BEING MAINLY AN MTT PLAYER I WAS WONDERING IF SKY COULD POSSIBLY INTRODUCE 9/10 SEATERS FOR SOME MTTS.. I DO APPRECIATE THAT IT TAKES MORE TIME, BUT IT COULD BE AN IDEA FOR THE BOUNTY HUNTERS... TO START WITH...WITH LESS SHOVEFESTS POSSIBLY OCCURING? JUST AN IDEA AS I PERSONALLY MUCH PREFER THIS STYLE... AND IMO 10 SEATERS ARE SLIGHTLY MORE SKILFUL... ;-)

One of the good things about 6-seaters is that you have to play marginal hands. It's how these marginal hands are played which probably determines the long-term winners.
I've played plenty of 10 seat MTTs and find them boringly predictable. It seems that almost every hand you're up against a big pocket pair or big slick, in which case your 9-10 suited is probably unplayable. Everyone plays the same way: wait for your big pair then be willing to bet your tournament on it. If you do this in a 6-seater, you could well be blinded out; not so in a 10-seater where you see twice as many hands for your money.
Stick with 6-seaters I say.
This is something that ive been after for a while.
My thinking is that, when you go live you generally play on 9/10 seater tables.
When at the spukt this year a lot of players hadnt had any live experience and that this idea would help them to change thier game to suit that format.
I would definiatly attend a tourny on that basis, as TK says that would be proper poker.
It would have to be on a weekend with a good structure and start time, £5 0r £10 to start.
