New Poker Tournament for sky to try???

I have a idea for a new high stakes Poker tournament for maybe sky to try out and make maybe a once a month event like the sunday roller used to be.
It would be a BH capped at 36 players on 6 tables with a buy in of £220.
1 winner from each table progresses through to the FT.
The £200 is divided into £100 towards overall tournament winner, £50 towards table winner in semi, and £50 as a Bounty chip, so each player u KO u get awarded £50.
So, If you win your semi you are guaranteed £300 plus Bounty Prizes, then on the FT all 6 players will fight it out for a winner takes all £3600.
I really think this would go down well with sky regulars and is maybe worth a try once a monnth?
Views please guys???

    Would be good I agree.

    Something different.

    No idea if it's possible with the software though.

    Not a massive fan tbh i wouoldnt fancy paying 220 quid to play on a six max table where only one person progresses. 

    I think the idea of a monthly tourney is good though. I remember back to the good ol days where there was the 220 dblestack once a month, i think sky have really lost something special in that. Bringing back a regular monthly tourny that is maybe 330 or 550 to enter, very deep, with a very well balanced sattellite structure making it accessible to all bankrolls, would be a very exciting introduction to the tourney schedule.

    Why not mate?
    You have more chance of at least min cashig than the sunday roller, as if there is 50 in there then top 5 or 6 get paid and in this tourny i am suggesting 1/6 get 300 but any1 can win bountys at £50 per time, i love the idea but eh that might be just me and youngun lol
