Is there any support for this idea?

-Nerfing the amount of time per decision.
-Buffing the duration of timebank.

My opinionated reasoning:

-Recs don't want to a slow paced game. I am a regular and am bored to tears when my opponent requires 10-15 seconds per decision.
-It is unreasonable for a player to take 15 seconds to limp then 15 seconds to fold to a raise preflop.
-Buffing the timebank will balance out for when you actually require 15+ seconds for a decision.
-Decreasing time per decision increases pressure on players relying on charts.

My proposal:

-Decrease amount of time to per decision by 2 seconds (15s -> 13s).
-Increase timebank by 10s.

I don't think a drastic change would be welcome. Taking baby steps will give plenty of time to acclimate. I don't think recreationals will oppose this. According to Stars, recreationals tend to 1 table. They also play reasonably fast and rarely take the full 15 seconds per decision.

Let me provide Baard with a translation in case he reads this.

The meaning of 'nerf'
The meaning of 'buff'

7% rake? Though of course pretty absurd rb is possible on ipoker.

Yeah, same payout structure / rake as all the other stakes. The 80/10/10 split starts at 50x for €20 and 20x for €50.

I believe poker sites are generally in favor of decreasing the amount of time it takes a player to act.

They often focus on regulars that multi table a lot though. I believe plenty of casual players take awhile to act, even if one tabling, and that is likely why they haven't limited the time even more per your idea.

But it is in the site's best interest to have the time to act be only the minimum length needed to ensure the casual player has enough time to act, and same for the timebank. In a perfect world, the sites will find this length on their own.

You are studying when to raise, fold, call, etc.
But you see - the big money is in knowing when to click the REGISTER button.

I have a talent for hitting big multipliers but finishing 2nd-3rd in those tourneys. Finishing in any place in a 12000x $15 spin would put a happy end to my poker career, but my relationship with Stars' RNG is not warm enough. So I'll try to ship €16K for the 1st place in a €20 Twister instead.

At this point, I'd be happy just to prove to myself that my decision to start grinding poker was profitable at all, i.e. to bring my net worth in $ (damaged by life expenses and the depreciation of €) back to its May 2012 size.

Oops, I meant 'prove to my real-life environment if they ever find out what I was doing in these years' - I don't have to prove anything to myself, of course.

Fair enough, although I'm guessing if you binked even $15k it would probably make you hungrier.

New PKR (MPN) €1 to €50 Jackpot Sit & Go's.

3max hyper; blind levels similar to PS but with 10% ante (extra level at 25/50).
Winner take all until 100x and higher, where it's 50/30/20.
Rake is 5.17% (another 5% goes to a progressive component for the top-tier prize pool).
Multipliers 2x, 3x, 6x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 500x, 5000x+progressive.
Progressive jackpot is 30,000x on average, so 35,000x on average for the top tier multiplier. glgl!
