Setup for STEPS to millions should be simple

Same Set-up at PCA STEPS
*you could fix the numbers to maybe add a micro level at like $1 or $2 dollars thus making it 4 STEPs not 3.

STEP 1-- $7.50
1st: STEP 3
2nd: STEP 3
3rd: STEP 2
4th: T$1.50

STEP 2-- $27
1st: STEP 3
2nd: STEP 3
3rd: STEP 2
4th: STEP 2
5th: STEP 1

STEP 3-- $82
1st: Sunday Million
2nd: Sunday Million
3rd: STEP 3
4th: STEP 3
5th: STEP 2
6th: STEP 2
7th: STEP 1
8th: STEP 1
9th: STEP 1


1st seat won has to be used in millions.
Multiple seat wins are paid out in T$215
No direct buy-in for STEP 3.

During the $530 and $1050 create a special STEP 4.


These would be running non stop 24/7. Not sure why Stars wouldn't do it.

FMP

In thinking about this...since STEP 3 is the final level and the ultimate goal is to keep people in the STEPs and thus give them multiple shots to win a STEP 3 and go the millions this is the bet format.

these also should all be turbos

NO

TURBO AND REGULAR

You can't argue on one hand for creating a steps system because it gets more micro players in the million while at the same time fixing it so everyone has to play what format maximises your personal EV. There will be plenty of players on stars who have a dislike for turbos and wouldn't play them. Have regulars aswell so that you maximise the interest levels - and maximise the intake into the tournament. Which is the point.

right. doing a really gradual pay-structure like that keeps more people tied to the STEPS longer which I would assume = more rake for Stars.

Maybe Stars will consider starting such STEPS just for the $530 and $1040 Sunday tourneys first.
They seem reluctant to do it for something as small as a $215 buy-in event but the bigger ones might be more STEP-worthy in their eyes.
