Here are some thing I think would make playing online at WSOP better:
More guaranteed non-rebuy tournaments.

More tournaments starting before 7pm. Most of us have day jobs, and we would like to get to bed at a reasonable hour if we run deep.

Sit&Go's are weak. I suggest the following: Schedule S&G's (1,2,3 table) to start on each 1/2 hour mark. This will avoid the problem of having to wait around forever for a S&G to fill up.

So you're suggesting an MTT without a guarantee for every half hour.

I am suggesting several capped single or MTT's every half hour, with varying buyin sizes. This should be a reasonable replacement for the lackluster S&G traffic.

Tourment schedules could see some improvement.
How about adding more lower buyin tournies that allow registration up until 6:30pm on weeknights? Put a smaller guarantee on them, so they'll gain interest. 888 does this, and they get a decent turnout. Consider some more freezeout tournies (no R&A) up to $20 entry. Aside from the grinders, your target audience is the working Joe, who just doesn't want to be up til 2AM and then try to go to work the next morning.

Have the chips visually show the raise like on pokerstars. If you're playing .25/.5 and 1/2 and someone raises to $2 at .25/.50 it looks just like a limp if it was at 1/2 and it's confusing when multitabling.

1. more freezeouts. i believe i speak for a decently sized contingent of players when I say that I really hate R&A tourneys

2. higher stakes on the SNGs overall, but especially the HU SNGs. $20 is just too low. at least spread some $200, $500 games, etc...if nobody plays, so be it

can't think of anything else right now but I may come back to edit this post later--overall though, I'm really liking WSOP. good job guys.

This ...

The four color deck showing artwork is total wrong.
Whats weird is the solid color 4 color deck has the colors correct.

How you guys cannot fix this ASAP already is beyond me. It's a simple fix.

I don't understand WSOP's obsession with R&A. Everybody just wants guaranteed freezeouts and they would make the same amount of rake and have the tourney end sooner.

but then they would have smaller guarantees and wouldn't look as good to them, even though its the same amount of rake. I'm one of those guys with a regular job, and starting a tourney at 7pm is fine, but giving players 2 hours of rebuys is INSANE, its like starting a tourney at 9pm and giving everyone double stacks. Even the 10k guarantee on sundays... why is it starting at 8pm? I'm off from work on mondays, but most people aren't, their logic is mind boggling sometimes

Bill, please fix the #1 wait list problems, #2 auto time bank problems, #3 for those of us who like to multi-table a one click button to return to all tables (and post all blinds). These are the three that keep my experience from being less than 100% A-OK. Please talk to other multi-tablers, I am sure this would make them all very happy players. Happy players spread the word when happy, and also when unhappy lets get HAPPY.

Please don't turn this site into pokerstars where all the multi tablers have the screen filled with all kinds of little buttons and options that benefit them lol...

I would say get that ipad app going...

I would like to see an all in protection feature that Full Tilt used to or maybe still has where if you get booted during a hand you're considered all in and you don't automatically get folded. There should be some sort of protection from getting kicked off in the middle of a hand since it happens quite frequently.

Or if you do, limit it to once or twice a month for each player. It's too easy to turn your modem off when facing an all in bet with a decent pot and essentially get to call for free.

For the R&A tourneys, give us 30 seconds before the tournament starts to do a rebuy. Some people like to auto rebuy immediately but if you win the first hand you can't.
