Would obv watch all day errrrday.

Hopefully this happens!

great idea, these kinds of concepts is what will develop poker further!

gogo

personally id rather the field just be a smaller, more elite field. I'm not interested at all in seeing a beast run down some random fish, id only watch the elite vs elite matches.

if you hosted this on some random network i would download the skin just to watch, league sounds too good to be true

would defo watch, i think the league format would be best because you'd definitely get some great matches and it truly sees who the best is.

you won't have any problems getting railers if you manage to get isildur

Im not talking about random fish with the wildcard.

I just mean there are some top players out there playing $3/6 to $10/20 HU that havent yet built a roll to afford this sort of challenge at 50/100. A wildcard could give some really good 5/10 player a chance at the big time.

For instance imagine this challenge happened in like 2009 when jungleman was grinding $5/10 with a $40k roll.

Maybe we could find the next one!

bobby the bus one time

would watch

Wud be sick if stars Steve could get issi to play, otherwise I vote bastard

yeah, as long as they are a good 6max/hu 5/10+ player id be happy with that as well

I would watch

I like the League idea

this would be cool and i hope it happens, but you really have to have all the best players in the world playing in this to make that statement. ivey, PA, and durrrr are probably considered the best in the world from a public perspective, assuming 0 of them play this, the 'crown' really won't mean much.

i hope there is a way to get them to play

Could get in contact with Stars about this and have them promote it or something and then obv a sh*tload of people would watch.

should definitely be knockout or group, league would bore everyone to shreds and each individual match has very little significance and towards the end of the season when one guy is streaks ahead the matches not involving people at top become irrelevant. personally id go group as a knockout does feel a bit too much like a tournament (even though people saying its same as a no blind increase sng r so wrong).

your idea just sounds like a tournament format with blinds that dont increase.

If you want a true cash game champion you should all play a cash game with a really high buyin 500k or whatever with the option to rebuy(s) (set capped rebuy max limit/max rebuys)

- game goes til there is one winner.
- players may opt to not rebuy when they bust, conceding a loss.
- players may only quit with $0 or All of the money.

With this format the championship could start with a few tables of the cash game. Eventually narrowing down to one table.... then down to a true Boss of a champion.

Edit: This would show presence of ability to play fullring, shorthanded and HU.
Additional Idea: Everyone could put up a separate 250k on the side (entry fee). The combine total of that 250k pool would be awarded to the winner.
