    dunno if this has been posted yet
    at a 25/50 NL table last night a pokerstars staff member asked ADZ what he thought about a cash game winner take all and the hand replay was to be shown following the match. He also said that Negreanu and other pokerstars members might participate. ADZ liked the idea as did vROUNDER and i think mesmerizeplz but they were a little uncomfortable with their hands being shown later.
    What do you guys think about this idea?

    OBV we'd love to see something like that, but i can understand the hesitation. Esp. for the guys whose bread and butter comes from the cash game. Love the idea...would also like to see a Team pokerstars Tournament or SNG. Then possibly invite some of the top internet guys in an expanded version.

    oh yeah
    as compensation for the hands being shown, the staff member said they will satellite in a freeroller and that would be the compensation lol

    This is obv. a joke. First off, pokerstars support would never ask a player in a chat room about a tournament idea, they would e-mail each player individually so that they don't make any players uncomfortable or "on the spot". Second, this is basically a sng if they play it this way. I'm sure they will have a all pokerstars sng soon.
