You can't reg after you make it in one.

And take your time stars, rather cancel it once and make it right.

[STIJAS]

SCOOP release please. I want to grind 24/24 the 6-max hyper turbo satty to 11$ ticket lol

Supersonic over 3X increase in GTD.

This tourney is gonna grow very quick and get huge. If they compliment it with the Hypersonic, Sunday night will be Hyper Night. Give those playing deep in other tourneys chance to add to multitable majors.

Stars did a great job with the GTDs.

The flight MTT should be a proper deepstack , like 5k chips, 20 minute blinds, starting at 25/50. And the 1st flight could end after 6 hours of play.
It could be a re-entry MTT, players advancing into flight 2 with the biggest stack from all the flights 1 they played.

i can definitely see drawbacks to this....

what if you lose all but a chip the last hand of day one? (or lose all but 3 bb, or whatever your personal "pretty meaningless stack" threshold is)

clearly you would prefer to have busted and be able to try again if you have few enough chips, can you email stars and have them "bust" you so you can try again?

[22riverrat22]

also its nice to see you guys got around to listing some guarantees that reflect the prize pools the mtts actually build, perhaps they will get more people excited to play them

now just add 24 $11 2k guarantees and repeat the guarantee adjustment after 6 months once you have an idea of how big they get

If anyone finishes a flight with <20bbs they should get a pop-up with the option of "binning" their chips (apart from the final flight obv)

Thats a pretty terrible solution, getting people to "bin" stacks without knowing if they'll even finish another day 1.

You should just take your biggest stack forward and get a nominal mincash for discarded stacks. This is what happens in live tournaments that allow the same sort of thing.
