Usually has less entrants than a home game;

Has a 6 max ko starting at the same time;

Overlays almost every single day;

People dont like the structure;

Alternative/Options :

6 max hyper mega stack in the 11$ region;

6 max or 8 max turbo mega stack with the "new structure".

Seriously though this is a great tournament not only for people that dont want to play more than several hours but also for regulars to add volume and play 6max. Replacing this with an $11 turbo or hyper turbo sounds pretty silly. Adjust to the structure and format or dont play?

You mean you and the other 30 entrants?

The tournament is wasting space honestly. It 100% should at least be moved, but yea, i play alot, but I've never once regged it.

I will replace.. it doesnt overlay as much as you think, its just not very good.

Realistic ideas that dont compete with other tournies i will take into consideration

Maybe turn it into a similar tournament as the new $22 6 max and put it at 9:30-10? West coasters need some love. You could also adjust the $11 & $5 at 10/11 to help build all 3.

It only overlays because grinders don't play it. There are other games around it that are just better. I mean, I don't think it's that big a deal to replace it if it can't even get 50 runners. There are very few games overlaying during the day, so replacing the ones that do is a no-brainer. And TD seems pretty good at placing games and knowing his player base, so when the change comes, I expect it to be for the better.

Personally, I think a $33/44/55 3/4/5k gtd turbo megastack would fit nicely in the 9-915 timeslot... Although, I did play the 6max myself on days that I played and enjoyed it.

Short term vs long term perspective.
