How about this as an idea?

Next period should pretty much line up to 1/1.

Qualifying period = 9 weeks. 1/1 to 3/1.

Top 64 make the bracket. Make the tournament a H2H bracket.

Best 2 of 3 H2H tournaments. If stack starts at 1000, 10/20 blinds won't take too long to stack off. 2/3 shouldn't last more than an hour.

64-team bracket could be run off Thur, Fri, Sat 2x, Sun 2x.

Would be cool + fun. Something different, as long as software can be set up to play H2H.

I remember there used to be heads up sngs so it is possible, but very unlikely.

gEE, sam, that's a downer. But thanks for the info.

Go back to old structure of 600 for first.

If you can do world cup and just allow 4 players, why can't you just do it this way and allow 2 players? Once players win automatically input the players and such for the next round. That being said I'd like 2k because it would actually lead to better and real poker, for a while, which I know scares some people here.

I think Sammy may have commented before looking into it. They do 4 on WC, so just adjust it to 2 players. What software costs 6 figures and you can't have heads up? Make 32 private heads up sitngoes with passwords, or have WC rounds with max 2 players and passwords. Or 32 private tourneys with 2 players given passwords.

There is no way this isn't possible. I'd even be down for 3/5, but it might not "flow" with the tournament but would be more fun and less variance.

EDIT: Could also lead to a nice prize pool with gambling sponsors on sbr promoing it, because that's probably one of their biggest deposit times other than the NFL start.

Chaoz, thx for the support. If possible, worth thinking about.

Something different. And I think it would be fun!
