    I was talking to some one about this the other day wanted to see what other people thought.

    1$ buyin and everyone starts with 1 chip

    The ante's start out at like 1m chips so your allin every hand

    I was thinking you could run them in SNG format every 12000 one starts and winner gets a Main Event ticket.

    I think they would be crazy addictive and so much fun.

    Thoughts?

    Cake does this already and they are lame, degen gambling at its truest form, no skill involved whatsoever. Go buy a lottery ticket, at least you get to pick your own #'s then....

    I wouldn't hate this idea, especially if I were playing in the ME with the winner!

    I'd rather they kept pure gambling off of the sites though. Having gambling games like blackjack, casino games, kamikaze tournaments and the like on our poker sites gives our legal opponents ammunition to attack us with. Plus it keeps gamblers from giving their money to the sharks.

    thats all good but what if you do it with play money? the concept is good for demo of RNG to people that think 'the sites are rigged'. Free for all new accts

    If they did it without rake, it would be fun to mess around with.

    What about a $1 hyper turbo 12,000 man SNG?

    I like that idea better. Probably would fill up within an hour on weekends.
