It may be the case that some players have never even played it before, thus putting their team at a huge disadvantage.

true but hardly unfair.

Its like a cricket team playing on a "bunsen" then whinging that they don"t have any spinners

It is a poker comp after all and was never promoted as an exclusive NLHE comp

Totally disagree Rob. There was no mention made of PLO being anypart of this comp., therefore it"s a massive disadvantage to anyone who doesn"t know how to play it. Like I said, I doesn"t affect me, but it will affect others.

And using your cricket analagy, it"s nothing like the same, as each cricket team will have had a chance to look at the wicket before announcing their team. To continue the theme, this is a bit like playing 3 test matches and then 2 ODI"s to decide the overall series.

Starshine:
Well should my team reach the final, I can predict that if we win it won be up to me

as I can promise I won"t get any points for my team, well probably 1 point in the sit and go, but that"s it.

Having heads up at the same time than the sit and go, I know I would crap both completely

and I would not even enjoy it, which i think we should

I would prefer the heads up an hour before the other games or on a different day, and before anyone tells me heads up is just a few mins while the sit and go, yes may be, may be not, my longest heads up was 90 mins, and I would not have liked playing any other table with it. So the solution to go as 1st player in hu and go on sitout or late reg in the sit and go will surely not work with me

Some players might be wizards in multitabling, others aren"t (does not make a bad player)

There was also no mention that it was exclusively NLHE

however you are right, the cricket analogy is pretty poor :(

Sugar_Free:
I"m not keen on playing HU the same time as the SNG either
