I cannot deal with the feedback tonight, but I will tomorrow. Please DO NOT assume that there is not something for everyone. This is only the start, there is more news to follow. Posted by Tikay10
IF this is the case then i APOLOGISE in advance for my previous post,xxx
Interesting changes, not sure a 10pm £11 quid event makes up for the doubling in entry fees for the main events, pretty much excludes me from main events other than satellite attempts.
I like the structure changes and can see why this will be popular however I reckon it will upset more than it will delight.
Success will come from the figures Sky analyse I suppose, if it is a success financially for Sky then they were always going to do it so who are we to complain.
I really like the look of this although imo, the sats for these need to start running the night before in order to give more people a chance of playing them.
I fully take on board that there will be something for everyone's bankroll but a lot of people enjoy playing in the nightly ME so there will no doubt be a fair few who can't buy straight in (myself included). The reason I think the sats should start the night before is purely because the majority are working through the day & probably can't come home to play the sats straight away (& possibly then go on to play the ME).
If Sky were trying to attract better players and improve the site through TSP then having a far better main event schedule was a must. Although some of the gtds seem a bit small considering the stake has been doubled on most?
Imo it'll be fine for the lower limit players as long as they have a load of micro mtts and a 9pm and 10pm gtd too. Don't forget Sattelites...It makes it even more exciting if you sat through into a bigger buy-in tournament too.

i agree. Like the monday night bounty hunter, They put the tounrament in lobby sunday night, but sats into it sunday day or night would be good.
All well and good if you can affford it. Perhaps there should be extra low level satellites so that it opens the game up for every one. Could be very exciting. And should definitely be televised , this will bring in the numbers.
i have no probs with the changes that have been made; just a thought....does it not seem that they have all been made for the benefit of the bigger bankrolled player? as tikay has said that more changes are coming and i do hope that the smaller bankrolled players will benefit!

Never been a main event player so it looks good for the people who can afford to play them.Waiting with for rest of schedule to see how it looks and if everyone has been catered for.
8pm start for this blind structure is clearly better. My comments about the awful TV coverage compared to the past stand. There used to be a nightly show, in a decent studio, with graphics that didn't look like a 6th form sturdent's IT project. That's why I started playing on SKY, and I'm sure I am not alone.
Nice to see that the overwhelming response to make the main events a 9pm start were listened to. The rest is cool by me. Shame we can't have a decent TV show any more. Posted by Eyeman
What overwhelming response? it used to be 9pm but the client base ASKED for it to be moved to 8 and blind levels extended? Was there another vote somwhere?
