Orford gets to work with a bevvy of hot female analysts whilst Tikay is 'relocated' to another night.
Looks pretty official that. Wonder if I can get it through...?
Do we really need to answer that ??????
I like the look of it, nice 1. For the ME on sky these look like better value and better structured with clock increase
Obviously a bit steep for a lot of players to BI outright but no doubt the sats will be having a good old bashing
I cannot deal with the feedback tonight, but I will tomorrow.
Please DO NOT assume that there is not something for everyone. This is only the start, there is more news to follow.
Looks good to me! longer blinds but what are the starting stacks please?
I gotta go now, tonight's Tourneys await, so I'll check & confirm back to you tomorrow.
I like the structure changes and can see why this will be popular however I reckon it will upset more than it will delight.
Success will come from the figures Sky analyse I suppose, if it is a success financially for Sky then they were always going to do it so who are we to complain.
If Sky were trying to attract better players and improve the site through TSP then having a far better main event schedule was a must. Although some of the gtds seem a bit small considering the stake has been doubled on most?
Imo it'll be fine for the lower limit players as long as they have a load of micro mtts and a 9pm and 10pm gtd too. Don't forget Sattelites...It makes it even more exciting if you sat through into a bigger buy-in tournament too.
