    My most recent posts as to the Bounty Hunter Champion Main Event Guarantees were exactly correct. See the very first Post by me at the top of Page 11. They also exactly reflect the facts & the Promo Page, HERE

    In real life, I love you to bits Tony, despite your ample gerthytude, obduracytude, Welshytude, dogwithaboneytude (pun alert) & oldageytude, but I'm over & out on this sort of pantomime "oh yes you did" "oh no you didn't".  If I misled you, or posted incorrectly, I'm sorry. I don't believe I did, & if I did, does it really matter? 

    After you Claude.
     
    No no, after YOU Gertrude.

    Why did the DAILY £10,000 G'tee BH Champion £110 High Roller @ 1945 struggle?

    Why did the DAILY £10,000 G'tee BH Champion £33 Main Event @ 2000 struggle?

    With the ability to look through our crystal clear rear view mirror, I think they cannibalized each other.
     
    They used to have all week to qualify players for the £110 Sunday Major, & it did not run parallel to a £33 Main Event.

    Now, during BH Champion, & ONLY during BH Champion, there is a daily £110 & a DAILY £33 15 minutes apart.  Too close, & not enough time to qualify enough players.

    The Bounty Hunter champion Promo runs until Sunday of next week (29th Jan).

    Over & out.

     Sorry Tikay, I just didnt realise that there were seperate guarantees for each of the two tournaments, and that the guarantees were applicable for different days.

    What I want know is:  Who rattled Haysie's cage?

    I think the 745 needed to attract new players on a regular basis and the BH champ prize pool did not do this.  If there was a couple of grand up top each week then numbers may have grown.

    On the question of starting stacks, I would like to ask Sky_James this:  Why do some all-in sats have a 1,000 starting stack and others a 2,000 starting stack?  Huh?  Is it:
    a) So there is more play in the higher buy-in all-in sats?
    b) To confuse Haysie even more?
    c) To generate action on a thread in the forum so that Tikay can delight everyone by replying with his highly tuned wit and repartee?

    personally Paul I think the revised enrty template may have been used in determining the chances of players playing an all in sat with a higher starting stack

    Not played much on Sky before but really enjoying it so far! MTT schedule is good fun - sorry if this has been covered to death, but any idea what nightly mains will be after BH promotion has ended?

    Hi Angmar,

    Glad you are enjoying it on Sky Poker.

    I imagine the post BH Champion Main Event schedule will be announced towards the end of this week.
     
    Largely speaking - but not entirely - I think it will reflect the schedule before that Promo commenced.

    The £10,000 Sky High Bounty Hunter has been removed for the time being.

    On Tuesdays, a £110, £8,000 Guaranteed Summit will run.
  • edited January 2017

    The 9pm slot will be a £55 entry, £2,500 Guarantee Sheriff every night EXCEPT Tuesday, when Summit will run instead of Sheriff.
  • edited January 2017

    At 9.30pm every night, that popular £1,000 Guaranteed £3.30 Bounty Hunter Rebuy will run, now labelled "Reload Rebuy Bounty Hunter".

    A quick peruse suggests there are 6 or 7 today, including, of course, the three DTD Freezeouts.

    There are still F/rolls in the lobby for the HR BH? 

    When will the megastacks be back?


  • edited January 2017
    I've been away from Sky for a longgg time, and last time I was here the mains were just...

    33bh
    Turbo tuesday
    Wednesday rebuy
    33bh
    33bh
    33bh
    Roller

    What do all of these names mean just so I know which ones I'd most like to play (without having to check the lobby for the main each day), is there a list/page anywhere that actually explains the names?

    I'm guessing Iceman is a freezout? Marksman, Predator, Hitman, Avenger, Sharpshooter, no idea what they mean, all just different names for a BH? Is the Sunday Major just a renamed Roller?

    Ty in advance

    The HR BH Freerolls have gone now, several people already contacted me about those. They are just default templates, the Lobby is re-populated for the coming week every Monday morning, but last week's are usually there until that is completed.

    I have no idea as to "Megastacks".

    Probably best just to check the Lobby each day, Paul.

    Yes, the Sunday Major used to be called the Super Roller.

    Sigh ok, fair enough.

    I meant is the Sunday Major actually the exact same comp (stack/blinds etc) as the Roller but just under a new name.

    I'm guessing the Tuesday main doesn't go into the lobby until Tuesday, and same for all mains?

    Sorry, why "sigh" Paul?

    I honestly don't know if the Sunday Major & the Super Roller have/had identical structures. The Lobby for the Sunday Major is HERE so that may assist you.
     
    Most Main Events go in the Lobby "on the day".

    Don't mind me, it's just me being lazy, I was hoping someone (more likely a reg who grinds all the mains week in week out) could just say...

    Monday = rebuy
    Tuesday = BH
    Wednesday = deepstack
    Thursday = BH
    Friday = BH
    Saturday = Turbo
    Sunday = Roller

    or similar. As it happens Bates has messaged me with that now so I'm all sorted. 

    Thanks for your help. I've just been playing DYMs for a few weeks to kick off the rust from my poker game and now fancy getting back into MTTs properly

    I find the sats a bit boring, could we make them bounty hunters too?
