    I want to see a Sunday tournament. I work Saturdays so I don't have a reason to give an opinion. I'm fine with how Sunday tournament was before.

    Love the high roller.. love tournaments where we start with more chips, really allows other styles of play to do well beyond aggressive players.

    Glad it's back

    I loved the rebuy-tourney on sunday as it was - but starting one hour earlier would be nice.

    High roller? If this counts towards yearly leaderboard, I can see bobbywaves sponsoring 5-6 players each week to play.

    And maybe dump the chips 'to the leader' who will have a better chance to beat sniper this way.

    If high roller counted towards leaderboard, I would be playing in it myself dipshit.

    I sponsor 5-6 players & throw away 500-600pts? I dump chips to beat Mr.Sniper, who didn't even play in last nights high roller?

    Wulfy is that you? Perhaps Rudy was onto something here, as you're both ignorant & have the same broke dikk characteristics.

    Chill, bobby. It's just a game. I figured if sniper cheats you would just get back at him. Fire with fire.

    That's why the high roller tournament is better. Same length of rounds but start with 2500, allows you to play poker instead of having to push/fold if you don't get a nice hand in the first 30-40 minutes.

    No coincidence I do MUUUUUCH better in the high roller tournament than the turbos.

    It hasn't been proven that Sniper cheated.

    And even if it was proven he cheated, I wouldn't stoop to that level.

    And back to no tournament this weekend either. 2 weeks in a row.

    What's the point of asking people what they want then get rid of them after 3 weeks.



    It's really simple. Make a 100+10 high roller for Saturday and a 20+2 rebuy on Sunday. That's all that needs to be done. No need to mess with it again, if there is a make up tournament in the future just run both.

    Not difficult to understand.

    I have to mostly agree with this. I hate being critical of SBR given everything they do in this regard is basically for free for the players, and we could very easily be given absolutely 0 instead. But that said, if you are going to take a survey about something and ask for suggestions and then the very thing you are asking for suggestions about, you choose to not even run at all - hard to not be frustrated as a player by that.

    I think the problem was that there wasn't good enough turnouts for the two weekend tourneys that ran a few weeks ago.
    however in my opinion, the critical mistake made was that they were scheduled at 11pm
    ET.

    this led to low turnouts (17 first week - 22 second week),
    this time slot does not serve the east coast, a lot of people have other plans on a saturday night, it does not serve the world players because it's like 4 or 5 or 6 am, and even on the west coast 8 pm saturday night is questionable.

    last year the saturday high roller was at 5pm ET and the sunday re-buy was at 6pm ET.
    both these time slots covered all the players, as it was early enough for the US east & west coast, and also covered the rest with a 10/11/12 pm slot.

    The first high roller wasn't too busy, but it also hadn't ran in months. The last one had 22 or 23 people in it. Pretty solid turnout for 110 buyin.

    That said, looks like they set the high roller back up and it starts at 10 again. Thanks SBR!

    How about a tourney where you turn off the rigging button. One that is fair to all players. This will fix the low turnaround on weekends. Most players have lost faith in the software hence they don't show up to play.

    So.. are we never going to get a tournament on Sunday again?

    You guys tested out the rebuy function 2 weeks ago (and it worked) yet still no rebuy tournament.

    Can we expect one by June or July? Again, I've never made a tournament but I'm assuming it probably takes less than 60 seconds to do. Click a few buttons, give it a name, choose what type, and BAM.

    Does SBR really care so little about poker that they can't even take a minute to do something they asked everyone about over a month ago?

    How about we go with a low roller and and a high roller for Saturday tourneys? We could keep the 100pt buy in, but add a 50 pt buy in. This would increase the turnout and offer another option.

    Also, I totally agree with most of you on here, we need to bring back the Sunday re-buy tourney. A lot of us really liked playing it and with added points, made for some decent payouts. We could increase the rebuys by 10 pts or so, making the payouts a bit sweeter.

    I really like the charity tournaments we do on occasion, how about we do one a month? We could rotate our favorite SBR Charities, ie.. Angelman Foundation, Doctor Without Borders, Red Cross, etc, and make a monthly donation of all entry points.
