Saturdays would be a no-go for me too as that is by far my most busiest time with the family. I liked the Wednesday nights. It starts at 8pm my time which was perfect - normally no other commitments that night.

As for whether I plan to participate - I will probably play in some of these tournaments however due to limited budget would not be able to play in the majority of them.

I understand the need for the higher entry fee and the number of weeks involved to raise the $1500 fee - perhaps as the popularity grows we will see more people participating so that next time we can lower the weekly entry fee.

Just out of curiosity - whats the minimum number of players you need to participate weekly in order to ensure enough money? What happens if we fall short of that goal? What happens if a weekly winner fails to fork over his/her share of the entry fee?
