Present schedule is the worst IMO in the last year. It is sad because u have way better schedule about 2months ago. I understand u cant meet every players wish but u get now very good numbers but im sure when the magic of new will lose numbers will decrease because this is not a rec friendly schedule.

8-10 min blinds work well on .ES . I understand 2hour late reg is mandatory for bigger prizepools but please let go this minimum 20bb late reg . If some fish /reg want to reentry or reg 10bb then its their problem. Im only speaking about 5-22 range.

I disagree, I find it awesome that you can late reg at the very end still with 20BB. Personal preference.

Hi guys, just back from Rozvadov and checking out the new software, really hope I'm not being blindsided and biased here, but I think its really, really, really good. Looking forward to playing on it tomorrow and reporting couple little tweaks here and there to make it even better. It will be in your hands very soon!

Opened and closed the client today, just.. ugh i cant stand it
Lobby will be in the next build, btw, lot of people dont realise but "power series" is the best tab to use, easy to see everything, even though I understand not optimal that its not re sizeable.

Withdrew my br cuz i'd rather play on other sites with more stability .

When you have ps.eu/ps.es/winamax/888/acr to play on , are you missing out by not playing on party ? sadly my answer to that would be no .
I've said it a lot of times, but I've helped build a schedule and it will run from March 5th and be with solid foundations that dont need a lot of big changes. Of course you're welcome to play on 888 and whatever other sites you want, we will do our best from this side to try and win customers with improved software/schedule/guarantees/rakeback and promotion, we understand there is loyal players to every site for lots of different reasons, hopefully our new schedule makes people loyal to ours.

That has always been the plan.

I know you like to moan etc, its cool to let emotions/tilt out at other things so I don't mind, but you're just unreasonable here, which is ok, it just consuming replying a lot to it.

We had a huge standalone series literally a couple of weeks ago with gigantic guarantees every day, we had another one in November? We had the biggest even of the year in December, we had huge series in September, massive series in May, we can't just have powerfest series every month, but we want to continue adding huge guarantees and thus KO series fits in well here. We already released all dates for series this year

https://www.partypoker.com/blog/part...ne-series.html

10 big series.

Like I said its fine to hate, I completely get it, but being pissed at there being a KO series is pretty unreasonable when the schedule has been turned around to be very balanced.

Basically a KO series is good for every single member of the site.

Pretty much all the clocks need to be shortened. Every single trny from$5.50's- $109's take an absurdly unreasonable amount of time to reach ITM, final 2 tables, and so on. Literally every single trny takes way too long.

Im not playing on the site yet as you still cant stack/overlap tables when playing on mac but i had a look at the schedule and i think its a big improvement on what we had before.Mornings look better already especially, hopefully some more additions to come.

Like others have said from looking at lobbies, seems most tournaments are too long, specially lower stakes ones.Id personally prefer less starting chips in bounties and turbos at least.

Your mega sats would be better $5 to 55s, $11 to 109s, $22 to 215s.

Correct - it was called "Knockout week" and ran as part of there December festival. It didn't cater for micro players though (lowest buy-in was $11) so, PP's upcoming KO week is much better IMO, as it caters for all buy-in levels and everyone has the chance to participate. I think it's going to prove to be quite popular...

I have to agree with you here and say that I personally think your on the right track. It's not the 5th March yet and already the schedule is starting to look a lot more balanced than previously IMO.

I think once the turbos are added to the :30 time slots and games are no longer only starting on each hour mark, that balance will be even better.

The KO series is definitely good for every member of the site because, you've catered for every member by way of your buy-ins for each day of the series. Everyone can participate and invest a little or a lot yet, still have the chance of playing for a share of big GTD's and a decent payday.

Announcing the various series for the year was a great idea IMO. It spiked my interest in the site and I made a note of the dates for each series so, I can make sure i'm able to participate.

That announcement, along with the Software update and schedule revamp announcements has shown me that PP is really trying to up there game in 2018 and it's lead me to feel like i'd be more inclined to play more on the site from the 5th March (rather than elsewhere), once these changes come into affect and some schedule stability is in place.

It can be tough and near impossible to please everyone but, credit where credit is due, I think you and the team are doing a pretty good job in your attempts to make things better for everyone. Obviously there's still someway to go in regards to the finished product (especially in terms of the software etc...) but, you've got to start somewhere and you guys have. At least your listening to your players and trying to implement changes where you can, which is a lot more than can be said for a number of other poker sites out there.

+1 for the clocks, and current schedule is worst I have ever seen in Party ever imo. Even when they had those top25% people get paid MTTs prize structures it was much better than current crapshoot. Hope for the best and fear for the worst what I will see 5th of March.

But on positive note, one week long series with some special theme once a month when there's no Powerfest seems an improvement. Just wondering why no PLO / PLO8 (NLO8 is obviously better suited though) as they run pretty well being action games as PKO. But I guess it's always vanilla / PKO Hold'em only with very few expections. Not thrilled about PKO Hold'em series, but surely some people are and maybe Monster Series has something interesting to offer. Some Omaha Series even as a smaller wolf of the pack would be nuts of course.

the Slow version tourneys looks pretty good, i like it. its good to have one decent structured tourney in the schedule at every buyin level. just dont play it if you dont like it.
take a look at the stars marathon, most succesfull tourney on the site both during weekdays and weekends. and its running 14hours avg every single day till its finish.
ofc its not a normal tournament, and there is no need more then one in the schedule for one day (altough i would play more of it), but its good to have. also like the starting time, i think 1600CET is the perfect to start theese long tourneys. i also like the new schedule, way better then it was a month ago. i think the PP team is doing a great job, cant wait for the new software (and to bink something to have a proper br there, lol).

A few thoughts on the new schedule, i know March 5th is the completion of the schedule so hopefully my points are still being worked on.

It still looks overloaded with pko's, there are pko's at least every 2 hours, sometimes 3 hours in a row.

When i look at the tournaments such as "warm ups" "main events" and "daily specials", they don't feel like a "flagship" or a special tournament because they are identical to each other. What is so good about them when they have the same structure as all other tournaments? I would like to see each one have a different format which would make them stand out a little. Many of your tournaments have the same structure/format which is boring.

The 100k starting stacks, is there a need for this? With 100k stack it feels like i should be deep in a tournament, not at level 1.

I noticed at certain times in the low stakes schedule there are only $11 buy ins and $2 buy in, this gap is too big, there are no $5 mtts between 5-7pm uk time.

I just hate that tournaments only start at :00, i'm not sure how you can expect players to play many tournaments on your site like this, if a player starts registering at 5pm, how are they going to want to still register at 9 and 10pm and play until 5am every night?

anyway gl on upcoming schedule and series, nice live coverage too with the big tournaments and cash games.

What you fail to realize though is EVERY SINGLE TOURNAMENT is now a marathon. Sure having a couple is good. But 'by not playing it' I would literally have no trny's to reg whatsoever. Solid logic mate.

The previous schedule with the 30kgtd 109s rocky/uppercuts, 50k gtd 109s, 55 mini highrollers, 109 sunday title fight and 215 main event/warm up editions etc was the nuts, the past few weeks have been really disappointing to look at the schedule so i really hope for the best after march 5th.

I actually like some of the slower tournaments, but seriously, you cannot have every single tournament with 12 or 16 minute levels.

The concept of starting with slow mtts early on in the day and gradually speeding up some structures until you end with turbo's is great. The current execution is horrible though, you put powerfest structures into 1$ tournaments. Higher buyins play for more money and have smaller fields, maybe 109$+ can have 10 into 12min levels. The absolute slowest you should go for 22$ and lower with the current structure is 8-10-12 min levels.

If I started my session of mtt poker at 20:00 today, I would late reg the 18:00 tournaments (skip 19:00 because lateregging pko no thanks) but not reg the 20:00 slot at all. I'm willing to bet a lot of people who do reg the 20:00 slot aren't aware of just how slow the structure is and may regret if they're in it till 1am and don't cash, or are in it till 5am and cash very little. Isn't that absurd?

Thought most people would welcome the slow structures - rake is the same whether its a slow tournament or a hyper. Slow structure bigger advantage for PKOs id say.

I haven't fired any tournament since the changes because they're damn too long. It's okay to have nice structures but with party's field sizes run times should be reasonable.
