    A bounty tournament where you win betpoints for every person you knock out. Or, just for knocking out a select few, even.

    I'm interested in playing on SBR. I'm not sure exactly how it works because I'm new here. I play on multiple sites Networks for real money, but I'm interested to see how the SBR Poker works.

    Ryder cup of ages.....the over 40 year olds vs the under 40 year olds.

    Old crew vs new crew.....someting like pre 2008 join dates vs after 2008 join dates.

    SBR Pros vs non pros.

    HU Sitngos

    Omaha 8 or better ring games.

    Whatever sbr decides try and have something going on weekends.

    After half of July with no SBR poker, it would be nice to have our SBR tournaments return.

    well, seeing how there supposedly will be more traffic due to the rollover rules and whatnot, the cash games should be better.

    PLO is obviously obvious.

    HU SNGs would be awesome as previously stated.

    basically, SBR does a great job and people tend to forget (pros, specifically) that these tournaments are FREE. i understand that you're going to have to rollover any tourney wins now which is obviously a fair rule. people whine all the time about whatever and are literally allowed to freeroll on a daily basis.

    there should probably be like, 100 point buyin (with an overlay ) weekly or something also.

    Heads up tournaments where you have to commit to starting during a certain 30 minute time frame.

    7:30-800 pm bracket or something similiar. 1hr - 2hr time frame.

    Mac software please! I didn't even get to play in the WSOP freeroll b/c I moved and didn't have a pc handy to play on. If Mac software isn't a priority, I guess I should really look into some of the other Mac alternatives. I did one of them and had no luck.

    Maybe some kind of promotion for 'Milestone' hands. I think SBR's up to around 500,000 hands dealt or something. Maybe on the 750,000th hand and millionth hand have a special promotion where everyone at the table gets a bunch of points and the winner of the hand gets some reward. Or every increment of 100,000 or something, I don't know, Full Tilt did something like this.

    Bad beat jackpot another solid idea. Love the heads-up bracket idea too.

    A bad beat jackpot would never get past 5 hands here.

    Depends on how strong a hand needs to be beaten. Standard Aces-full-of-jacks is probably a good idea, maybe Aces full of anything. At the casino where I play here in Tampa FL, you have to have quad 10's or stronger and lose.

    Possibly a Shootout

    NOTE: New so not sure what type of tournaments you've already had or know much about SBR Poker in general. Will try it once it's up and running though.

    Possibly a weekly tournament where the top positions who accumulate points to play off in a final 64 man tournament heads up (1on1)?
    Just an idea, or a bounty on the people who have made it in the Ryder Cup on knocking them out.

    Another suggestion, possibly team Poker ? where you can create your own team of 3 on a weekly basis and winner of the winning team with most points get top prize?

    Shoot out tournaments would be so quick to run too. 100 person. 10 table down to one table. However, have all the 9, 8, 7 etc place finishers place against each other for smaller prizes. ie table winners play for 1,000 points and the first eliminated players playoff for 100 points. Each player would gets to play two ring games in an hour time slot.
