Early Antes:
There is really no reason why all (or the majority) tournaments shouldnt have antes from the start. Obviously live we dont have this because having all these tiny chips would be slly, but online this is not the case. Is there actually a good argument against not doing this? I'd even argue the 10/20, 15/30, 25/50 levels should be 20% antes for every tournament.. it gives everyone a reason to play pots.
KO hour:
Day 2 of this KO week and i really love it. I usually am all for the regular red freezout that has a big gtd and brings all the fish. But you can only have so many of those and all of these KO tourneys seem fun and are attracting big fields.
So i am suggesting 1 or 2, "Knockout Hours" that consist of some KO tourneys of diff variants in the $11-$109 BI range. Mainly turbos but maybe one solid reg speed. One KO Hour starting around the 265 KO and one sometime after the B162 giving a real nice reason for people to reg through the nightly.. Id make them a diff color than the typical reds.
Running it more than once:
Why dont we do this? I think fish would love the idea of having more sweats and more chances to stay alive. it also helps lower variance a bit. Another cool addition to this idea is that i thought we can use the Spin and Go spinner that would determine whether we run it once, twice, or three times. Can easily market this as some big Run It Red tourey
Featured Table:
K this is a long shot but maybe someone can get an idea from it. I was thinking that just like live, some tournaments can use a featured table. It becomes a diff color... there is some online team pro commenting on a stream and whole cards of everyone are delayed. Again something stars can market or even use in their poker school thing
k thats all i got, any of these sounds appealing (was just brainstorming a bit)

I like these ideas, especially the last one, so cool!

We've decided to go with the Omania structure in the Weekly PLO and Weekly PLO H/L, both $82 and $215. Given the 5,000 starting chips, we're going with 12-minute levels, and we'll see how that plays out for a while. I can tell you that the switch makes the structure much deeper. For example, after three hours... before: 500/1,000... now: 300/600. Enjoy, and let me know what you think after playing this coming weekend.
