isn't this basically the current steps system? nightly game, winner goes into a MTT qualifier?


i like the idea of SNGs running though

Yeh but if you sped things up a little. Say two $5 qualifiers a day and a GF qualifier every week rather than every month more people will win.

I also think a 20 player $20 SnG would be good. But getting the numbers might be a problem with SnGs

yeah i like this

weekly $40 qualifier on a sunday night - direct buyin or SNG qualifiers in additon to the scheduled ones.

then have either 5 dollar 10 man SNGs, winner ticket, second $10

or have 8 buck 6max SNGs, winner ticket second $8

even right now, it would be cool to just have a 5 buck SNG into the monthly qualifier.

basically replace the scheduled game with a SNG

It takes about 45 minutes for the $1 6-max SNG to fill up, can't imagine the $5 getting full any time soon.

AGREED.

3 steps would be best. First step can start at a $1.
