We seem to have been starved of SNG content especially verses other forms of poker and Collin does a manful job but he cant produce video after video all on his own. I see that Duderino is an addition but it has been said that he is doing vids for some time but I have yet to see them.
I did PM admin about the lack of content for us SNG'ers but alas no reply.
So will we as SNG players be getting more content?
No worries, you'll be getting access to quality videos from Duderiono or another winning low-stakes pro shortly.

Re: Stoxpoker And CardRunners Merge!

Seems to me that people like myself who are members of both sites are getting screwed, especially if the videos from each site going to the other site replace normal new content! Additionally I'd rather just get my $100 back than 3 free months on stox...

Re: Stoxpoker And CardRunners Merge!

The cross-promotional content will not be replacing any normally scheduled content on either website, it's strictly bonus.

Re: Stoxpoker And CardRunners Merge!

So exactly how much does a dual membership for 12 months cost?

Thanks

Re: Stoxpoker And CardRunners Merge!

If the low limit stuff from Cardrunners is now going to be on Stox doesn't this mean that CR members will have to pay to join Stox to get what they were getting previously from CR alone?

So basically StoxPoker for low/mid stakes and Card Runners for high stakes then? Not sure I can see the logic in this - why would anyone subscribe to both sites at the same time? Also, that surely means that current low/mid stakes players at CR will be better off at Stox and vice versa, which means they need to cancel their current memberships and open new ones.

Sorry, I might be missing something here but I can't see the benefits to the existing members of either site.

We have a new landing page we hope to launch in a couple days that will reflect the correct pricing structure. The exact structure that is correct is outlined in our press releases but definitely includes no sign-up fee.

Discounts for either site if you have a subscription at the other one.

Even more coaches at Stoxpoker, even more videos.

You get more stuff for less money.
LOL - Bryce, I believe you truly do have a talent for teaching!

See how whenever BRYCE explains something, it all seems SO simple and logical...at least for a little while!!

The pricing of each entity is more what reflects the limit, but stox will still have all the high limit content/coaches it has had in the past and CR will continue to produce the same amount of lower limit stuff as it has as well. You can take your pick.

nope, no current CR instructors/videos will be moved to ONLY stoxpoker. Stoxpoker is getting 10 CR vids that have already been released at CR and will be available at stox and vice versa, but otherwise nothing is getting replaced to the other site.

The cheapest way for a person who is not currently subscribed to either site Would be to buy 12 months at CR (336) and add 12 months at stox (150) for a total cost of $486.

Re: Stoxpoker And CardRunners Merge!

Surely if your dropping the $99 sign up fee then the cheapest way is...

Sign up for one month of stox $25, sign up for 12 months of CR @ 22X12 = 264
let the stox membership stop and sign up again for $150.

$150
$264
£25

=$439

its a right mess, I know that much! Sooner or later someone is going to release all the details in black and white explaining exactly what the $'s are and how to get them. Until that time its pretty much guesswork on the part of the customers.

Hang on, this just is not fair at ALL!!!

CR members,
can upgrade their account to another 12 months at CR for $200
can join stox for 12 months for $150
total for an existing CR member going dual = $350 for the next 12 months.

Stox memebers,
can upgrade their account to another 12 months at stox for $240
can join cardrunners for 12 months for $264
total for an existing stox member going dual = $504 for the next 12 months.

WTF!!! same company, same package but two vastly different rates to the customers.

Told ya, right mess it is.
it actually makes more sense to dump stox and join CR and then rejoin stox. Thats just mad crazy.

Re: Stoxpoker And CardRunners Merge!

I like all the new coaches and **** that stox has added, but i must say im disappointed w/ their decision... not that I can do anything about it. I dont understand why they would go and change everything on us like this; stox is like home to me, and now everything is all ****ed up

Everything you have and expect is still there - there will just be more of it. What are your concerns? Can you elaborate?
