Cash Tour Development - Finalise Format for DTD
s4ooter:
For Dusk till Dawn we will look to move the starting time back from 6pm to 9pm to allow more eliminations from the 6-Max to play the Cash Tour - and we will look to trial the above proposed timings for the Cash Tour in Scotland at the APAT Scottish Championships.
Does this mean ill be able to play now?
Will Team Game be done by 9pm, and if not can i not just late reg (if introduced)

The team game will not be done before midnight I would not have thought. I have never known one that has been.

True, i suppose its bad news for us if the team game is done by then!!
TGBane:
Increase Stack to £200 : thats good.
£50 buy in/rebuys/addons : thats ok.
Late Registration : one hour seems good.
Tokens for unused rebuys : a must.
Deadline : 20 mins before end of phase and then last 3/5 hands.
Phase 2 players : Im torn, I want the most money on the table but believe that the biggest profit shows the better (luckier) player, hows about the top profitable stacks either use remaining re buys or forfeit final table?
Incentive : its like the best idea.......ever! :)
Friday start : A great idea to start saturday at 9 and play final table on the sunday, its going to generate a lot more players and the final table an audience, and not miss the plo.
Making day 2 of the main event will soften the blow of missing the cash.
Straddle : no thank you.
Its a tournament : tournament rules
dwh103:
Buy In
£200 buy in worked well imo.
Late reg
Nothing against 30 mins, maybe an hour late reg, as long as a bunch of mates don"t end up at the same table.
Tokens
- Tokens/lammers for sure. I think it would be easiest if everyone buys in for £50+reg+champs fee, then any reloads before play starts to be done at the table. Saves messing around with different stacks and relying on tournament staff to make notes. £50 in chips plus 3 lammers can be ready and waiting at the table.
Deadline for rebuys
I don"t think there should be a deadline, anything that potentially forces players to add-on is a negative because...
Profit or stack size
If it"s to be truly open to all then people should be allowed to take a shot with a single buy-in, so I"m more in the profit bracket. You decide the best cash player by profit, not the size of their stack. However, whilst I think this should definitely be the criteria for qualifying for the final table, it might be a bit weird to have a winner with £500 and 2nd having £600. Profit to qualify, stack size to win, does consistency matter?
Incentives & timing
So far, numbers have restricted the success of the format imo. Moving it to Saturday would be a massive boost - no need for an extra nights hotel and the timings mentioned sound perfect - so much dead time of a Sunday morning to be filled and 1am isn"t really too late. Awesome idea.
Other
As it"s deeper, no opinion on straddles. And as long as the rules are clearly stated then either - I"d slightly fall down on the side of tournament rules though.
