i would like to see a ante up 100% progressive ko bubble rush win the button tournament
this way you can do all things in one tournament which leaves more room for normal mtts

i enjoy ante up, I would be disappointed to see it left off the schedule. COOPs are the only time where ante up tourneys get sufficient GTDs to make them worth playing but they are very fun and strategic.

100% PKO is not great, I would rather not have it there during SCOOP. Works better in TCOOP where stacks are shallow.

Bubble rush could be alright for SCOOP but maybe something like 8-10 min levels until ITM then 20, not at 3-5 min levels to start.

You guys act as if it the entire series was 100% PKO, it's one tournament out of 56, just don't play it if you don't like it.

I agree that bubble rush should be regular speed until ITM, then slow after ITM! Not turbo from the start.

The tuesdays and thursdays are really lame. 11/109/1050 adds nothing to the regular schedule. Please change it to 11/530/2100 or 11/700/2100 to give us something special to play, this is what SCOOP is for.

They are the only NLHE events on those days besides the phase event, so for people that play NLHE only tuesdays and thursdays will be nothing special compared to their regular grind.

Already happened thankfully

  • Event 16 changed to Regular speed (not Slow!) and its start time has changed to 17:00.
  • Event 26 changed from NLO8 6-Max Turbo to 8-Max Regular speed (not Slow!).
  • The final two Events on 13 May have been moved up 30 minutes.
  • Event 28 is no longer Re-Entry.
  • Event 30's start time has changed to 15:30 and its buy-in has increased to $11/$109/$1,050.
  • Event 31's buy-in has increased to $27/$215/$2,100.
  • Event 35 and 42 have had their buy-in levels increased to $27/$215/$2,100.
  • Event 37 is now Re-Entry.
  • Event 38's buy-in has been reduced to $109/$1,050/$10,300. At $10,300, some of the many players who play the $2,100 PLO Event each year can still feasibly take a shot. If this tournament is successful, we'll consider increasing the buy-in for future Series.
  • Event 43 has changed from Stud to NL Draw.
  • Event 46 changed to Turbo Zoom (previously Hyper-Turbo).
  • Events 47 and 48 have had their starting times changed to 10:30 and 12:00, respectively.
  • Event 56 will be a Player's Choice Event at the $11/$109/$1,050 buy-in level. It will be a one day Event.

I just dont understand why there are turbos/hypers at all in the SCOOP schedule! It should be reg/slow speed only!

This thread is merely here to give the illusion that they give a f.uck about the players opinions.

Am not surprised by Luke's lack of response. You only have to look at the regular MTT thread (where Luke is also the Rep) to see that, lack of response is the 'norm' for Luke.

IMO - he's made a sub-standard regular schedule and now he's made a sub-standard SCOOP series.

No point complaining about it though. It is what it is and it's being done for a reason...

Hey all,

The process is still moving forward, even if we are slipping on some self-imposed deadlines...

All of your feedback is being read and considered, so please keep it coming! The feedback we receive here is helping to guide decisions and inform changes that are still being made to the schedule. We are aiming to finalize the schedule very soon, so after another day of feedback, I will send the schedule to my colleagues before posting the final version here.

Thanks for cherry picking on comments to reply to, some of the people here were naive enough that you would stop doing it.

CET, and last time the schedule was presented only in ET.

Thinking it would probably be nice to post it in AWST as well (Australian western standard time) or something. That way we have the schedule for at least 3 "big" parts of the world
