Oh. My bad. Sorry. LOL, and they only had 13 runners today with one rebuy and one add on. They'd do a lot better if it were Hi/Lo.

None have been announced, but that does not necessarily mean that there won't be any by the time it starts. It just means that there is not any so far.

Merge are open to suggestions, and do react to popular demand.

Merge should know that PLO8 is more popular than PLO. Yet there are twice as many PLO tourneys for Maximus and they're spread out over 5 days. PLO8 only has three tourneys and they all run basically at the same time on the same day. And there are no satellites to any of them. Last night there were 216 runners in the $3.30 PLO8. We need some love.

For real...whats an O8er got to do?

O8 traffic outweighs PLO traffic in mtt and sngs all day everyday. Current O8 mtts constantly exceed their G's. More tournaments with some higher buyins ($109 10KG)and satellites would certainly fill.

DO IT! Make more monnies. Thank me later.

Definitely would be a good thing to see more non NLHE type tournaments in the mix. I'm all for seeing PLO/PLO8 and Horse especially.

To me, I would love if the main event had a deepstack starting stack of 10k and blinds moving every 30 min. Allow for more play, more poker, less luck and flips in the later levels of the tournament.

Re: *****Poker Maximus (Online Poker Tournament Series) DETAILS!*****

Can we PLEASE get a 7 card stud hi event if there's not one? I would LOVE a pot limit one, like the games you are spreading now, which I've never seen anywhere but on merge and it's a kickass game. I'm gonna try and start some non-micro games of it, but the micro games do run all the time!

Also, I've searched but cant find a poker maximus schedule, can someone link it please? I'm guessing because it keeps changing or maybe instead of google I should log into the client and see if its there.

edit: I see it here http://thepokermaximus.com/poker-tournaments.html maximus has its own web page

+1, PL Stud is AWESOME. Back in the FT days, HU Stud was also quite fun.

Yeah, this kind of structure would take far too long to complete. While I agree that it would be great, its simply not practical.

EV is the overlay in the tournament. I.E. 10k guarantee with only 8k in buyins would have an EV of 2k

is there any incentive to try and play as many of these tournies as possible, like if you top the leader board what is the prize if anything at all?
