RIP the £16.50. Hello 9 @ 9

in Poker Chat

The £15 + £1.50, £1,000 guaranteed BH at 9pm that was recently introduced on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays & Saturdays has not gone well, so has been taken to the Tournament boneyard & put to sleep. It was the kindest thing to do, nobody wants to see these things suffer.

In it's place at 9pm on Mon/Weds/Fri & Saturday will be a new tournament with the rather odd title of....

9 @ 9

    Time? 9pm

    Buy-in? £9

    Reg Fee? £0.90

    Blind levels 9 minutes.


    You get the drift, right?

    @Toffeeandy


    Not easy, not easy at all. Used branding consultants, marketing execs, all sorts.

    A gentleman who one assumes is incapable of looking at the MTT Lobby asked me if it was a Bounty Hunter. He shall of course remain nameless to spare his blushes. ( @Swog ).

    After extensive research, I came across it's official title....

    9 at 9 Bounty Hunter


    So yes, it's probably a BH.

    It's a shame whoever came up with the idea of the 7@7 didn't patent the idea, I would imagine they would be due literally thousands a few pennies for this blatant copy.

    I’d suggest 0.09p?

    Could start with the 1 at 1, and run right through to the 12 at 12 :)

    Might liven up the rather poor afternoon schedule.

    Could even mix it up-the 1 at 1, the £14.00 at 14:00 etc

    Blimey @Essexphil that's ambitious, this is Skypoker software we're talking about here, let's start with adding one, if the sight doesn't s**t itself maybe they can try another in a few months!

    I've got fond memories of the Daily Dollar on Full Tilt. I can't remember how much it cost to enter or the frequency

    Would be good to have a non-bounty in the £5.50-£11 range daily, with structure that runs about 4 hours to win.

    However, Late Reg is only SEVEN (7) levels. Sack the fool who came up with this.

    i liked the 16.50. shame to see it chopped rather than trying a different time (7.30pm perhaps) but good something different has taken it's place.

    @HUGHMANS


    Pretty spooky, huh?


    Prize Pool £999

    Can't wait for the conspiracy theorists to come up with their explanation.

    @Arrogant


    Looks to me that most of them already have (Predator, HitMan, Gold Rush, Marksman). Also Avenger has gone back up to £8,000.
