4th: $200
5th: $150

The issue I have is that this pay scale is clearly heavily weighted towards the top two spots. Going from 4th to 3rd increases the payout by 25%...going from 3rd to 2nd increases the payout by 100%...going from 2nd to 1st increases by 50%.

As I type this I realize that Merge will undoubtedly have to be the one that changes this and not Lock. If this is beyond your control, Rizen, I totally understand. I just wanted to point out that the structure is currently set up more like a multi table sit and go rather than a multi table tournament.
Agree with jagtalon on this one multi table tournament payouts are quite top heavy.

Also a tournament dollars option from satellites would be great. Still very happy with Lock overall though.

For HU tables a top-bottom layout would be nice ... the left-right layout is very tilting.

the Hand History replayer really needs to be fixed. It really is the most tilting thing on lockpoker. You cant copy+Paste anything to brag to friends about hero calls, and it just takes too long to go back and view a hand when your mutitabling. I really hope you fix this asap. IMO FullTilt had the best hand replayer, so hopefully your IT guys can try and remodel it to something like that.

There is a replayer available in the dashboard (by clicking 'STATS' in the client, or going to http://admin.lockpoker.eu) that allows you to replay hands in a very friendly format and share them on social media with 1 click.

As of right now you have to get a hand # to plug into the replayer, which can be difficult to do while playing tons of tables.

We were in the middle of working on some features that would make it A LOT easier to use it for the purposes you're talking about around Black Friday and obviously our priorities have been elsewhere since then. I'm sure we'll circle back and get those finished ASAP sometime after the store launches.

Thanks Eric. I had no idea this existed and I'm willing to bet most other players also didn't.

As you said, though, there should be an easier way to get to this type of replayer. Please keep it on the ever-growing to-do list.

I brought this accidently up in the bug report thread, so here we go again:

I definetely like your site, even that I have to play at night to get some sort of volume as a european. I am playing mostly 12 tables mini-view, and there are couple things, which would make my life a lot easier.

first, when I am taking a note on someone, and the action comes to a different table, the mouse/ cursor goes straight to the table with the decision automaticly, even before I finished taking the note. this is really annoying, and can easily be fixed, I guess. at the moment I always have a txt-document opened and write and copy-paste my note from there.

second, replace these silly symbol-tags by a reasonable colourcode system as stars or FTP does.

third, the note taking window is just ineffectively used. three-quarters of the space of that window is just used for stuff like adding-friends or tagging players. the actual note window is super tiny, that it takes some effort to read the note. the total window should be much smaller, and more effectively used. it just pops up, and covers almost one and a half tables while I am playing, so I can´t focus on the action of these tables. I really like to see this to get fixed.

I really would appreciate to have a player search function attached to the note box, because it helps identivy recreational players a lot. even if it´s a small playyer pool per stake, it´s somewhat usefull to see how many tables a guy is playing and makes some decisions and table selection a lot easier.

I am using the mini-view. here I find it sometimes hard to see intuitively, that before it´s my turn a open raise and a 3-bet has occured. it leads to misscklicks where I sometimes called a raise, and a 3bet OOP with a speculative hand, and sometimes I actually called a raise, and a shortstacker-shove with deuces, becuase I just didn´t see, that this was a 30BB-shove. I guess, if the bet-sizes wouldn´t be in "white" but in a different colour would fix this.

when someone is putting me all in, the "all-in-call"-button and the fold button are looking differently as the normal decision buttons do. usually my eye follows the action by just seeing the decision-buttons, so the active table jumps into my eye intuitively. but if there is a call-all-in decision to be made it looks so much different, that the table doesn´t jump into my eye intuitively.

replayer would be nice, but you guys seem to work on that.

I hope I could help you with that. but again, I think you´re on a good way.

I know its been said and you can't do much about it but srsly these payout structures are ******ed. In a $11 deepstack, 331 registered, 50 paid, 50-41 receive mincash of $8.17..

Ya, agree you guys really need to do something about payout structures. It doesn't make sense some times.

in a 49 player field, you will pay 5 people
in a 50 player field, you will pay 10 people

makes 50 player fields very undesirable imo because first and second get a lot less than they would with 49 people. You guys should start paying out top 5, top 8, top 12, top 16, top 20, etc.

Can you please have support change this, it would be nice to have these "rooms" have a buyin in the title - so like "Cape Hunting Dog Room $2 SNG" instead of just Cape Hunting Room.

Here is a screenshot of the lobby with some of these circled.

Yea, +1 to these guys, its pretty absurd tbh.

Eric, I know you yourself don't have the authority to change the payout structures, but please, besides cashouts I think this should be one of the items of highest priority. Is there anyone we the players could email at the merge network to maybe expedite the process?
07-12-2011 , 04:11 PM
It'd be nice if you guys fixed the sng leaderboard page on the website. I know ebes is in 1st, but beyond that its a complete mystery.
07-12-2011 , 08:05 PM
Also in regards to tourneys again, you need to put late reg on the 1r's that run like every 1-1.5 hrs. Only tourney I've seen with a guarantee with no late reg. The prizepool would increase by 50-100% with the std late reg policy of 55 mins attached

Also the 3r 2k that starts at 7pm EST is messed up, the addon period happens at sycn break, but late reg continues 15 more mins after the addon point.

Seriously, if you could PM me an email address or anything, I'd write up a big proposal of changes that could be/implemented to their entire mtt sched. I'd show it to some other MTTers and get feedback, show you before it was sent, etc...think we could make this better in a short amount of time

I'll be writing you an email then at some point in the next few days. Was talking to some other players who grind on merge to get their opinions as well.


Another fix is that the SNG leaderboard needs to be weighted somehow. A super turbo shouldnt count the same as a regular 9 man or 10 man, and are double up's even included?

DoNs are NOT included, the 9/10 man SnGs do award points differently, although upon first glance I'm not sure if it's weighted properly or not.

I was looking at the Borgata sattalite MTT and I was trying to find more info on it. It would be nice if you guys could put a link in the lobby to show more info for the MTT.

Also, when is the date of the package? Im going to spain in mid August, so I need to know if I should bother playing this or not.

It's Sept 18-22. I'll talk to them about adding more info on the main page.

If you decide to turn off the auto top off feature and you are manually adding chips, you currently need to specify the amount you want to add. You should be able to enter the amount you want to be at ... e.g. if you are at NL100, just type in top off to 100.

Is it a direct register event by you guys or do you put money in our account if we win the seat?

Playing probably my 3rd session on lock. Here are my suggestions..Will edit as I go.

1 - Add on issues. Dialogue popped up asking if I would like to add-on..I accidentally clicked "No," and the box was never to be seen again.

2 - Hand History is the absolute worst I've ever seen online.

3 - Preferred seat doesn't work at all. Every time I come to a table I have to spend 15 minutes manually configuring my HUD, moving each players stat box to their correct seat. This is probably a hand history issue too.

Thanks for the feedback. A couple of follow up questions.

On #2, can you provide some constructive feedback? What i mean is, it's difficult for me to recommend how to improve the hand histories without knowing what is so bad about them and what would make them better.

On #3, are you not being properly seated in your preferred seat or is your HUD not recognizing what seat you're in? If it's the former this definitely needs to be addressed by us, if it's the latter it's probably something for the PT/HEM team to look at, although if there is something in the HH files that they need I'd be happy to pass that along.

Would it be possible to give out bonuses to clear for playing say xxx hands or xxx SNG a day like RPM does. Or is it not possible with the casino bonuses your working on?

Reload bonuses? I feel like adding reload bonuses would get more people to deposit via WU. And I would really like to get the WU cashout option back on the casino side.
