    Call it Sleepstack but change the "e's" for the amount.......

    eg £3 deepstack advertised as Sl£3pstack
        £5 deepstackadvertised as Sl£5pstack

    well if the play the presenters agree to play every night could either be:-

    "PTP Deepstack"

    or named after whoever the PTP is that night

    "Orford's Deepstack"

    "Michelle's Deepstack" (lol)

    "Trev's Deepstack"

    etc

    Two little probs there......

    1) PTP does not take place at Weekends, so there'd be a problem naming the Saturday & Sunday jobbies.

    2) If one is named "The Orford" I';m gonna throw a strop. A serious strop.

    Don't even THINK about it, right?

    The Thursday Thunder-Stack

    The Friday Fun-stack

    The Saturday Super-stack

    The Sunday Sleeper.



    Quite generic but pretty smooth lol

    Well done TK and Bernie.. Alan is raring at the bit to get into these.

    Thank you Sky Bernie and TK, I will be happy to support them :)
  • edited August 2009

    Sounds great! I will play these most nights. Will the prize pools be GTD to encourage more entries?

  • edited August 2009

    Thank Bernie, not me.

    I was just lobbying as a Player. I'm as pleased as you guys, trust me.

    We hear all this "Sky only do fast Tourneys" stuff, but the balance is getting better, & I'm delighted.

    But now comes the clever bit - to make sure they get worthwhile fields!

    The Mick Jenn, Spartacus & Tikay Deepies already do, but we do need to pull together to make these work.

    ok here goes,

    For one of the £3 DS, Orfords Cheap Seats or Orfords Deep Cheap seats. I think it quite suits him ;)

    Oh, I will - you can be sure of that!

    At present, I'm on a 6 week Live Show shift pattern which means I gotta work the next 3 or 4 Saturdays, & currently, I do "In-Poker", on location, every Sunday. But I'll play Saturdays & Sundays whenever the Diary permits. Guaranteed.

    I've just spoken to Sky-Bernie.

    Two extra bits of Info,.........one good, one not so good.

    Not so good. The "Tourney Titles" can only be a MAXIMUM of 18 characters long, including spaces. (So "Rich Orford Deepstack" ( = 4+1+6+1+9=21) is TOO LONG). So, a maximum of 18 Characters, including spaces, please.

    Good.

    The "Sky Super Seven" will start NEXT WEEK!

    Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday are already set up (Spartacus, Mick Jenn & tikay respectively), so the new Tourneys will start from Thursday (20th August) of next week.

    The Reg Fees will be £10 + £1, £5 + £0.50, & £3 + £0.30.

    So that's it, we are up & running.

    Happy days.

    Hi Greg,

    Hope you are well.

    As far as I am aware, the Prize Pools will NOT be Guaranteed, & personally, I hope they are not.

    If players want these Tourneys, then a Guarantee is not necessary. We are playing to have a little fun, that's the idea.

    If Sky Poker have to put up a Guarantee, & players decide not to support the Tourney, Sky Poker will reduce, or drop, the Guarantee. They'd have to, it would make no sense to subsidise Tourney Overlays most nights, & so they would end up pulling the Tourneys, simply because they were forking out the Overlay. And then we'd lose "our" Tourneys.......

    Without a Guarantee, they have absolutely no excuse not to offer up these Tourneys. Which were what we wanted, & as far as I recall, nobody said they needed to be Guaranteed.

    If Sky Poker were owned by me......(lol, gawd help you all) I'd let these Tourneys "float" for a few weeks, & see how they go, before making any radical changes. Once it gets to late September, & darker nights, I reckon they will get very good fields.

    Have a great weekend down there in sunny Folkestone.

    Orfords Cheapstack = 18 characters for the £3

    Sky Comm Deepstack = 18 characters for the £5

    Michelles Bigstack = 18 characters for the £10

    :o)

    deltas dilemma....sounds gd 2 me lol
  • edited August 2009


                re earlier tourney naming entry & keeping in mind the character limit i've come up with this

    the main title would be the   N.P.T. then each week you could name them after different types of players for example

          1st week    £10  DaveyZZ NPT  /  £3  JIMBO31 NPT  /   £3  Mr m bro NPT   ETC...

           N.P.T Stands for New Poker Tourney's

           dtw
