Will you have ten starting tables regardless of the number of entries ? do you think it will get the 100 ?

ideally 10 tables being 10-handed and winner of each will proceed to final table - however if we get less then on the day (start of event) we will make a decision - eg

50 - is it 10-tables of 5 and winner still proceeds to final table (or 30 being 10 tables of 3 etc), or

50 - 5 tables of 10 and top 2 of each proceed to final table

That decision will be taken immediately prior to event start/table draw

NB this event WILL now have a late entry - 30 mins

Sounds good ... noon really is pretty early for poker players  ;D but the roads should be quiet !!!

I think most would prefer the latter, fewer tables with larger number of players and 1 or 2 to the final table. With the former, you"d have every final table player with the same stack which is fine but with the latter, you get a really interesting/tricky dynamic 3-handed where we players would have to decide if we want to make the final table or make it with a decent stack  :)

mporter123:
Shooutout has to be winner of the table only that progresses. Wouldn"t really make sense to do it any other way or it"s not really a shooutout.

Also careful over how we do late registration. It"s not usual to have let reg for a shootout tournament, it would really need to be late reg players starting a new table rather than being added to an existing table. You don"t want one person having to potentially beat 8 players and another person having to beat 10. Lets hope it sells out and you dont have to worry about that.
