    Mab, they had sats for this every Sunday but no one ever played them.  One week I had to play 4 of them and win to get enough cash to play in the £110.  They had a semi on as well I think on a Sat that never got many runners.  I think that it is a good idea but I dont think it is Skys fault if no one plays them, they will take them off.

    I think that is a terrible thing to say, not everyone has a large bankroll, and just because a player doesnt have the money does not make him/her a fish, and by the same token, just because a player has the money does'nt mean he/she is good. Maybe some of the regulars in this tourny are worried about more competition, and before i get moaned at i dont include myself in the good player category so there!

    Of course there should be sats for it as sky offers sats for all it's other larger buy-in tournaments if i'm not mistaken.

    However maybe sky should change the structure for this sat. The normal 1 in 5 sat isn't going to work as some people won't pay £22+fee as this is the buy-in they are normally tryin to sat in to for £4.80 or whatever it is? Does that make sense?

    Make the sat structure 1 in 10, or infact prob 1 in 20 would suit the players wanting to sat better as the buy-in is roughly the same.

    Of course this will change when sky FINALLY introduce re-buy tounaments as when this is applied to sats of course the prizepool greatly increases.

    Hi Mark.
    I was looking for the quallies the other day and couldn't find them. Sky used to have them and no-one played in them to be fair.
    This tourney is a little lost, in my opinion. It was put in as it was requested and it's struggling to make the guarantee most weeks. The reason i think it's lost is that at 1 in 5, its £22 to get in. If you have £22 to invest i feel most will play the £22 D/S, with the top 6 getting paid, its good quality and there is a reasonable chance to get a return (even if a low return).
    If you make this 1 in 10, or 1 in 20 then i would think that actually the qualification will be really hard and then that would put people off.
    Re-buys may well be the answer (1 seat for every £110), or use a premium 8pm tourney and take £600 or so out of the prize pool and give, as part of the prize, 5 seats to the Sunday tournie (Maybe the new Double stack would be ideal for this). This would raise the profile of the sunday game and increase the numbers.

    I totally agree i dont have a bad bankroll but would like to see some higher numbers in this to make it more of a game for regulars not just a few who at least one seems to think he is superior to the rest of us which isnt true imo i play good standard high entry live tourneys on a regular basis so i for one resent the inuendo that because i choose to sat in rather than shell out the 110 in one hit doesnt make me a fish and the coments are laughable
