It is likely that the opening weekend of season 6 will be either Feb 25th & 26th or Mar 31st & Apr 1st. Discussions are ongoing so don"t shoot us if things change please. But I"m using the Feb dates for my planning purposes atm.

Just a thought on the HU Championship.
Would either of the following work.
1. Have the preliminary rounds (2 possibly), online, a month or so prior to the Worlds. This way the live event can have longer blinds and more chips or be best of 3 or even both. For people taking a day off just for this event it should represent as much value as we can give it.
2. The initial round be a round robin format of 4 players in a group with each player playing the other 3 in a league, with the winner progressing to the last 16 say. This way the "cooler" hand is mitigated to a fair degree and everyone gets 3 games and meets new people.
Just a thought. Happy New Year.

2 great ideas here. This event definitely needs looking at because I have felt it hasn"t given players good "bang for their buck"
at the same time, running cost issues such as the number of dealers needed and the time factor have made this difficult to improve on.
rich"s ideas seem to be a good compromise, especially number 1

I suggested (1) earlier in this thread. Like the sound of (2) too. Change is needed.
