edited March 2011 in Poker Chat

Bounty Hunters are incredibly popular on Sky Poker, deep analysis of player stats have proven this conclusively.

It is now possible to have Rebuy Bounty Hunters, & these will start being added to the Tournament Schedule over the next few days. If they prove popular, more & a wider variety will be added. If they don't, they won't......

    Should be fun!

    10% rake please, these are unlikely to work if it's 15% on buy-in and rebuys.

    Moral of story = better value to play £25 freeze out BH than £2.30 rebuy (which will end up costing you the same).

    No Comment*. Being ignored by Sky Poker as it is so no point in saying anything TBH. 

    Deep stacks might be next! 

    *apart from...the popularity of B/H's may have something to do with the increase in all the other rebuy tournaments.

     Hi Max, I think the popularity of bounty hunters may have something to do with the fact that they are often the only flopwit tournament availiable in the fluppin lobby!  innit!

    lol @ this1.

    From the sublime to the ridiculous.

    At least if you manage to min cash in a BH now you should get enough back to cover your buy in (singular)

    nice these sound like fun :)

    like lots have said, can you look at putting the rake on the lower level BHs to 10pc, in line with every poker room.

    I'm making a run for the top spot of the TSP MTT league during the last couple of weeks, and I really really hate playing the 5.75BHs cos of the totally ridiculous rake.  it just doesn't make sense at all.  if your gonna charge 15pc on low level BHs, then surely charge 15pc on all other tournies too?

    The order of the B/H player list has gone totaly random(numbers on the left). Any reason for this?

    Just click "Sort".

    I expect the software changes have messed with your pre-set default settings.

    I already clicked sort.. (in order of chip count)
    If I click sort, to the placement number, the chip count goes random.
    It used to be sorted in order of chip count and placement at the same time.
    Hope this can get sorted.. (its the same with BH and Freeze out)

    I can't get that to happen for me - if I click "RANK", it sorts correctly, or at least, it does for me.

    I just restarted sky poker, and its still the same.
    If I click "RANK", rank sorts in order, but the chip count goes random.
    If I click "CHIPS" the rank goes random.
    It used to be in order of both at the same time.

    OK guys, I can't explain that, I have no explanation, & it's fine for me.

    Adam has had a hectic 24 hours, with all the overnight changes & stuff, & so is not currently available, but I'll send this Thread to him, & he'll comment in due course.

    Hopefully, you'll be able to live with it for 24 hours.

    Apologies.
