    Two  £22 tournaments on a Monday and Tuesday night.  Both start at the same time,    award 1 point for the winner,  100 points for 100th  etc.....      Take the 3 lowest scores (from the possible 4 )and add them together,  the 6 lowest scores then play a final table on the Wednesday.

    £50 guaranteed Mixed Game Mashup Round up, round up, new game in Town :) . . . so this is how it goes . . . In the Mix we have HOLDEM (NL)+ OMAHA HI (pot limit) + Omaha HI-LO (pot Limit) you start with 3000 chips with 10 min blinds.  Starting with Holdem the game will change every 20 min (every 2 blind changes) This game will hopefully introduce you to the less popular games out there and enhance your overall poker skills. Additional details; Buy In                             = £5.50 (£5 + 50p) Approximate run time = 3 hr Start Time                      = 7:30 pm (if it makes the guarantee im sure it could go on every day or every other day) Blind structure as follows . .  . 1 10.00 / 20.00 10 2 15.00 / 30.00 10 3 20.00 / 40.00 10 4 30.00 / 60.00 10 5 40.00 / 80.00 10 6 50.00 / 100.00 10 7 75.00 / 150.00 10 8 100.00 / 200.00 10 9 150.00 / 300.00 10 10 200.00 / 400.00 10 11 300.00 / 600.00 10 12 400.00 / 800.00 10 Also the First place winner will receive a Sky Poker T-Shirt and a Mug signed by Tikay.....:)

    A mixed game would be great but this is how I'd have it - starting stack: 4000 / blinds: 10 mins / buy-in: various from £2.20 / time: various - the format would change every orbit (or every 2nd orbit) and go NLH, PLO, NLH, PLO8, rinse and repeat. Call it Mixed Up Madness...or something else.

    Also (yes, I've suggested this elsewhere and it's not going to win any awards for innovation), a deepstack or doublestack PLO8 tournament in the evening (between 8-9) for £2.20 (same structure as the £2.20 NLH deepstacks).

    Step by Step

    Instaed of the surviver(playing each night), there should be a step structure tournament, which starts when 18 people have registered, with 9 people going through to the next level/step.  7 different steps, buy-in going up by double eg -

    Step 1 buyin £1 up to £64 for step 7 (add 10% in rake).

    Step 7 top 9 could all get £128 or 7-9 get £96, 4-6 get £128, 3rd gets £135, 2nd gets £145 and 1st gets £200.  (these figures could be changed).

    3000 chips 5 min blinds starts at 50-25.

    Monthly Payday

    Every last Weekend of the month there should be a £220 buyin, 20k Gtd tournament with 1st prize Gtd 10k.

    There should be satelites at 3 different levels daily.

    Level 1 £2, 1 in 5 to level 2.

    Level 2 £10, 1 in 5 to level 3.

    Level 3 £50, 1 in 4 to Monthly Payday.

    All sats should be good structure 3000 chips, 5 min blinds.  10% rake could be added to these levels.

    Monthly Payday should be 10k in chips with 15mins blinds.


    Think both these tournament would be good for high and low stakes players.

    Good thread to air our opinions on what tournaments we would like.

    Not so much a new tournament but a possible change of timing for it. The sats to the main events are all on when most hard working folk are still at work or just getting in. Why not run one of these satsa at 9pm for the following days play or have them as sat tokens that can be used when you want to play a main event or saved up to by into the bigger events such as the ukops or spt's

    Yep think that would be a good idea for the sats.  Should get tokens and use them when u wanted/time that suited.

    A better/different payout for the Step by Step tounament I suggested could be -

    1 - £180
    2 - £157
    3 - £140
    4 - £125
    5 - £120
    6 - £115
    7 - £110
    8 - £105
    9 - £100

    I dont play many MTT's at the moment, but Im hopefully going to start playing more soon, especially next year. The two formats of tournaments I suggested would be along the line of ones I personally would like to play. I know there is similar ones on others sites and they've seemed popular when I've played them.

    THIS! 

    It would be great to be able to have some big tourney entries banked so I can play them when it suits. I don't have the bank roll to buy into these direct & don't have the time to sat into them on the day either so this would be perfect.
