    i think that tikay needs a permanent bounty on his head, say, £50, or dantb10 deepstack entry, for example

    +1 to the gtd

    +1 for the gtd
    AND +1 for Greg's idea

     well it was just over 300 runners so £1500 guaranteed

     would be right !

    Sounds reasonable to me, and as the tourny is call take on tk also agree it would be good to have some sort of bounty on his head,maybe free entry to his tk sleepstack??

    Good idea about the bounty on Tikay's head and guarantee, really enjoyed Friday's game.

    The only way to get this through though is to consistently support this great touney :)

    Great idea for tourney and bounty

  • edited June 2010


    Any game with blinds wider than 10 mins makes for a good game......Tikay ask the suits for a once a month 15 min blind tour

    +1  rover

    Hi guys,

    Only just spotted this, sorry.

    I'd like to explain this, but first up, thank you for all the lovely comments about the Structure of the Tourney. I designed it myself, & I'm very pleased with how it plays out.

    And that's the whole thing, they sort of said to me "make a wish, design it yourself, any buy-in, any structure, just go ahead & do what you think is best".

    So I did. I thought a fiver was about right to get things going, & I am 100% happy with the structure. It will NOT be removed from the Schedule, it is now a permanent fixture for the foreseeable future, at least as long as it gets a tidy amount of runners.

    I have asked for permission NOT to play it on three Fridays - two whilst I am in Vegas, & one on the Friday before Swansea SPT, as I need to be down there on the Friday in order to do an early start & a very long day on the Saturday. It is still to be decided if the Tourney will run on those three Friday's, but it almost certainly will, with a Guest "Host" on each occasion.

    The Guarantee? Well that one is awkard, because they said to me, in effect, "make a wish, design your perfect Tourney". And as, personally, I do not believe in Guaranteed Prize Pools, they do nobody any good in the long run imo, I did not seek a Guarantee, nor will I.

    But here's the thing. The targeted number of runners was between 100 & 150, so if I HAD sought a Guarantee, it would have been about £500. In fact, it attracted 427, & 302, so who needs a £500 Guarantee, it's meaningless & worthless?

    The nature of the Take-on-tikay" Tourney will change radically soon, too. Watch this space for more details. ;)

    I'm also discussing with the Suits whether a re-branded version of T-o-T could stand being run on an additional night in the week, maybe Monday, or Tuesday.

    Personally, I think it's great that "the £5 guys" get the chance to play a seriously good structure, & I'm very proud of this Tourney, in every respect.

    You may not be aware of this, but I work very hard under the radar to attract runners to this Tourney, via FB, Twitter, etc. Because it's mine, & I want it to work.

    Now we have to innovate & improve.

    However, while my name is on it, I have no wish to make it "Guaranteed", simply because I don't believe in Guarantees. Sorry!

    I insist on guarantees, John Lewis are the best.  You usually get 5 year ones with electrical equipment.

    ty tk for your reply ,

    but can you please explain why it would not improve

    its easy to raise up a gurantee as runners go up and

    why you dont believe in guarantees in mtts .

    ty for taking the time in advance .
