Sit and Go 'Champ' Promotion - Thoughts
Firstly, I'd like to say that I think the promotion is great for sit and go/DYM players.
However, I do not believe it has been thought through (at all)
Firstly: Lower stakes sng grinders (any stakes up and including £5), haven't got a chance. I believe that there should be qualifying tiers. For example. The top 2 players from £33 games and above qualify. Top 2 from £11 games to £22 games. Top 2 from £5 games or less. Right now, just the highest stakes players will qualify, leaving out all the loyal smaller stakes players.
Secondly: Where's the leaderboard? How are the players to track who's ahead?

to me a 'champ' isn't someone who can, at the drop of the hat, grind out a sick amount of volume in less than a week.
on the surface there would seem to be so many better ways to establish who the 'champ' is but don't really blame sky for rewarding the high volume higher stakes players. probably could have just ran it as a loyalty reward rather than crowning of a 'champ' type promo because its so unlikely the best player will be the one on top at the end of this.
