Luke please remove those 100% KO. Make them 75% if you want, but not 100%...

Why? Amaya and Luke has been known to utilise this strategy. Two steps backwards -> see community's uproar -> one step forward. Please don't let them get away like that.

I remember some guy posted the pics of upcoming stars promo (possibly leaked) in the stars promo thread. One of the upcoming games was Spin & KO

Found the link of that post: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...postcount=1992

Has MTT traffic ever been this bad?
I've noted that like the last two sundays has been extremely poor with few runners across the field, why is this?

Not just on stars but on all sites afaik
Everyone chilling/charging for SCOOP, or whats going on.. ?

That was my mistake. I thought that picture is a bounty builder.

Guess Pokerstars have a plan to turn poker into roullete in the near future.
They're replacing skill with luck.
All we can do about this is to replace Amaya with other platforms , such as 888.

I take a little break and what's happened to the structure of the Bigs?!
Played a $44 at the weekend and you could finish in the top 10% without even doubling your buy-in, due to 19% being paid! Is this normal now??
(Make final three tables to receive exactly three times buy-in, yaay)

Bigs structures has been destroyed since the "new schedule" came out.
Shallow stacks (20bb avg) after 2hours of play and then its a flipfest for the rest of the tournament. Not even sunday structures are deeper as it used to be before.

probably 100 regs posting here with great suggestions but stars rep aka Luke is not listening and keeps making changes without discussion it before (recently turned 320 SKO into 100% PKO which everybody hates).. thats just a short summary of whats going

Microlevel 2/3 of all MTTs all day long are Turbos nowadays. Pathetic!

He's busy with SCOOP (he's in charge of all COOP's now that Bryan has left)...

Still haven't had a refund for the disconnection issues over 2 weeks ago. Sent an email to support 3 days ago and no response.

I blinded out from chip leader (or second chippie) with 20 left and 9 (I think) paid in a 55 NLO8 to out of the money without playing a hand. Pretty sure that qualifies as "materially affected".

Just the best people.

Yeah I also noticed that when we went into the money the average stack size only had an 'm' of 10, so you're right about it being a flipfest. Thanks for heads-up about Sundays as well. Time to play my regular tournaments at a certain other site beginning with P...

Not sure if right thread, but RapeStars is worse than ever before. A friend of a friend shipped the Thursday Thrill a couple of months ago for like 76k$. He has been struggling to get the money out from Stars because of Norwegian tax-laws etc. After dealing with this for a while, and finally being ready to withdraw, Stars strikes again.

They have monitoring his old playing history and finding he has been playing some MTTs before he was 18. He has over 1500 games played since July 2016, the month where his first MTT is recorded. They froze his account and later told him they will let him keep his account, but they are taking all the money. This is so ****ed up. More details to come...

Start a thread here when you have more details.

This is the wrong place really. Sorry to hear but hardly shocking, don't expect anything from the new stars and you will never be disappointed.

He should not play before 18. Seems fair.

Nonsense. This is a freeroll scenario for Stars. Maybe their security should try to catch offenders of the T&C's regardless if they win or lose. Waiting for a guy to get a big win and scoop up the money is wrong.

btw did anyone get a prize bump in that Thrill? Didn't think so.

Pokerstars, Please bring back some of the following
3.30 8 max, 2.20 6 max, more 2.20 deep stacks, 3.30 or any 4 max other than the 4R one. Would certainly make the site more fun seeing as there is nothing to play
