in theory, they eventually should have to be played. unless the same players are winning all the tickets. i think there are a bunch of different 1 chip players. some of them would have to get lucky and earn there way to step 6. in theory.
and if they don't end up running. like i said towards the end. there should be an out given x period of time. even the ticket value that they have won.
Well first off, yes a lot of the same players will be winning tickets as the player base on Nitro is pretty bad. Secondly, for one s6 to run, it would take 9000 1 chip players. There just isn't the volume for that right now.
And thirdly, we're talking about a site where people start screaming when their bets aren't graded 60 seconds after a game ends. Do you really think they will sit there and wait a couple months to play/get paid out on a SNG ticket?
yes a lot of the same players will be winning the tickets. it only takes a few to get some step 6 running. and i can think of a couple players willing to buy in to step 6 directly, myself being one of them.
as far as having to wait to play. that's the beauty of it for nitro. they will be stuck playing and giving rake. you might have some players who bought in for 1 chip giving 100's in rake before losing or winning. which they would never do since they are 1 chip players.
however yes, a couple months, is definitely too long. which is why i keep saying the out given x period of time. i've said this for the 3rd time now in 3 post. all within the last couple post of this thread.
partypoker had the same issue. even stars had it. i've had high steps tickets in both. and eventually they just paid me out the value of the tickets. which i would be fine with, but it should definitely not be right away, and given some time.
midstakes games are drying up. this could be away to infuse the games and just a suggestion. would give mid/highstakes players something to do, and give microplayers the chance to win big.
