I know you would like to be authentic and all. But take a look how other successfull poker sites manage their main event satties. How about shoot out satellites? How about small rebuy satellites with fast structures? Keep your phase satellites but move the final sat to the sundays early before the Venom starts. Anyways I wish you the best of luck and I really hope that the next Venom isn't the one in July.

Christinepoker holy sh*t nice to meet you this is FadeTheSnap. I'm not sure I have even crossed your radar as you've ruined my hopes and dreams, but just had to say I don't think theres anyone whose caused me as much distress as you have one there. Your ability to shower me in huge pots late in tournaments is special, and I will truly enjoy the day I get my sweet, sweet revenge on you.
As for your post, couldn't agree more. It makes so much sense to make it the last Sunday of the month that people can prepare for. Keep the steps and even the once a week "final" step, but also have more direct sattys like the $300 that runs sunday morning.
Most importantly though drop the ego of wanting to say 1 million like the leader of the industry is able to do. You only make it less likely you'll get there if you piss off players and cant meet the impossibly high bar you create for yourself. Maybe work on legitimizing the brand so ppl outside of the core poker player demographic know you exist and trust you and build to 1 million. But constantly failing to meet customer expectations is maybe the worst way to grow a business.
