    Think you should have the tourney €50 + €5 and 20 min blinds all the way, especially as the starting stack is only 5k and it's your only tourney of the week.

    Also have an early bird chip of 500 or even 1000 to get people there in time & the tourney started on time.

    Just my opinion but I deffo would be more inclined to play with this format.


    :D

    I'll definitly suggest it to Jason, maybe a few weeks down the line we can increase it but as for now i think €30 would suite a lot more players pockets. Thanks for the feed back and hope you'll turn up anyway :)

    Yeah, i will still play.

    Think about 20 min blinds all the way & the early bird chip to help get the game started on time. From experience i know this makes for a better game.

    IMHO you definately need an early Bird chip to get the players in their seats so that the game starts on time. Otherwise you will be delaying the start time waiting for sufficient players to turn up............any regular players will then start turning up later & later.:eek: :eek:

    All feedback taken on board and much appreciated guys, as you all can understand the world is built on trial and error so the early bird is definitly going to be considered for the following week ;)

    We had 19 runners for the tournament tonight with €570 in the prize pool & paid top four.

    Great cash game after (€1/€2 & Live €5 NL) and only finshed there at 6am.

    Hope to get more runners next week but it was a very fun night indeed.
