Good afternoon. I am a customer Poker Stars. I like to play tournaments Heads Up, but playing against one opponent, sometimes it's boring and I want to take part in a major tournament, they are called "Shootout", a big tournament, I mean the number of participants 100-200. These tournaments you, too organized, but they quite expensive for me, or too cheap, I know that you have a tournament for $ 215 and $ 22 with a good structure and a good number of participants, but the difference in buy ins is very high and I would like you had a tournament for 55 $, for example, with a guaranteed prize pool, ideally it would be great if it was a knockout tournament with a turbo structure \ reg speed and began to 20-24 hours Moscow time. Heads Up Poker is now becoming more popular and increase the number of tournaments designed for more players would be wise on your part. Players in any case will not pass them by, and will take part in them. The difference in $ 22 and $ 215 is very significant for players who wish to participate in such tournaments, for $ 215 is too expensive, $ 22 many are simply not interested. Me and my friends who also love to play Heads Up tournaments, liked the idea. It would be great if you could organize such a tournament and he passed every day. I remember at Full Tilt Poker was a tournament similar to what I described, he was part of a series of FTOPS, you may be able to do something like that and please their customers. Many fans of Heads Up Poker would be grateful to you and would participate in this tournament, besides the players who do not regularly play these tournaments must have participated in these tournaments, as Heads Up is one of the most exciting poker, it attracts many people. Thank you for your work, I hope you do not ignore this request and come up with something, thank in advance. Russian players and fans of Heads Up Poker.

Beautiful people, glamorous cash and MTT players enjoy life in a luxurious casino inside a skyscraper. Champagne is flowing, diamonds are dazzling. At the same time, somewhere deep below ground, where no sun ever shines the outcast play HUSNGs or whatever.

This is how I began to feel, good to see someone has put it into reasonable language.

I support the undertaking and ChicagoRy.

lets throw up a vote for the people who have been mentioned in a poll? so we can pick a representative.
01-16-2012 , 07:36 PM
I think ChicagoRy has been mentioned. Not sure
01-16-2012 , 08:52 PM
yeah ive quickly skimmed trough it seems like alot of people like Chiry for it (understandably, he isnt biased since he cant play stars, have been around forever, and knows a ton about husngs, coaching them+ running a coaching website. On top of that he knows alot of people and has wide connections and a good understanding of bussiness)

but some people also mentioned skai and xereles and some others

(which imo, arent quite as good a pick as chiry is) but then again i feel for things to be fair there should be a poll thats open for 3 days or something between those mentioned or something?

I think the ideas/communication with Stars is more important, working with them to find solutions for the room and players, than anything else.

I mean if some random new person became the guy between us and PokerStars, that's fine too, we can all still work to communicate ideas and concerns.

Stars may not be open to any rep, or may want a handful of reps, or may just want to use this thread as a public discussion on what we can do within our game, or something else entirely. I think the first step is getting somebody from PokerStars in here to discuss some of the questions and ideas in the community. I've shot a message to who I believe is the right person, so hopefully we get some good discussion going this week.

Please no polls that last for anything less than 2 weeks with proper pre-announcement. Not everyone checks the forum several times a week - people are busy at work, are on vacations or simply make so many VPPs early in the month that they can afford a two week break.

So about this idea ...

First of all, I had the impression that ChiRy did a fantastic job on this so far, any specific reason to make modifications ?

Well, maybe we should appoint a 2nd person who actually plays on Stars to do this together with him.

We should also keep in mind that this person should not only play poker, but also knows how to talk the business people and the media.

If you guys want to appoint one single contact person, then I'll definitely vote for ChiRy.

Although we need a good plan for this, the faster, the better.

Husng ladder would be a pretty quick way to give something to the hu community,and i'd imagine it would be relative easy to implement considering there are already ladders for stts/mtts.
Maybe some hu match for person ranked no1 in the ladder on each level,with PS pros for like 20ABI or something so that husngs get more exposure also.

In.

Adding promos that'd increase potential cashback to 40%+ would bring legions of new players, dumping ipoker/ongame...

let's add to this the idea of an option on the table to play higher against this opponent (maybe with checklist of what stakes available)
01-18-2012 , 09:49 AM
Loving these ideas, how r these not already implemented? I also vote chicagory.
01-18-2012 , 10:06 AM

i'm in
what I am concerned about is:
-an option to hide my account balance when rematch window appears
-uhmm.. that's all. I think lowering rake isn't that possible idea?

Free HUSNG tickets for depositors!
01-19-2012 , 03:23 AM
i'd like to see:

- some sort of leaderboard or promotion to gain more players
- lowering rake
- add more tables option (!!!!) and make a deal func (like ftp, but obv less important)
01-19-2012 , 03:41 AM
