    Funny how when people are waiting for the tables to balance / shuffle they say 'see you at the final table' or 'well played, good luck'. Nice, fund and friendly!

    Did anyone end up playing the same person twice at different stages?

    Be funny to say goodbye and end up with the same person!

    Not mu usual game but could be a decent filler tourny as it seemed full of action at a decent pace. I think if you added a rebuy element (one 2nd chance at 0 or unlimited for a set period of time i.e 10 min) you could be onto a winner. Stick a £5.50 Rebuy version on between 8-9 with a £1k G and it could become popular.. ;)

    Jesus, don't add rebuys! It's already mega swingy swongy without having rebuys to make the field even bigger

    i liked it,i dont play HU but found it intresting meeting different people playing different styles a different chipstack every time you moved meaning you had to adjust.this could be fun and surely more people will play HU because of this

    Deffo needs at least 1 rebuy for general play BUT it could be designed into a "Son Of Survivor" type "King Of The Hill" HU tourny...  and maybe a Winner Takes All version at Micro stakes.

    Definitely fun. I don't know why Sky don't set these type of tournies up but without the shuffle. Just a normal KO HU tourney like I've organised in the past.

    Would make my ones redundant but oh well, at least it would run smoother

    I love this format, if it's the same as rush on full tilt then you can insta fold and get moved - quality

    multi tabling them would be fun

    The breaks early on are fine, once it gets going it plays really well.

    The structure is slow enough to mean that a few 20 second breaks early doors doesn't really effect you at all.

    Blind increments look good throughout too! Maybe abit slow early, but fine.

    Can we have another go today? Couple of quid buy in maybe?

    V good addition imo!.

    Turbo 1? ;)
