    say NO to the IPAD idea as sky take forever to send them to you, that is they do!!!!

    remember the problems 2 guys had last year regarding IPADS lol.

    BUY IN's ftw.

    Loving the priority freerolls... Cash is the way forward. although it would be nice to have other prizes to go for like tickets to see spurs :)

    Tourney buy-ins but preferably in the form of tokens rather than having to play on a specific date.

    Having said that I do like the idea of gadgets/tangible goods too as they're different from the norm.

    I like the idea of gadgets. A free iPad and i'd be on a massive buzz! Buy-ins would be good as well but would prefer tokens rather than a specific tournaments to give people choice/freedom.

    Maybe with gadets there could be different categories. Say Cat A and you select a gadget from that list, Cat B where you select again but maybe the gadgets on that list are of a lower value etc etc.

    Thats not a prize its punishment! They had a prize for a matchday prawn sarni up at OT for a manure game last season. Problem is it alienates non man utd fans who support other clubs.

    Cash. Because having some sort of system where you could buy merch or use it to get into bigger tournies would be good, but you could use the cash to do all of that anyway.

    As most of the above are different why not offer an option where the winner chooses the prize?

    I-pad, cash equivalent or Tourney vouchers, each winner can then choose what they would prefer.

    i love freerolls that offer prizes like ipads and lcd tvs as its a real treat for you when you win and something you can hold in your hand. I know you could argue that if you win cash you could go and buy one but its never the same and you prob dont bother buying it so its something you can say look what i won and is differnt from the norm. You play for cash generaly all the time anyways so its a nice change and id love to see this on sky.

    I was gonna say the same. Sure you can buy it with the money, but you never do, you end up just keeping it in your BR. It's nice to be able to say 'I won this from poker (for free :p)'

    Yeah I agree, for instance, I don't really want an xbox 360 cos I've got one, but I wouldn't mind an iPad. Definitely get a list going, so the top people who 'cash' choose from the expensive list and other people who 'cash' choose from the cheaper list

    I think there should be a balance tbf, cash, tourney entries and maybe a few gadget ones :)

    LOL!! I think the answer is in the question, I would like to win, although i have cashed a few times 38p 42p etc over the past three years i have never taken a freeroll down.

    Anyway i voted  Tourney buy-ins (Primo/SPT seats)

    Thanks for the comments so far folks - do keep them coming. I have an additional question for you to chat about too...

    Would you prefer the smaller GTD Freerolls (let's say anything under £250GTD) to be more 'top heavy'? Paying out 10% - or possibly even 5% - of the field but making the payouts a bit more substantial? You're still only looking at like £1-1.50 for a min-cash in the £50GTD, but does it make cash freerolls at that level more appealing?

    why cant you cut out 2 daily freerolls and add the value to an evening one. (yes i know everyone isint in of an evening) and then make it top10%. Much better imo, then a min cash would also be more

    Player's who think they have an edge at mtt's would like this.BUT seeing as most freeroll's are played by rec's & noob's I am totally against this.
    p.s. cash is king
