    In Response to Re: Next weeks promotion- 'Battle of the Mains'....coming soon! : Following on from this really. I think some of the best tournament ideas have been matched up against the bounty hunters which is a shame as there unlikely to be beat. Whereas both the current main and challenger on Tuesday is pretty bad as well as the Wednesday tournaments virtually being a mirror of each other.  I do think the majority of MTT's should be bounty hunters as they are by far the most popular but regardless of results I think it would be good to see either the 6k Escalator, 4k deepstack or 4k run poker to replace either the Monday, Friday or Saturday BH's to add some variety.  Also it would be nice to see either the timed tournament or the cash game to perhaps replace one of the nightly 9pm bounty hunters or the 10.30pm speed bounty hunters.

    Turbo Tuesday is the nuts!!!!!! More tournaments should be like that. And i know im not the only person to think that

    A few further points.

    With the Esculator being s "speed down" mtt (blind levels get slower) will sky be looking into trialing a "speed up" mtt, obviously the complete opposite structure.


    Love the dealer stealing format although £33 is out of my br atm, so that will be sat dependant for me to support it. 



    The mini, maybe not the place for it, but since its been mentioned, wasn;t the mini always supposed to be the exact same as the main for 10% of the price? I wasn't around when it changed, but it seems like everything bar wednessday is now just a £5 bounty hunter. I mean i love bounty hunters, but some variation on the minis would be nice. The 10% buy in main was fun, although if sky want to go with a different approch that would be great. 



    1 final thing. We seen a 3 max mtt, will we see more of these, or even the possibility of 4 max mtts. And can we have non-HU shuffle mtts (HU Shootout would be fun)  

    I've gone way off topic but hope all this feedback is taken on board.

    No offence to you Donald but that would be a horrible idea imo, the whole speed down thing is good because there should be more and mroe play as the game progresses and gets to the business end. With the reverse, it would be a nitfest at the start, then a crapshoot at the end and we've already got plenty of MTTs on Sky that are already like that ;)

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. Just to say, regarding the match up of events, if a format gets 'beat' by another it doesn't mean it will disappear forever. Also, related to the previousl point, it's difficult to mix up all the combinations against each other. Especially in a week! Should be interesting to see which ones are the most popular and to get additional feedback from when you've people have them. In the meantime, keep the feedback coming. Thank you

    I've played speed ups on other sites and they are fun. 

    Would also be a good balance for the deepstack lovers, and the turbo people like me.

    Will there be the same numer of sats for both?  At the moment there are loads for the BH but hardly any for the run.

    I am an early riser for work so the weekday Mains finish too late for me. The Timed Main and the Cash Main would be ideal on say Mondays and Wednesdays
