Yeah I agree that is hard to find such tournaments.

However, i think your solution is flawed: action twice as quick, and twice the starting stack (or half blinds)? Would they not just cancel each other out? Meaning it would be the same as before?


I guess what I mean is that in each hours play, each player would be involved in much more action, and more pots. Therefore, the tournament would fit into the same space of time, but be more intense.

Byronkincaid is right, alot of people are used to 6 seated play as their usual game. This idea would never come in quickly, but I'd love to see a short handed event tried at a few festivals in England.

Blue Square are doing another of their 6-handed events soon I think. Ask Jon Raab.

Yes, there is a repeat of last year's "Super Six" at Bolton in July, 15th to 17th, but that's subject to confirmation.

unfortunately it's in June when I'm on holiday

15-17 july? aint in june

if it is in june they are cutting it a bit fine in announcing it why i am shocked?
