Has there ever been any thoughts of each participant putting up a $1.00 "bounty" chip It could be a chip from any casino anywhere. If you knock someone out you get their chip and if you get knocked out you give them yours. Could be fun.Imagine if you knocked out 10 or 12 people...that would be a nice little fun score. Your chip could be used as card marker until that unfortunate time.
We played a tourney like that a few weeks ago. Everyone had a chip(mind you they were all from Vancouver casinos),and had them in airtites so that they could use them as card markers. When they got knocked out they handed them over to the victor. I won 4...I was happy and it was kinda fun.
Just an idea.
