    isnt this how shootouts used to work on party with top 3 from each table advancing and keeping the chips the had. i know there was some tourney on party like this you got paid each round you advance tho on party.

    I would definately play these. Would be even better if you carried your chips through to the next round like the Party shootouts used to (haven't played party in a long time so don't know if they still do). May need to add an extra 1,000 chips to everyone's stack each round to accomodate the increasing blinds.

    I think it is a great idea, but I see some problems.

    In a regular shoot-out, with the winner only advancing, everyone starts each new round with the same number of chips. In this format, would you reset the chips at the beginning of each new round? If not, you could technically have someone advancing with NO chips. This could happen with a three-way "all-in" with four left, with the biggest stack winning. The third place finisher would be the guy who started with the biggest stack of the two losers, and who ends up having $0, but finishing third.

    On the other hand, if you reset the stacks at each new level, aren't you sort of penalizing the guy that actually won?

    i think these turbo 3+R satelites are hit or miss but are always donk-fests and i think that all satelites should ONLY BE 1 rebuy 1 add-on ONLY ... otherwise they just get too crazy ...

    i would like to see a 5+5+5 satelite set-up instead of 3.00 ..

    more money, less time for donking ..

    either that OR instead of 30 minutes until break make it 20 and cut it shorter, 30 minutes of random all ins pisses me off with below average random hands getting played all in for a half an hour ..

    PLEASE stars CHANGE this set-up for the 215 and 162.00 satelites ..

    This may be the best idea a P5er has had in a LONG time regarding the masses of poker players looking to satellite into the million and can not afford the 215, BRAVO to you sir.
