View: there should be more weekend contained $1k+ buyin tournaments

I’m largely a recreational player now, my normie career has done well enough that it no longer makes sense to put a lot of time into poker. I can realistically only play weekends, and really only Saturday/Sunday because I’m too tired on Friday to want to play much. I still like to play though and do when I’m able to.

I basically only play $5/$10 and higher, I’ll play $25/$50 if it’s being spread reasonably close to me. When I was younger I played a good amount of tournaments, and I’d like to play more tournaments again.

However my options for tournaments are pretty limited. I’m not interested in <$1k events. I would play $2k-$10k events and even fly on a Friday to catch a 2 day Saturday/Sunday high roller.

These events seem very rare though. There are a lot of main events with a final table Monday, but in my career it’s tough to randomly take a day off just because I’m on a final table.

I feel like there are a good amount of people like me, who’d like to play bigger buy in events, if they started on a Saturday morning and wrapped on a Sunday evening. Why don’t these happen more regularly?
