Strange, as you can see I have very little experience running (or participating in) a shootout format. Logistically, I can see things taking far too long if you were to wait until every table got down to two players but if that is the way a shootout is played then that is how you run it.

Captn, I hope your plaques will be in play for the tourny.

I already have tables ready to go for side games- .25-$1 Spread Limit, and .25-.50 No Limit, plus a dealers choice table- should offer lots of variety and fun for all! (Hopefully) Unfortunately Brewster the plaques won't come out, there won't be enough chips to make them feasable! But I am going to start a smaller tourney later in the evening and get them out- 6 man T50K Blinds start at 500-1000. Hopefully that will go over well to!

Thanks Again Guys!!
