A holdem reg will not suddenly change his game to omaha.

While i like it, I do find it weird that this is the first change to husngs since the start of this topic, given that a 100 things have been suggested more then omaha hypers

(not trying to bitch or anything)
just curious, any word on any of the other suggestions?

I was wondering are Pokerstars planning on adding HUSNGS in British Pounds? As I've just noticed there's a £3.50 HUSNG available. Also there seems to be a couple of other 1 table sngs running in pounds.

yeah but I believe they are working on it and because of the bigger traffic they are going more carefully about this imo

hope to see more new things soon though and really hoping for more HUMTT also

This has probably been mention in a thread somewhere but I couldn't find it.. Is there anyway to prevent the disconnection message from popping up every single time you register for a husng?

There is a bug that occurs, whereby if you close the lobby window too soon after registration is full, your table does not open up and you are blinded down.
Please fix this.

this is so untrue it's laughable... yes NL omaha changes the game a bit, but saying it becomes unproftiable is lol. Also, there are plenty of hands that are 70/30 and 60/40 favorites in Omaha. You just don't get the 80/20s. Big deal.

I have been thinking of writing a piece (elsewhere) on how tournament Omaha should all be NL. Its just so ******ed playing 10/15bb omaha PL (or any tournament game for that matter). That is how NL holdem came about. Tournaments allowed people to play the "higher risk" form of holdem without risking too much money. And it is my understanding that the reason Omaha was made pot limit (after limit) is mainly to keep games going in casinos so people dont bust as fast, etc. In tournaments that is certainly not what anyone really wants/needs.

I was wondering if Pokerstars could add a Turbo & Hyper Turbo 16 and 32 man husng. Also add an 8 man husng as well. The current 16 & 32 man husngs dont really fill up as their regular speed.

Pokerstars invites 3 players representives to their headquarters in april. 1 for cash, mtt, sng each. I would suggest we lobby hard to get one of our husng guys in. What do you think?

I read in the list that some1 said about lowering the rake or trying to get a way to get more reg on reg action.

I think a way to do this is at the end of a game have a option to play a set of games vs this person over x amount of tables. Get a reduction on rake for the rest of the set if its over a certain amount of games.

To add to the above idea can we make side bets over these sets of games, so both bet $100 or say 10 buyins max, best out of 15, 25, 35 games ect. To stop people abusing the spirit of the idea keep it in buyins and have a max ammount you can bet. The fish might even like these sets of games as well, and some regs might want to play if they can win 10 buyins in 25 or 35 games.

This wouldn't really make sense, given that they're already giving us 'special treatment' in this thread. As well as having an official husng rep (is that actually ChicagoRy now, or still not official yet?)

Of course, if they don't come through on anything then we'll be justifiably pissed off, but let's give them a chance and let those other huge chunks of the poker community have their voice heard too.

We dont get special treatment. There are similar threads for the other games in their forums. And in january there was already a meeting for the cashgame guys.
Its just a chance for us to make our case heard even louder and someone can actually see some of their numbers and ideas and what is possible and what not.
I think thats a chance we should not miss.
