After about 1am it's always like that Paul, there are the odd Freezout guaranteeds that are worth playing though.

Hi Paul,

In terms of the old line up, none of the regular GTD Freezeouts have been removed AFAIK. Some extra GTD Freezeouts were offered for a while as a trial but they didn't prove popular enough, so were taken down. The additional tournaments put in are the ones which historically have been popular with customers around these times.

That said, we are always looking for ways to get more people on site at this time. If you can think of a format or two (along with a rough time where you think there's an opportunity), I am more than happy to pass it upstairs for you.

Cheers,
Dave.

 would be nice to see some mtt step tournies and stt step games 

 think they will go down really well 

 

 would also like to see more games that allow you to play in live tournies insteed of just have the spt and vagas  ones.. maybe add wpt and a couple others 

 also how about running some games to allow players to play in the cash game  chance to be on tv playing would be ok and think people would have a go for it

Well I'm pretty sure the cash game will have all been filmed by now and I doubt they'll be doing another one for probably 12 months minimum so that ship has sailed for now.

Also I doubt they have the rights/permission to sell (give satellites for) EPT, WPT, UKIPT, GUKPT etc etc events. Plus, even though it generates rake, it's a bit counter productive to promote people playing somewhere not affilliated with Sky.

Gimme a day to think on it Dave then check back on this thread and I'll post my ideas.

I guess from the STT Steps you mean something that (in effect) is similar to that DYM challenge 60p to £whatever that is run on the forum? I used to waste way too much time on another site which offered this structure and they were always popular, give the micro players a game that cost them (say) £1 to start and could leave them only a few wins away from bagging £1k+... In turn these may also help to reinvigorate the (non-DYM) STT games on the site? Plus can drag some of the higher-rollers across to the higher buy-ins when they know that some luckboxing micro-stakes players have fluked their way up the steps and made for a soft £500+ STT game!

In a similar vein, I'd quite like to see Sky bring in a 'shootout' tourny, combining STT/MTT, but accept I'm probably a minority that would want to play those... even if the software was capable of running them.
