Bad idea: Replace penalty kicks with a 10 man NLHE tourney.

Yeah I'm the same way. It's very exciting and drama filled and super tense, so it's got that going for it.

But at the end of the day it's a really silly way to decide the winner of a game. Just way too high variance and not enough like the regular sport.

All right, let us gogogo. Won't post during the shoot outs.

Yea but what else should they do? Imagine a golden goal system with no penalties ever.. Would be pretty hilarious to see after 3 hours tho.

The knockout round is the playoffs. PK's are super variance on-top of regular single elimination variance.

To be honest, If they tie after 120 ****ing minutes, they deserve the variance
