its nailed on some sort of novelty tournament will be selected to win the comp anyway, sky is becoming terrible for tournaments i dont think it even appeals to the casual mainstream poker player anymore. Posted by hurst05
I'm not sure about this! There are 3 first prizes and 3 runner ups and the winning entries won't necessarily be implemented anyway, it's only ideas they're looking for so we shouldn't knock them for that! They only said that if they were tournies you would receive the first 5 free entries up to £100, so i reckon its in sky's interest to pick non entry fee ideas?
So, what exactly SHOULD the £220 structure be, in your opinion? It makes no sense to rubbish it unless you offer your view of the alternative. Hence this whole Competition...... " In my view, the structure should be as follows....... Posted by Tikay10
Tikay if youre listening , This 220 structure should ebe allocated 12 min blinds ,If you notice fulltilt and other sites thier main events whether it be 500 or 1000 runners ish they have these kind of tournaments set at either 12 or 15 minute blinds.
They did introduce the syncronised breaks also over the past year on all major sites too ,But I think your break system works fine.
If you have sattlites going on here then the general consensus is that the blinds are much less,thus ensuring quicker play,however its tough sometimes to win the sattllites as far down the game it can become somwhat of a lotto/bingo.
The 220 deepstack is one tourney I never quailifed for but I have played many of its sub sattlites.
Would be nice to hear from other people what they think the format would be on this 220 buy in,..I would have to say 12 mins is the best that can happen with this tourney. I think its currently 10 mins blind structure yes?
ps beanie preety much summed this thread up! ...still think 12 minutes for this type of tournament should stay as it is... 150 runners 18 paid... 175-250 runners =27 paid ,250-500=top 54 paid.500-1000= 80 places paid.
heck you know how is it on other sites sky ,good luck..

No, it is already 12 minutes, & always has been.
A full & extremely constructive debate about the structure is HERE & further constructive comment is welcome.
The Structure "problem" (assuming there is one) is not so much about the clock, as to the Blind Increments. These may well be revised soon, certainly there is a view shared by many that a 250-500 & a 500-1,000 would be welcomed by the more "serious" players.
