Hey all. Great to see spades added to this site. It is a fun game.
I just wanted players opinions on what they would like to see for tournaments.
It seems like most of the tourny's are set up as 200 5B-50. This is definately not my favotite set-up. I would like to see more 300 5B-50 although it does take longer to play this way. Even 200 1B-10 would be better in my opinion.
200 5B-50 is mostly about who gets the better cards. It takes some of the skill out of it, I think. I know I would play in more tourny's if they all weren't 200 5B-50.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks
300?

Can take too long. Some games can go on for an hour which throws off following events or other activites.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
