I was thinking over a bit my earlier complaints about CarbonPoker's widespread "re-entry" system, and also thinking about CarbonOPS #22 in one week which I've already registered for, and it hit me--Carbon hosting more Knockout tournaments would be an excellent solution for the annoyances of the re entry system. Unlike all other formats, Knockout tournaments actually benefit from readily available rebuys/re-entries even if a Guaranteed prizepool amount isn't exceeded! Instead of just enhancing the prizepools, (which is not a factor usually in Guaranteeds) re-entries in a Knockout tournament directly benefit the players that are good enough to not need to re enter by providing more bounties to collect, giving the re-entries a truly, undeniably useful reason to be there!

If Carbon would even so much as TRY this idea in the form of say a "Knockout Frenzy," they would pretty much cement themselves as my favorite online poker room.

I always liked the knock-out MTT's on carbon and did well in them. Probably why they took most of them off their scheduled games. They use to have a lot more of them few years ago it seemed. Now you really have to look hard to find 1 or 2 a day.

I very much agree with this post! The reentry period is insanely long and rather sickening! This would certainly make it more fun.. Knock that donk out and get his bounty he comes back in and keeps on trying! haha I love it and would certainly be playing there a lot more often.

Maybe a very late registration can be a good solution for these tourneys.

knockouts

I agree more knockouts would improve site. I would also like to see more reg. Tourneys I really dislike the double ups and super turbos. It leads to wait and push all in.

Why not just bring back all the knockout tourneys they had back then. Also return the knockout sngs that were so popular a few years ago.
