    Hi all newbie poster here but yes I would like to see more of these longer tournaments.

    This week I've played two of the £22 deepstacks but this level of buy in does push my bankroll a little.

    Yes should be a 7 o'clock regular mainly £5.50 but inc a £3.30 to get more people involved
    Leave Monday tho cos that's Spartacus night :)

    Yh i agree with every 1, 5.50 seems a resonable price for every 1 and include the 3.30 1s to try and get more players involved

    Long live the deep stacks, Ozzie

    Like the idea of £5 or even a £3.30 deep stack.Prefer 8pm start because getting back from work in time.

    Yes, please.
    Slight preference for £10 but a mixture would be good.

    Yes...! A great tourn which will attract a higher standard of poker and allows for new players to learn the game in a proper fashion...! Great idea...!

    I really like the idea of varying the buy in, as the cheaper £3 buy in would be more manageable for me.  Hopefully all the regular deepstack players would support the cheaper version as it would be great to play with these guys for a manageable fee. Here's hoping its a starter...

    AS WELL AS HAVING DEEPIES COULD WE HAVE 10 SEATER... 10 MIN BLINDS 2/3K STARTERS..... SORRY OR AM I JUST BEING GREEDY!!!;-)

    I think for this to work, it has to:

    - Start at 7pm

    - Be affordable but it must be same price everyday just for continuity (5.50 or 11 is fine for me, I'd be more inclined to say 5.50 because it is affordable to a greater % of players and the 8.15pm players may also play it)

    - Be up in the highlighted area of the MTT where people can see it

    - Be called something along the lines of 'Community Deepstack' or continue by naming the ones on other days after popular community contributors/presenters

    - Possibly needs a decent starting gurantee to attract players (£400?)

    - 10 steater tables - much more fun

    - Possibly have a league (Doesn't have to be run by Sky)

    YES  £5.50 would be okay, but I do like the idea of a £3.30 tournament as it's more in keeping with my bankroll!  If a few of the regular players entered, that would be even better.  As far as starting time goes, around 7.30 would be ideal, I think.

    In Response to Re: More 10 Seater, Affordable, Deepies? Yes, or No?:
    We are really cooking now. And SpongeDoug - yeah, if it were £3, I'd still happily playb it. Maybe rotate it nightly - Monday £5, Tuesday £3, Wednesday £10, Thursday £5, Friday £10, da de da. If I can get a more more "ayes", I'll send this to Sky Bernie tonight - he da man.

    Agree good idea if can be sub £5 buy in as the lower price tourneys are becoming scarce, maybe replace the russian roulette with low buy in deepies ......

    YES

    Throw in some under £5 too to get a wider range of players interested in this format.

    Has to be better than the faster blind structured televised tournies.

    Yes yes yes! Deep-stacks are the only MTT I'm interested in. My bankroll can (currently) stand £11 but £5.50 is more comfortablist :-)

    i like the idea of a regular deepie at the same time every day .  agree with previous posts ,there should be some for people with smaller bankrolls  and for those who are learning how to play them. maybe 2 of these a week should have a buyin of 3.30.love and peace, pillow.

    Hey guys,

    i have passed this on to our poker guys to look at.

    Yes please, preferably £5 ones and maybe ones starting later - I have never been able to play the deepstacks because of the usual £20-plus buy in and their early start times!
