triple no

there are no antes in pot limit games, am i wrong? i dont think its a good idea, just because bubbles take awhile. Isn't the lack of antes a great thing because you can abuse this bubble?

yes

Fixing troublesome FLO8 Weeklies

The little $82 Weekly doesn't seem to be sustainable. But also the $215 could do with a boost.
Possible solutions:

1)
let them start 1h earlier
add satellites

2)
remove the $82 to avoid any more headache once and for all
leave the $215 as is

3)
remove the $82
convert the $215 into a "$530 Sunday FLO8 [12.5K Gtd]"


I'd probably vote for the most drastic change 3)
I assume pretty much all $215 players would also play a $530, plus it might attract O8 / Mixed games cash players.

It would also have to play earlier to grab those cash game players

The n-stack format finally needs to be added for a daily and a weekly PLO and NLO8 event. The format and variant are a perfect match, and these MTT's would be crazy good and enjoyable, if it's a 5x or even 10x stack for one buy-in. Considering playabiltiy for the new target audience of PS, as well as their bottom line, I think blind-levels could(/should) be made 8min, so that people don't play these forever before raking elsewhere.

A daily 11$ and a weekly 55$ n-stack (5x or 10x stack / when Hot11 and 55Bigger start) would be nice. With 8 min blinds starting at 10/20, and not too step blind-levels, I think 1K chips for 1 of the 5-10 stacks would be bottom of my okay-I-play-range.

There are:
$1.10+R NL Courchevel (3x turbo) at 21:05
$1.10+R NL Omaha (3x turbo) at 21:35

please add:
$1.10+R PLO (3x turbo) starting about +- 20:00 please.

Please add more levels to the 530 o8, at least t500 needs to happen but 700 and other levels deep would be better too. T500 please!!!

Same for PLO 530 / +1
Short before the bubble, it's even worse in the Omaha 530's than in any NLHE

#T500

Also again can we get another HS red o8 tournament, the 6m spkos are doing great on the weekend rolling out a 320 plo and 320 nlo8 would be great! I mean or just a couple of 320 6ms but Pko seems to be really popular and will bring the fields in. Also how there's no HS major 6m PLO Sunday tournament is beyond me, if not willing to change the weekly PLO add a 6m PLO and a 6m PLO8 major surely? There's a reason cash runs 6m in these games and the coops as I mentioned get huge fields these will be popular if added if they're 6m and big enough. Coop proves people will play them.

This Bigger buyins for 08 and plo have demand.

Again the structure of the 530 needs to be fixed, I overlooked the jump from 25/50 to 50/100 is also too big of a leap especially relative to be average stack at that point in the tournament. Throw in 30/60, 40/80, add t500 and 700 some others and make it 15 minute levels perhaps? I know it's not a priority but it's been a week since I posted and there has been no response or suggestion that this problem has been addressed in either 530? Plus bump again on the additions I suggested previously. A response would be great .

No one gets a response here anymore. Your better off pm'ing pokerstars luke. I messaged bryan a while ago and he does not deal with the thread anymore and luke is..

We gotta keep bumping too then.

you gotta do something for the mixed games imo, something like Gotw @FTP

run like 1$ 36man hypershootouts for the 27$ daily and 3$/36 to the 82$ weekly all week long and maybe some happy hours at cash games for one specific game per week

every mixed game variant should have a 2x turbo rebuy format at low stakes. It helps get more players into the game.

GOTW need to be implemented for long term growth /sustainability

+1 to GOTW

BUMP Getting slightly silly no response from rep? Good idea on the GOTW it'll be huge on stars.

So 888 have added new PLO and PLO8 tournaments, any chance stars want to take any notice of the mixed game regs?
