Table Ninja will auto tick the boxes for you, but it won't rebuy at the start. Also gonna post in the TN forums to see if they can do anything about it.

That should really be a feature that you dont have to purchase extra IMO.

Removing the $60 180's from the main MTT lobby is just killing the tournament. Put it back.

just a quick bump to say I'd love to see non-turbo 180s higher than $4.50 return, I'm sure $11s would run at a worthwhile rate now without any meaningful effect on liquidity in $8 or $15 turbos, and I don't see the harm in at least trying $22s or $25s.

LOL ever so slightly egotistical. Also no point in having a deal in 180's. Too many regs playing too many tables so it would rarely if ever be used.

There is a tool that does that!

Probably 07:00 - 20:00 server time.

We're still discussing the 1000 level in 45-mans. I know this has been a popular idea in the thread but any structure changes have to be considered carefully. On this subject, is there anyone ITT that thinks this is a bad idea?
Steve, its over a month ago since u posted itt. Since then a lot of suggestions, questions, options, views ect have been brought up. I think it would suit pokerstars to answer there customers right?

What else is the point of this thread if ur not here?

U could just make a quick post if ur to busy with something else at the moment. But leaving us in the dark is kind sad and dosnt suit the image pokerstars want to have with being in conneting/discussions with their customers!

Overall ur doing a good job, but i think it would be great if u could address some of the things brought up since ur last post (17th april).

$60 180-mans are back in the main MTT lobby. They have also been moved from all-day Sunday to peak hours on Tuesday and Sunday.

$4 180 man turbo would be nice. It is a big jump form $2 to $8 dollar.

I know that this has been discussed before, and I think there's people for and against it, but...

Sync breaks in 18-mans.

This would make a huge difference to my personal volume, and is the single most thing I've wanted to see implemented for the last couple of years.

We are going to send out a player survey regarding potential structure changes in 45-mans. I know there is a lot of support in this thread for some additional blind levels. Even so, that is probably 20+ people compared to the tens of thousands who play the 45-mans. Given the strong negative reaction to SNG structure changes last year, we want to ensure there will be general support within the 45-man player pool for any future changes.

Awesome! Thanks a lot for the update!

The $60 45-man and the $7 90-man rebuy are being withdrawn. Neither tournament has been successful and both only ran a couple of times last week.

However, we are going to try an $11 regular speed 180-man at peak hours. This will initially run every day from 09:00 - 17:00 server time. Any unstarted tournament will be cancelled at 19:00.

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, when this tournament was available in the past it didn't run very often. As it can be frustrating for recreational players to register for Sit & Gos that don't run, even after several hours of waiting, I was reluctant to re-deploy it. Now we can deploy peak hours SNG, I think it is worth trying it for a few hours each day. I don't believe this will adversely affect the $8 or $15 turbo 180-mans as the proportion of the $2.50/$3.50/$8.00 turbo 180-man player pool that also plays the $4.50 regular is fairly small. Even so, I will be monitoring the situation closely.

A 180t rebuy with prize pools somewhere between the $15 and $35 would be good. You've already mentioned you think it would effect liquidity too much, well that would be the $35's only pretty much, but they don't even run all that much anyway. Maybe they do in peak, but I think an $8-$9r would run way more than a $35 OFF PEAK and you can always rake the rebuys to match it up with the $35 if that's Stars' frigid ass problem. I'm sure a trial wouldn't crash the internet and stock markets.

As for sending out a survey to fish for the other stuff, I'd guess that hardly anyone would do it. Who does their surveys they get in the inboxes? No one I know of.

Thanks Steve, and it's nice to see them appearing in the MTT lobby under Tourney>All as well; this way you're giving them the best chance to flourish.

But is this really all there is to peak hours? Surely they could stay quite a bit beyond 17:00 server time, and particularly on Sundays, when there are even more tourney grinders playing; otherwise it's not going to give them them any chance at all to gain traction with recreational players from Canada and much less of a chance in Latin America. At least let it register until 21:00 server time, including weekdays, to give people from those countries a chance to play when they get home from work.

Anyway, it's nice to see you're going to trial them, and then, if they still don't run after that, we can finally accept that they're not going to fly at all. But please, extend the time by another four hours.

Cheers

TT

A great way to promote the new 11$ 180m MTT Reg. Speed, please create an identifier for all players to become aware of the new tournament.

For example:

NEW - 11$ 180m SnG Regular Speed ( NEW highlighted in RED )

Nice to see the return of $11 180s. Can you please advertise that they have returned though. Otherwise you run the risk of people with filtered lobbies not even knowing they've been brought back.

Steve, any news on NLO8 hypers? They seemed to be fairly popular over the 3-4 weeks before and during SCOOP. Would you wanna try them during off-peak hours first, since that's when volume is lowest (and would not affect the liquidity of other games as much).
-$3.50 NLO8 6-max hypers
-$15.00 NLO8 6-max hypers
one time?!
