I think keeping a structure that most players are familiar with, will attract the most players.

The current structure 888 is using for Aussie Millions would work best as long as there is a guarantee of one or two entries for each Step.

That is all. :D

I understand that this will attract players, but do you think someone who (for example has paid
$12 into a $120) won 3 events to get a main event ticket, really is as deserving as someone that has played venues for 3 months, then performed well in a state final?
I would rather just do the 3/4 steps, but think there still needs to be a balance.
Sort of depends whether you are looking for a large field at the Main event or a quality field.

This happens ALL the time with different satellites. And to be truthful, getting through three/four/whatever steps in an online satellite process (depending on runners of course) could in fact be tougher than performing well in ONE state final.
Riskers gamble, experts calculate.

The reality is that many players who play in grand finals and now the Main Event usually win their seat via a satellite [no criteria to play] or by purchasing a ticket [No different to any other casino tourny].

Maybe, once Glyn puts out his proposal, a poll could be organised to see what is the preferred option, and more importantly, how many would participate.

IMO Home Game Scoreboard Reward Players for Top 9 of the Season Would be a Great Idea.At the Moment they Receive No recognition.Correct me if I'm Wrong.Or Get them To play off at Main Event on the Poker Pro Tables for a Prize :-))).Freeroll Structure is Great and Numbers Prove this so Leave that alone.Start a Twin Jmack Challenge Game 2 Games same Time If You win Both Get Like Extra Points for Home Score Board and $$$$.Replace a Feature Event with a Steps Event.Daily get rid off :? .
Also Doe's 888pl receive Data Sheets on Tourneys and Traffic Numbers to your Hosted Online Events ???Crunch Some Numbers and keep the Good Numbers and Dispose of the Bad.

My Cookies are Laced with Genius Today :lol: .Thanks a Munchness see you on the Virtual Felts Humanoids Omnnumnumnum
