$100 tourney. Bracelet event of course. Could be called the Luckbox bracelet event

100k starting stack. 25/50 start. In 10 hands you’d go from 2000 Bbs to 100

Blinds up every time a hand ends. If your table breaks and you somehow only played 6 hands and you get moved to a fast table that played 15, oh well.

Would have to be online as breaking tables would slow it all down.

Please...Please...don't ever let this thread die. I haven't laughed this hard in a looooong time.

M&Ms event where everyone starts with a pack. All the colours have different values. You don't know the value of your starting stack until you unbag.
No breaks. If you get peckish, chow down on your small value candy.

What they need is less actual chips. They say in cash games, more chips are better for more action. But it takes too long in these tourneys to count down bets.

I have always said what this world needs is Live RUSH Tournaments. This is so much more possible nowadays with everyone having smartphones. You download the app at the start of the tourney and keep that running, it will vibrate and tell you which table and which seat you're at. You do your best Usain Bolt impersonation to get to the table, punching and kicking other players who are trying to rush to their own table out your way. You get to your table, peek at your cards, decide its crap so insta muck, hit the fold button on your app and it gives you your new seat assignment. You now need to run from table 2 to table 934 for the possibility of instafolding your 92o. Players are getting trampled to death in the melee and poker suddenly becomes a more credible sport on par with MMA and Ninja Warrior. I have patented this idea! In spirit of OP's post, it a hyper turbo, 500 stack, 25/50 starting blinds, just to minimise the collateral damage.

Why bother with an app when you can have drones attached to all the chairs that whisk you to your next table.

This should be a thing.

How about a $500 wsop tourney called"The Salty Seniors Event"
It will take place on the 2nd, just after they get their check

Everyone gets 10k in chips but every hand the dealer pulls out a card starting from 60 to 90. if he draws your age on the card he picks you must be allin the following hand.

I like it! Time to update my patent...


Although I'm wondering, what the hell is the tourney fee (rake) going to be to make that a profitable venture for the casino?


Actually talking of rake, RAKE tournaments! Tourneys where the dealers RAKE each pot, and its really just a competition to see if you can beat the rake or if the casino will eventually rake every T$ out the game and award themself the prize money! DNegs may explain to us why this is actually better.

How about a rotating chip stacks, just as the dealer chip/blinds move to the left every hand, chip stacks will do the same. Lol.

1000 person cap to enter
999 all get the same prize of 10million dollars each
the 1 person to lose is forced to die

would you enter this game? What is the best strategy to play this out? How long will it take? the structure would be 30k startnig stacks 2 hr levels 50 100 blinds to start
No breaks, it goes on until someone busts.

Penalties will instantly be enforced if you take longer than 20 seconds to make a decision. Mut be forced to VPIP 30% aswell.

I would watch this Black Mirror episode.

I’d play. I’d get 1 outed and die first for sure.

I think taking 19 seconds a hand and folding everytime you can would be the best way to play this out. someone is bond to make a mistake. Even getting it in with aces on an ace high flop would be bad i think. especially early stages

Can we sell ourselves at 1.8 markup?

UTG shoves every hand and everybody folds because nobody can call.

Would be great if there was a poker themed hotel in Vegas to beta-test these ideas.

Some of these ideas are genius...like Elon Musk genius!
