Also, why are all three PLO8 events on the same day at basically the same time?? You have 6 PLO events over 5 days. We want the same for PLO8.

Thanks!

The 45man sng lobbies (at least the $5s) have no average stack slot.. but instead have spots for addon payments and rebuy payments.

Also.. should just change the info tab up just a bit in mtts/sngs. Instead of:

Your position: 1
Players left: 23/45
watching: 0 (lobby)(help)

Have something like:

Your position: 1/(number of players remaining)
Average Stack:
Watching: x (lobby)(help)

It sucks compared to solid card 4-color decks. Colored space > whitespace.

I would like to see a $5 regular deepstack tourney with 15 minute levels added around 9-11 pm. Also I really enjoy the 12pm $11 4k starting stack, please add one in the evening.
02-15-2012 , 01:35 PM
was screwed by the rebuy fup on the last hand before the break
02-16-2012 , 02:24 AM
Who else would love to see the nightly $22 owl have a higher starting stack? 2k isnt enough, bump it to 3k, 4k would be perfect though.
02-16-2012 , 02:45 AM
I would really like it if more SnG type satellites for some of the bigger tournies were added (Midweek Monster/$125k/Hi-Roller). There are some sporadic ones here and there but they're all pretty much ST's. Add some that are just Turbo or even regular and they would attract more attention and be played more.

That's a great idea, make it 3k or better yet 4k like the 12:00pm $11 4k tourney.
02-16-2012 , 03:56 PM
Could you add a $109 FO tourny? As far as I know the only $109's that run throughout a week are the $125k on Sundays, a daily $109 1r1a at 18:00 and I think maybe a $109 FO on Sundays. There should be a FO that runs at least 2-3 days during the week.

AUTO REBUY/ADD ON!

Would love some more Pot Limit Omaha tournaments. The only one I currently play is the 10r 1.2k guaranteed. Would like two more with guaranteed prize pools of 1k or more. I suggest adding a 5r and a $22 freezeout.

The Sunday 125k gtd starting stack should be increased to 7.5k or 10k.

The Night Owl starting stack should be 3k minimum or you should just make it a turbo.
02-17-2012 , 01:59 PM
Would you please fix the player notes box mouseover display? You can't enter more than a few lines of comments, because it adds 4 line breaks in between each line and some random line breaks in the middle of lines as well.

Has a single one of the suggestions over the last 100 pages been implemented? Please be honest here about whether Merge is really working on anything, or if this is just a thread for players to spout off and feel like they're being heard.

This isn't going to be popular with some: RPM/Merge needs to enforce chat bans. I do not care if someone tells me to go fµck myself etc... What I do care about is when guys repeatedly berate fish/recreational/new depositors. The type of chat that occurs all day long. I don't really care if it is a slight comment but when someone goes on and on in a hate speech/racist/ threatening manner something needs to be done about it. The only reason I bring this up is that it chases away fresh money to the site. If someone goes on and on also quoting someone's bad stats from ptr or opr it can really lead a new depositor to really reconsider making new deposits. These idiots are bad for the the long-term sustainabilty of the game.

I have a few recommendations on how to deal with this that doesn't require a chat ban button on every table and endless emails/live chat time. I will put them together and post and/or pm them to you later.

Allowing us to alter card faces with 3rd party addons would also be acceptable.

lol i so against this- we are playing poker, an adult game.. there will be harsh words and actions said. You dont go to a bar and complain you dont like the drinking and smoke around ya, do ya?

Fish dont leave because of bad chat, lol if someone played 20k games, and you say"god you are a fn moron" you think they are really gonna packup and say to theselves"oh i shouldnt play this guy thinks im bad"

also most fish dont even know its possible to lookup stats, and also every time fish get insulted they ust think its the person being a poor sport. losing chat for losing your temper online???????????? THAT would be ridiculous, if someone beats you in a big pot you should be able to speak your mind to that person.

If those people are SO offended of someone online insulting them they can turn the chat off

personally i useda berate alot but i dont anymore because their responses are just so out of whack it tilts me even more,just last night i had a guy call an allin with K3 off, no odds just the worst player imagineable, when i started to question him i thought:this isnt gonna get my chips back so why do it? ALso his response will just get me in a bad mood and anyway i did ask him anyway what he was thinkingwas and he said"AK never wins it sucks and thats what i put you on" funny thing was he was serious

Where did you get me saying a reg player with 20k hands. I said, "fish/recreational/new depositors." A reg like you and I should be able to deal with this. New players who bring in new money to the site may not be able to, thus not redepositing. Regs generally do not bring in new money to the site as they do not need to deposit multiple times, if they are a winning player/breakeven, even slight losing if they have rakeback.

Fresh money is the major source of revenue for regs. The viewpoint that f()ck them if they cannot handle it, don't play if you cannot handle it, is moronic.

Questioning a bad player and how the **** can he play so bad is just really dumb.

It's one thing to use curse words in normal adult conversation.

It's another to repeatedly call someone a ******, ******, ****, ****, wish cancer/death by grease fire/castration, etc.

Just because you're 21+ doesn't give you the right to verbally abuse another player. If nothing else, it creates an unpleasant environment for all who are playing, and no, the mute button is absolutely not a remedy for this.

That's not the point. First off, verbal abuse is unacceptable on principle alone. But the real issue is it serves zero purpose other than to make the game unpleasant to play. The second someone opens their mouth to anger someone who just wants to play cards/gamble/be left alone is the second they become less likely to rebuy and/or deposit again when the money runs out.

Ignorance is not an excuse.

Absolutely not. Vulgar languange and whatnot is cool with me, and I'll mute you if I find you annoying, but verbal abuse and racial epithets are unacceptable, period.

I can tell you right now if I didn't make money playing online poker, I would've left the tables and never came back after the first session, because there are some real cowards/*******s out there. Some of the things that have been said I've seen end in death. I hope for those ignorant people they don't have the gall to say the same things to another's face, because I've seen people killed over less.

If a player is making the incorrect decision, then you want him to do so. If he is making the correct decision, then you have no right to complain.

What gives any person the right to spew hatred on someone else doing nothing but playing a game of poker, and 100% by the rules?

Don't get me wrong, I get pissed and tilty too, but I'd never abuse another player for bad play. Scream at the screen, bang something that makes a loud noise, go to the gym, just don't do something to another player that is completely unwarranted.

If someone talks ****, I'll give it right back, but there is no reason to gloat unprovoked...It serves no purpose to educate a fish no matter how dumb he is, because some fish are actually intelligent enough to realize who knows what they're doing and who doesn't. They will soon learn how to correctly play, and no longer will you post a win rate against them.

Besides, if a player is making lol******ed decisions, then it's obvious he's either never played before and has no clue or he simply doesn't care. Either way, you're supposed to smile and nod not question it as though it's some travesty that you ran bad on a 66/33 favorite AIPF.

But I digress...I'm glad you understand there's no point to questioning why an ignorant person does ignorant things. I think it's a shame that too many people still don't, and choose to make others miserable when they themselves are miserable too. Then again, that might be a reason why poker will always be a profitable game to someone.

Please add $30-$40 Double Up tables. There is nothing in between $20 and $54.

Leroy-Teflon, lemme say that I do not talk to people vulgarily and say things like"F you suck my ....." and those sorts of things, I agree those types of insults/sayings towards someone is disruptive and just not needed.

Calling someone a clown or fish, or stating they are a losing player should be all fair game imo. ESPECIALLY if a bad player ever rubs it in that you lost or says a stupid comment, they deserve to be told off, altho i agree it doesnt get chips back so whats the point to tell people off?It wil just get you madder at their stupid statement back.

I just dont believe people really decide to not deposit no more because of a punk online. i bet its a small %, but to take someones chat forever would just be crazy i think. stars did it ok with the warnings, because its ok to lose your cool once in a awhile.
