    I'd like to see the ft all get paid as in 715 daily deepie.  I won't be forking out £110 next week if there are less than than thirty runners and therefore only top three get paid.

    You know what'll happen mate, catch 22, they'll change the structure and you'll win the first one.

    if they sort out a decent sat system then will get enough runners for the big torns. like the £55 ones on Friday's, why not have sats to the semi every hour or 2 so that people who get home from work l8 (like me!!!!) can play in the sats 5.45 i think is the last 1???

    Well Sky Poker is, & will, continue to listen to your views on this.

    I have to say, they asked my view, & I said that it was wrong to pay 5 or 6 Places if there are less than 30 Runners. 30 runners currently pays 5 or 6 Places, I forget which, but I think 5 or 6 places paid for 29 or less runners is very wrong, if offends every principle of Tourney Poker.

    This week, one player withdrew very late as he thought it would only pay three places. So It ended up with 29 players - just one short of 5 or 6 being paid!

    My view counts the same as yours, so air your views here, & trust me, the Suits are monitoring this Thread, & are ready to make any changes thought desirable.

    I prefer to tackle this problem the other way round. Let's build UP the amount of players, rather than adjust the payout structure for less players. That's positive action, rather than "well it it does not get many, let's pay more".

    We ALL get more once this Tourney builds to 40, 50, 60 & 70+ runners.

    So, more feedback needed, please.....

    Thanks Tikay.  Yeah above 30 def sounds sensible and a good compromise. It was just looking last Sunday at the tourney lobby and seeing places 4 and 5 got league points only.  Thanks for update.

    Yet the £22 7.15 daily deepie pays ft whatever the field.  I doubt I wd play everyday if thios changed back to top three where the field is below 30.  I agree that 10-15% is correct for most touneys, but when there is a combination of above average entry fee, deepstack format and low entry, with guarantee pay out, there is an argument that top 5/6 shd be paid.  However much I enjoy playing the deepies it is a bit of bummer where you play for three hours battling your way to the ft only to walk away with nothing.  Not sure my bankroll can sustain the daily £22 if this were to cjange.  Yes, do everything to encourage larger fields, but until we get there I think the top 6 payout should remain for the 7.15 daily and be implemented for the Sunday £110 entry jobbie.

    You voted overwhelmingly for a weekly Semi-Final to the Sunday Night Deepie.

    So Sky Poker have sorted it.

    Every Saturday, there wil be a Semi-Final, & there will be Daily Satellites priced at £2.40 & £4.80 into the weekly Semi-final on Saturday. They are in the Poker Lobby already.

    "Direct" Satellites will remain, too.

    As players, we've had a good day today, eh?

    Well good luck to you, too, especially as it was your idea!

    And if it all goes belly-up, you'll get the blame. ;)
