    OK Lou and John, the sit-n-go idea really sucks!!

    Lets get back to the tournaments and **** the SNG's. No one liked the SNG's about 6 months ago either.


    Or at least have some 200 point SNG's. That is the main problem now, no one wants to waste their time with a 6 or 12 point SNG

    I think to make them more popular, the most important feature is to allow you to buy in with your bonus points, and have that count towards the rollover.

    you especially need to up the buyins for the heads up sng's.

    i mean, it only takes one person to sit with you.

    i've played several today and wish you had progressively higher buyins..

    Common guys. Why is spending 1 hr to win 25 points a waste of time?

    how do they need more? the most i've seen running at once today was 1 h/u and 1 6-man.

    might have been 2 six mans at once, but that's it.

    it isn't like their full and you can't get in..i just don't see why you couldn't have like, a 5/10/25/50/100 heads up table sitting there. especially with hu's, you can just sit there for a bit b/c you only need 1 person to play.

    i have no idea what you're talking about, but it doesn't seem like it'd be hard to add in a few more higher levels for 2 and 6 man sng's.

    if the buyin was higher, they would either not rake as many points. unless they made it really ridiculous. like if 6 point entry is 1 point rake, would a 66 point entry have 11 points of rake? if not then they dont get as much back.

    a: how would you know?

    b: pokerstars/fulltilt sure didn't think so, with the biggest weekly tournaments being on sundays.

    shit, 'sundays daytime' is probably the best time to have 'em.

    second time i've read this. details pls. big thread on people whining about that game not getting graded, then lou went in and started crediting points, but several people in that thread never got credited. that mean somehow that game got left open and those people tried to bet it late?

    Time to get rid of the SNG's.


    But like i said before, you would have more success if you offered 200 buy ins I think.


    I did play 4 of the heads up today and went 3-1, but it was seriously a waste of time

    Having some higher buy-ins might help, but I think most people would rather watch football on Sunday.

    sit n go is a good idea, but YES the buy in sucks, i dont want to buy in for 6 or 12 points, sit n go tourneys
    with a buy in of 50 points and upwards would be great,also SBR take a look at the BOUNTY sit n gos at Poker Stars they are a great fun,
