with some of the regular players at this level? After all, if you're playing a tournament with, let's say a £10 buy-in, that £1,000 would go a long way towards boosting your bankroll and moving up the limits, if that's what you want to do. The other problem you have is that playing with just one buy-in means you're going to playing outside of your comfort zone and unable to pull up and fight back should things go sour. It's always important to be playing at the limit you're best rolled for, and while I totally understand it would be viewed as 'taking a shot', you might need more than one bullet to do it effectively Right, that's me playing devil's advocate/bankroll management advisor done.

A chance to spin up lots of monies and play with 'the bigger players' would be great fun and bank roll management wouldn't come into it as you've satellited into this and are free-rolling.
Also let me ask an honest question, why should any of the bigger players play in this game? Why would someone see a table of 5 of the bigger bankrolled, higher stakes players and think that's the game I want to play. 5/10 doesn't run as it is, and you had to specifically contact some people who don't really play on here anymore just to try and get the game running.
Where is the value in playing for a reg? especially when every hand he plays is shown on tv to all the people he could regularly play with at lower limits?

I cant see the big hitter regs complaining.
Great idea though, I love it.
