Sunday Showdown sng's
As the focus is on getting as many players into the Sunday biggie tourney could Sky please introduce sng satelittes into it? It could be done with a 6 seater £20 + £2 sng where the winner gains entry and the runner up gets their £20 back. It could even be stretched to 10 seater £10 + £1 sng tables where the winner gains entry. If its set up in the sng area rather than mtt area so players can register whenever without a starting time restriction it may well generate more attempts. What do you reckon?

That said the actual semi could be a good event as long as it gets a lot of runners...for instance 1/5 gaining entry from say 40 runners you have a far better shot than a 1/6.
Phil, thanks for your post - Le'ts give it a go and see if there is any take up of your idea - There are a couple of S&G's in the lobby now, £22 to enter, first wins a seat in the £2k DS, with the second getting £22 back.
I've also not charged any fees to help start these off...
best of luck,
Bernie
Just took it down for my entry into the £110 deepie, many thanks for bringing this up Phil
And I'll probably play you in some next week I imagine.
Hope you get your seat in the next one you play sir
Whahoo!
I have this Sunday off, so count me in.
I'll sign up for a few of these SNG Satellitey jobbies right away.
Sky really are providing for everyone now - Speed tourney, Tv tourney, deepstacks of various buyins. Pretty much everyone catered for!
I have Regged for one of these Deepstack SNG's (tikay1, my "personal" Account), so we just need 5 more & we are up & running.
***I may have entered a couple of these lately and have a record of 2 wins in 2 WOOOOOOO****
I've been joined by Phik12UK. Just need 4 more now.
I could see those being much more popular.
Personally I think it would be great to have them for the televised mtts too.
I did Register for a few of these last night, between 5pm & 11pm, but none of them actually started. There were never more than 2 players Registered, which was a bit of a shame, as everyone seemed to think they are a good idea, & Bernie responded.
I'm not Online tonight, but I'll be back on Thursday & Friday, & will "sit in" again, hopefully we can get these started.
We wanted the Tourney, we wanted the SNG Satellites, so it's up to us now, the players, to make it work.
