I am looking to setup a team poker tournament. I have seen a couple of formats, but don’t know which one is the best one to use.

only 3 formats that i appove of
1 heads up matches
2 serveral comps all played at same time with 1 person per team in each comp points given due to placing
3 one comp with serveral players in each team 1 person per team allowed to play at any one time with subs being made when captain choices
any other form of team poker can lead to cheating

Have you played any team event, which one do you think works the best? |

i played in a HU comp but that doesnt mean to say i think its best
i think all 3 have there merits but the problem lies in if people still left in the comp have nothing to play for they could be open to deal making for this reason all comps must start at same time and no offical scoring to be announced untill the games are all over

Nice one, Did'nt think of that. How about the single table format? any issues you think I should be aware of? |

single table can still be open for deal making unless they are all played at same time
ie player A needs to finish last but 1 to ensure they win they offer player b whose team is alreay out x% of the prize pool if he throws the event there are plent of other things along these lines that could lead to cheating so all events should be held at same time and players still playing shouldnt know the results of other games

How about a single table and team members take it in turns to play, will that work?

Im worried that with only one player at the table the game will be slow and r=the waiting players will get bored. Have you played the single table table format. If so, how did it go?

Depends how many team you have, but with ten or less STTs work well.
IE you have 9 teams of four players you play four STTs with one member from each team in each one (Drawn at random). Players score points depending on where they finish (1pt for 9th, 2pt for 8th ... 9pt for 1st)
At the end the team with the most points wins. You can even play a couple of rounds if you have the time.

Sound good, but ironside said that this leaves to toourney open to deal making. I cant get my head around how to play it with more than 10 teams. |

HU torny if 10 or more i think,
Or
You could use the tag format with say 18 teams and have 2 tables, this might take an age + lead to boredom though.

How about starting with a MTT system and condense it down ending up with a single final table??

because it can lead 2 more than 1 player from same team on any table leading to chip dumping which there is more than enough of without teaching people how to do it |
