Default Should we have a monthly tournament with weekly satelites?
thanks to xxbwatxx for this suggestion

Suggestion
------------
This is what I was thinking that THF could do.
1)Set up a monthly tourney(either 55$ or 109$ buy in)
2)11$ satellites to it throughout the month
3)winner of monthly tourney gets a 50$ bounty on them in next bounty game.

----------------------------

what do you guys think?

we could have a weekly satelite to it (for example monday or wednesdays) but if members wanted to pay the $55 or whatever to take part they can do that as well

thanks for the suggestion bwat

great idea Bwat. I suggest staggering the satellites on different nights to accomodate different schedules.

well we dont want to have too many satelites...i dont want any game to have too few players

so how about we still have it once a week but change the day and time every week

month A
week 1 : Sat 1 on Monday 7pm ET
Week 2 : Sat 2 on Wednesday at 2pm ET
Week 3 : Sat 3 on Saturday at 5pm ET
Week 4 : Another sat early in the week plus the final

i think a $55 would be realistic.

I may be able to set aside some cash for this in the future but for now ive invested everything into the full tilt games until january, the weekly ps games and of course the league.

So we would need to make sure each sat game had 6+ players - so that the winner can go through. (eg $60 in the pot to cover the $55 buy in)

Looks like a good idea! In the satellites, would there still be regular payouts as well or is it just the entry to the big tourney? (I've never played a satellite so sorry if that's a stupid question)

this is a game id have to get ps to set up but im assuming we can work it a few ways

Scenario 1 : 7 players. Winner goes through and $15 goes to the winner
Scenario 2 : 12 players. Winner goes through and $65 gets split to the top 3 players
Scenario 3 : 12 players. 2 players go through with $10 going to the winner

ie. if there is enough money for another player to go through - do they go through or do we just split up the cash between the winners.

Im sure ps could advise us on this - im not sure if we can decide or if they have a set way of doing this
