I no this sounds daft peeps but wouldnt it just be great fun as wel as bonkers if you ask me!

say £2.20 entry 6 way soon as you get your hand Automatically all in so kinda like roullete but wel much more luck is needed would be a great laugh if i say so myself ,
could call it?

LuckyFest?

would go down a treat i think

Anyone with me on thinking this be a good hit?

    This aint gunna be profit making in the long run its just a bit of fun could have it run say once a night 7 oclock?
    and would be a great laugh to see 6 way all in and if u lose happy days only £2 lost there is no tournament of this kind on site bar the roullete but you have a choice in that matter this you would not, be great fun i may add

    even if it may only be a 20 second entry from yourself

    No Rebuy
    No Addon just a straight tourney

    winner takes all?

    This is already in place - play any low level game - shove with a premium get called by all sorts of c rap which invariably double or triple hits

    I'm not bitter .....  honest!

    how can u descibe it as a tourny? there no skill or anything involved might as well do a raffle just pay £2 pounds and pick a random username out of a hat !!would be about as much fun as going to a cliff richard concert imo!!

    I think that this would be popular...

    Even more so if you added Lower stakes options i.e 30p upwards..  (Nice way for people to try and spin your odd change into a higher buy in amount in quick time) 

    Agree with solar on rakes... so we may just see it.


    Would i play it?   Nope, not my cup of tea. Like the other comments, if im going to lose money id rather be to blame myself. If it does take off, I look forward to reading daily the Area 51 thread on it. :D

    This would work well as a satellite. 

    Say 50 ppl pay 1.10 each winner gets a primo seat.

    I'd play it.

    I would never play anything like this.

    As already mentioned there is zero skill in these types of games.

    I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have them setup for people who want to play daft things like this though.

    I'm sure this would be a great tourney structure for some (team TKP and team TPT) But for the more discerning poker player (team 51) we would prefer a slightly less variant Bad beat/ suckout structure.

    This tournament does already exist (sort of)

    ...Just reg for any late night £2.20 Forum SnG and you will see this play all the time.

    lots of poker sites have these games I think, whats the harm in them, you dont have to play and its good for a silly gamble of a few quid when you're in the mood

    sorry stokefc didnt mean to offend cliffs number 1 fan :) had time to think about this tourny and as dohhhhhhh says if they were as a quick sattelite before a major game ie...primo or one the rollers then maybe just maybe they would be a good idea
