*** TCOOP 2017 -- Official Feedback Thread *** - Page 6 - MTT Poker Strategy

NLO8 offering in general looks good. Might give it a decent shot, although my main aim is another series. One would hope more 8-max or 9-max though for turbos.

The satellites have been expanding as the series draws nearer (just like always). A big expansion is coming in the next day or so, and is in fact what I've been working on all week, getting it together.

I'm not sure what you mean. Happened to them?

There was a big expansion yesterday. Another one is pending, including a massive rotation of Big Splash satellites to various targets. Having said that, there are plenty of Big Splash, Splash, and Little Splash satellites in the client right now. In fact, there are eight in progress at the moment.

General questions for you guys on the Phase Events and satellites...

For the Events, which is easier to read?
..
1. TCOOP-62 [Day 1AQ], $1,000,000 Guaranteed
2. TCOOP-62 [Day 1-AQ], $1,000,000 Guaranteed
3. TCOOP-62 [Day 1.AQ], $1,000,000 Guaranteed
There is a dedicated tab for the Day 1s. Should the satellites to them appear in that tab, also?
..
1. Yes, that would be convenient.
2. No, that would be a real mess.

1.1
all options are close really imo, but No1 would be easier to use with the search function at the lobby

and 2.2

Thank you for the kind words. All I've ever wanted to do in this gig is provide opportunities for people to enjoy themselves.

1.1 of 1.2 seem fine and 2.2

Also, I'm assuming there will be deadline sats. I mean why woudn't you. But could you put those in a separate tab, really liked that in previous series.

Also, great work so far.. !! Kudos!

The schedule's quite packed at the moment. The ending rotations for Events 01 through 05 were added about an hour ago.

Bryan, has an older 2017 TCOOP version (with 20M instead of 15M guaranted) been posted on your blog/website a couple of weeks ago ?

Just noticed on my spreadsheet I dont have the right guarantees. 750k for #01 and 3M for Main Event for example.

Curious to how I got that, still looks nice but 20M guarantee was sexy !

the guarantees are gonna get crushed in the 2 day events
i think the nlo8 could get 500k
and the holdem 1.5m
prizepools
overall the series looks great

Very poor selection of x3 sats to event one close to event, barely any.Im pretty sure most ppl would prefer more x3 2r sats to event 1, and less sats to round 1s.

Also would of been more beneficial to run only x3 and x2 sats as the x4 ones barely create any seats.

At least if your gonna continue to scam us with rake on rebuys, offer us a better selection of sats, specially for the opening event of this series.

There was an incorrect version posted initially. This was fixed almost immediately, so I suppose that you must have gotten it during the brief period that the wrong information was posted.

We'll see. I'm hoping for a big series, with lots of opportunities to cash for many players.

Bryan, no more 36man shootout are created for event #01.

Btw how long do you plan on letting them play out ? 1h30mn into the events ? Most late regs are 2h iirc for tcoop.

The settings were changed to 3/6/9 quite a while ago. With the extreme depth of the levels, when the bubble burst at 18:07:25 ET, the tournament was in the late stages of Level 22 (350/700, a90). The average stack at that point was 84,143... 120 big blinds. I'm very pleased with how Event 05 ran, personally.
