cut 8s, replace with 5s, as well as 8 rebuys. that makes abi scale 2.5 - 5 - 10 - 15 - 24 - 35 instead of 2.5 - 8 - 10 - 15 - 35


Also, seperate leaderboard for MTTSNGs, cause 180s can't compete for MTT leaderboard
This ideia (the alternative suggestion) is really good!

Re: *** OFFICIAL PokerStars MTTSNG Suggestion Thread ***

doubt they'll introduce 5s after introducing them 8 months ago or so, then pulling them after 2 days.

7/8r would be neat

+1 to 180man leaderboards and lower and higher turbo rebuy 180s

Also, what about 180man turbo knockouts? I assume KO bounties are good for regs while probably attracting more recreational players at the same time. Imo, all the non-rebuy turbos could be KOs, except for the highest buyins maybe.

Oh and even though I don't play them any more, do something about 45man grinders being cut from leaderboard and BoP.

Re: *** OFFICIAL PokerStars MTTSNG Suggestion Thread ***

The NLO8 18 man turbo SNGs have been incredibly popular. However, they currently only exist at the following levels:
$1.50
$3.50
$7.00
$15.00

The $3.50s are byfar away the most popular, but believe it or not, the $15s come a close second during peak hours - they are MORE popular than the $7.00s. Is there any chance of adding higher levels for these games? A $30 and $60 version would be very attractive to some cash game players that might consider $15 "too small".

Additionally, there has been suggestions of adding different variations of the game. Someone suggested more 27-man and 45-mans, perhaps at the $3.50, $7.00 or $15 levels. This would be a complement to the regular 18 mans and would attract some NLHoldem 45 man players to give the game a shot.

Leaderboards for 45s and 180s sounds great.

Also add just one more regspeed 45man. Like 15$. The highest currently is 6$ if u wanna play regspeed.

Agree...the jump from 2.5 to 8 is huge and the jump from 15 to 35...there should be a gradual scale up

Re: *** OFFICIAL PokerStars MTTSNG Suggestion Thread ***

Having too many levels of buyins would be bad for 180's in general.

Turbo 27's would be a terrible idea unless you're scrapping either 18's or 45's and both are popular.

Huge +1 for 180 leaderboard.

Re: *** OFFICIAL PokerStars MTTSNG Suggestion Thread ***

180 man leaderboard is pretty much a necessity. Possibly merging it with the 45s in some way would be the best way to go about it.

I think that a 7r/8r would be awesome because it is appealing to both regs and recs due to its low initial BI, for the recs, and the high yield for the regs. If an 8r was employed then perhaps changing the 8s to a 6.50 would be the best option so there aren't any overlaps in the BI's and it would lead to a smoother spread of BI's in general. If a 7r was used then there wouldn't be a need for changing of any other BI's.

Higher BI's i personally don't think are high on the list of things to introduce for 180s, purely because the $35s don't run all that often as it is. But i can certainly see how they could lead to softening the lower BI's if they got enough volume, which again is something that will benefit the recs more and keep the games ticking over.
