Breaks for nonturbo 18mans please. You know, the ones that take over an hour.

$11/180 non-turbos are awesome.

IMO In terms of buy-in/prizes/duration/structure/field size and strength it's just perfect tourneys for mid-stakes mtt lovers.
Thanks a lot, Stars!

Final Tables need to be redrawn for. It's unfair for players to be able to skip a hand.

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

I feel like there is a lack of promotion for people who play MTTSNGs with greater than 40 people.

The smaller field SNGs have Battle of the Planets.

The MTTs have the leaderboard (which is pretty much impossible to climb when only playing MTTSNGs).

I would suggest removing all MTTSNGs from counting towards the MTT leaderboard and instead counting them towards a new system.

I play on your poker site and like to multi-table different format sit and goes. It would be really helpful if the name of the sit and go was written in the center of the table in the same way you write a Home Poker Club name there. i.e 9 man, 18 man or 27 man.

I could probably increase my volume by 50% in the short term and 100% in the medium term as I would be able to mix mttsngs with stts. I can't currently do this as they require different strategies because of the pay-out structure.
I also think this would be a pretty good idea for those who mix any and all SNGs, whether they are STTs or MTTSNGs.
Yes, I think this is a good idea too. This won't happen in the short term but we are already considering it.

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

There are several posts for and against a new 180 turbo around $4 or $5. We have no plans to add any further 180 turbos for the moment.

With the seasonal trend in player numbers usually being downwards at this time of year, the loss of some SNG players to ZOOM and also the departure of Spanish players, maintaining liquidity is even more important than a few months ago.

great idea and they take longer then turbo 45s. would give the $30s much better chance of running especially offpeak timezone if mtt regs are reggin them. I for one would reg 'em up as opposed to playing on other sites.

Did we get a ps comment on hyper mttsngs yet? Could one be deployed as a trial? Maybe 45 or 36 6max?
