i guess we can make the choice as to whether we play it or not.

thanks for mentioning this, i obviously fail at reading and i didn't realise this.

myself, i would probably prefer if they were on the same day, multitabling FTW, but its fine that its on a different day.

You play for x amount of hours and carry your chips over.


interesting idea. not sure it can be implemented in the 888 software though.

what about a spin on this idea though - on a saturday night, for 5 weeks consecutively, you could have a "series" event.

instead of the standard $10+1 for a tournament, you pay $10+1+3 or something like this. this would be easy to implement in the 888 software because you can change the amount of rake taken.

then, those tourneys have a separate leaderboard, and there is a prize pool for it, which is generated by the players playing over the previous weeks.

if you had 5 weeks with 20 people paying $3 towards a leaderboard, you would get $300 for an end of season prize pool which you could distribute to the top 3 or something. what do you think sunbury?

The series idea is a pretty good one.
Would build up interest towards the main weekend too.

hi benny the cunt i was thinking something similar but across the series similar to the Autumn Classic, if you can rake that extra $ it would raise a nice amount and add a little extra brag. Maybe a little extra incentive to play all events too.

Yeah agree, I think it would be good. You could rake every event in the online champs an extra $1 and give a gf ticket for the best performed over the whole champs series
