    If the Hu shuffles tournaments are gonig to become more regualr and made for all bankrolls, could do the first person to win 5 of theese, or if thats too easy 10.  Have to set some rules along the lines of there has to be at least 32 people in the tournament for it too count.

    it looks like theese tournaments will be popular, and it will give a new tournament a boost if people are taking part in this challenge.

    Congratulations shuv, you may be the last but you are not the least - you are a winner and will be put into the next Thews at Ten tournament!

    We're making a couple of small tweaks though - we think even 5 is a bit tough though so we are going to make it first to three als any size of field counts too.

    We'll be putting some more lower buy-in ones into the lobby soon.

    We will start a new thread with the challenge.

    I don't mean to be a moaner but that seems like a bit of a rubbish challenge if you want it to be won sometime this year. I'm gonna put my neck on the line (metaphorically) and say no-one will win 3 HU shuffle tournies back to back in the whole of 2012

    Unless I am misreading it, I think its the 1st to win 3 of these tournaments, not necessarily back to back games.

    Hi lambert - we lowered the bar from the 5 or 10 suggested and we expect some of the games we're adding will maybe only get 30 or runners too. We think its achievable and if it's not done, we'll offer conselation prizes.

    Remember, to win the Jackpot you have to win two events on the same night with usually 400-500 runners (which is a lot harder than this - hence the big prize on offer!). They said that would never be done and its been done twice!

    Also, moan number two and this will be my last moan lol... why is the prize given ALWAYS the £33 BH? Seems to always be that given away on 865 aswell. I'm not complaining too much cos obviously freebies are freebies, but I think sometimes I (and others) would rather go in one of the other MEs even if the buy-in is smaller.

    It's not even like BHs struggle to get runners so it seems like the prizes would be better use for other MEs

    Simply because it's a really popular event that people like.

    Also, we are giving away three seats now!
