I find these great fun! Keep em coming. One problem though- played in one at 17:05, it was meant to be a 30 min comp but it lasted an hour... ended up to my benefit but thats not really the point, the people knocked out in the extra 30 mins could feel a bit hard done by.. Posted by MRNICK
Apologies for that, MrN, I think Sky Poker were on Double Time......
Seriously, yes, I gather there was a bit of a glitch with this one - teething probs - but it won't re-occur.
Played 6 of these last night, just to see what they are like. Great fun was my conclusion and I can see them being popular with lower BR MTT players, less variance perhaps. I managed to cash in 2 and very close in another 2, so a slight loss. I will play them again for sure.
Further to everyone else's comments can I just add my view that although sceptical after 1st one i played (busto'd out obv!) since then I have played 6 of these and cashed in them all, although one was for a 40p loss!!
Excellent tourny's
Any chance of getting some shootout tournaments set up Mr K??

All in good time, Bladey, it's like a production line of new ideas at the moment, there is so much new stuff lined up.
On the Blinds & Prize Structure tab sorting by Payout sorts as a string so payouts would be shown as
player1250£0.62player2375£0.93player3587.50£1.46player4650£1.63player54025£10.06player64025£10.07player73800£9.51player83825£9.57player93875£9.68player103925£9.82 If you instead sort the Blinds & Prize Structure tab by Chips it sorts correctly

9th £253 + 96 League Points8th £379.50 + 104 League Points7th £506 + 112 League Points6th £759 + 120 League Points5th £885.50 + 128 League Points4th £1012 + 136 League Points40th 24 League Points3rd £1328.25 + 144 League Points39th 24 League Points38th 24 League Points It can be fixed by a click of the header but it still bugs me.
I agree that these are great fun, but as one poster has already highlighted the lobby is a bit glitchy still. Twice I have failed to appear in the lobby at all, even though playing in the tourney. When I closed the lobby to try and re-open it from the 'my tables' tab I couldn't open it at all and had to go through the whole thing blind. I did cash, so not to my detriment, but it would have been good to follow the payout as it went.
Also, have religiously set my iphone timer at the start of each of these and there seems to be some variance in the 'exact' timings by +- 1 min.

Glad you are enjoying them!

However I've played a few on Sky now and think theya re great fun and are an excellent addition to the schedule, so nice one Sky
168 runners - after 15 mins - 40 something left. Carnage
Good fun tho!
Lobby sorting needs to be looked at.
