In Response to Re: Your Tournaments - Discussion Thread : Actually think the turnbo bounty hunters would be really popular - just look at the £33 super fast sky sports BH ) Posted by rancid
Yep, the biggest, most popular main event of the week.
That they decided to mess about with and slow down 2 weeks ago, presumably coz it was performing too well.
Re my earlier post think 3 get paid only tournaments work if 100 ruunners at 3.30 or 5.50 would give real buzz to final table plus hard luck or happy days stories to lower bankrolled players.
I would like to see :- Sats into it for £2-40 Tourney - £1.200 GTD Deepstack Buy In - £10 + £1 Day - Friday Time - 8pm Chips - 5000 Blinds - 12mins Posted by DTWBANDIT
I think the thing that Sky's lobby misses the most is just the basic freezeout tournament! There seem to be loads of BH's, satelites, timed tourneys, omaha etc etc.. but very free standard NLHE Freezeout. So my vote would be for...
8.30 - £10+£1 freezeout.
2000 chips,
10 minute blinds, with small blind increases at the start. I.E BB would go 20, 30, 50, 60, 80, 100
(If I was able to choose the GTD then somewhere in the region of 1k)
Ok then some great suggestions in so far, but there's still plenty of time to keep them coming. We'll keep this thread as is for a few days yet, I'll then put the suggestions into some sort of order and we can take it from there, then hopefully between us all we'll come up with the schedule

Like the idea of this, the old TSP classic tournament always used to be popular.
Also how about a tournament with a satelite style payment structure, buy in of £5, 1 in 5 get paid, 2k starting starting stack 7min blinds starting at 21.00

yeah more freezeout's please,way 2 many bounty hunters,
How about some sort of mix game? 1st hand NLHE, 2nd PLO, 3rd PLO8 and then back to NLHE (just like HORSE) It could run on the show days and some omaha hands could be shown on the show. They could also be different formats. For example: Sunday B/H - 3000 chips - 10mins blinds. Tuesday Turbo rebuy - 2000 chips - 7mins blinds - unlimited rebuys when 0 chips. Thursday Deep stack - 5000 chips - 12 or 15mins blinds. Not sure on buy-ins but maybe have a higher (£33+) and lower buy (£3.30) but then i don't want it to compete with the main and minis. Also not sure on start times but might be good to have the lower start anywhere between 19:30 - 20:30 and the higher between 21:00 - 22:00. What do you all think Jamie Posted by thomas87
Hi Thomas well thought out mate, and something new, however at the present moment therin lies the problem as the software as it is right nowdoesn't allow for it.
Just to keep it a little easier to read through all the suggestions, could you use this template please BUYIN.......... DAY............. TIME............ FORMAT........ CHIPS........... COMMENTS.... Posted by scouse_red

COMMENTS.... A mega stack freezeout early starting time, Sturcture would have a couple of early levels taken out, but the later ones added to give it a nice balance. Obviously Guarantee would have to be worked out with entry fee in mind. But hopefully with it being a mega stack and having a good structure, there would be a high level of interest, so a decent guarantee.2/3k Could be used to replace the mini on the night of the double stack (wednesday i believe).
