    hey Lou this is kind of off topic but will Vividseats be brought back as a method of going pro again? I will need to go pro for this tournament and wanted to know if any more options will be added any time soon.

    also can we get a list of what place gets paid what in the daily tourneys 1-20?

    If we had an old bodog account but have never used bovada is that ok? Does it matter if there is any money in the account?

    Just a suggestion to make it easier on some people. I recommend you run the tournaments 7 days a week, but limit it to 5 entries a week. That way if someone missed a day they have a chance to catch up.

    good idea, Dalamar..another idea is to allow 5 tournies per week and you can play all 5 the same day if need be.

    great setup. 10 weeks a lot better IMO, last one lasted to long. if we are only paying 3 spots real cash we need to have a better championship structure IMO.

    the prize orders make no sense 20k points is way better than 1k cash. 20k poker points is was better than 7k points

    $1363 + added value because you cannot purchase points so for some they have more value that retail because you will have the points to work with.

    That $1363 estimate is based on using all your points on $15 pizza cards. Not really a good way to do it.

    Thanks a lot SBR and Bovada! I have a Bodog account that I have used to go pro with SBR, I assume that is good enough.

    Thanks SBR - looks fantastic as usual. I really like how the payouts for 25th etc. are far better than in the old series. Personally I prefer it that way - spread out a bit more, rewards people better for all their months of hard work even if they go out early in the $.

    Only thing that's a bit odd is the disparity between 11th and 10th. I think I would much rather get 11th than 10th - yes it's a ton of rollover but still for 12.5k more points? Seems very worth it to me.

    Anyway, I'm sure you have your reasons, and the series as a whole looks great. Hopefully I can put together a similar run as I did for the one which just finished!

    Yeah that was going to be my next level of suggestion. I can play all 5 while watching NFL on Sundays.
