Default here\'s another idea for Stars

make the warmup and second chance buyins the same as the million buyin that week.

this could/would apply to full tilt too, it just doesn't happen as often.

discuss.

Default Re: here\'s another idea for Stars

i dont exactly see it, because they need to appease their clientele of $5 tournament players that want to play a big sunday tournament, which in part drives large(r) money with rake and stuff.

i mean, it'd be pretty sweet for big tournament players, but there's a reason the $215 sunday million is always so jam-packed (satellite winners and people splurging on 25% of their roll). making every event this sunday say, $1k, loses on that.

I mean, you could argue that the $1k and the $500 only happen so often, but I would argue that every week you should offer SOMETHING that can attract the sat winners/donks/etc.

So, the only reasonable option which could accomodate all, and be reasonable, is to do what Nath is saying and then on top of that throw in a $215 side tournament that starts the same time as the $1k/$500

I think the warmup should always be 215, and the 2nd chance should be the buyin of the million.
