SUNDAY DEEPSTACK... WHATS HAPPENING SKY???????

Once again this tournament is not in the highlighted section , while the Monday deepstack is there already.

Due to work commitments I rarely get the chance to play it at this time of year, and look forward to a worthwhile field.

But I am starting to believe that Sky have a hidden agenda against this tourny, as they seem to want to hide it away week after week.

    You are missing my point,Jock. A tournament like this should be in the pink highlighted section at the top. Tomorrows £20 deepstack is already there.

    Yeah I just edited my last post.  it does seem a bit odd that the Monday Night one is in, but the Sunday isn't 

    I wish they'd swapped the fees around as well, lol.  My BR allows me to play the Monday night one but I don't have the time.  I have the time on Sunday but not the BR.  Grrrr

    There is a £12 satellite into it at 16.00 today, but I fear it will not get enough runners unless Sky make a bit of effort to promote it. I am in anyway !

    Hi Guys,

    This game is way out of my bankroll, but I have sent a PM off to Sky_Bernie, and others incase he isn't in today, to see if this can be highlighted for you.

    Thanks Bernie ! But well spotted ???? It happens every week !

    I find it very sad that Sky feel the need to promote Fridays Rebuy Open five days in advance. This is a tourny which has little support from the community, the majority do not want the rebuy format.

    Yet the Sunday deepie has a loyal following, which was growing well, but is never highlighted without one of us pointing it out.

    I must admit of all the tournaments I want to play The Sunday Night Deepie is the one,  more so even that the Primo.  

    I find that the primo, is still a little too much gamble at the early stages, whereas the deep stack allows you to be patient 

    Family Lunch today so can't try the satellite,  Does anyone know if they run Satellites for it during the week?

    I'm in the same position Delta,  We can't be the only ones, I'm going to try and drum up some interest for this over the next week,  see if we can get a decent turnout for the satellite

    There is a sat for this at 4pm TODAY

    There are three registered already. Delta and Jock, if you can make it today and enter, that will be 5, and enough to get the sat up and running.

    I reckon we will get 2 seats available (10 runners) if a few register early

    I am now in the satellite too.  I have tried getting this tournement going but it seems that since the WSOP a lot of former regulars have deserted it, or just forgotten how good it is.  One week the rounrmnet didn't run at all and then it ran with three runners!  I will only buy in direct if it gets up towards 20 runners again.  There was a lot of talk about people wanting a high buy in weekly tournement but they are not supporting this.  I know there are a lot of big tournies elsewhere on a Sunday, maybe another rethink is needed and this put on another noght.

    Lets be honest,

    How many players like myself who could stretch to the buy in if needed, look at the field, and just see there's no value.

    Remember Sky is a small site, and therefore a v high % of people who used to be in this i did not see the value in playing against.

    I'd much rather throw £22 at the thursday BH, which in comparison, is super weak
