I'm sure these have been mentioned but please fix

Stalling on the bubble. Need to go hand for hand on the bubble maybe a few away from the bubble as people's time banks appear to be huge

Fix the antes to where it's much faster

More Sunday featured events. Maybe a huge 55 or even better make the 109 bigger

Ability to open multiple lobbies.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get the satellites wins changed to coupons/tickets to target events or even better T$. I hate the way if I win a satellite to something it shoots me right into the target event even if it's 2 minutes before late reg ends and I start with under 10bb. This is just awful.

I may want to play sats to an tournament one night but not play the tournament until a day or two later. Or I may sat into the 50K but something comes up and I'm not able play.

I really hope this and preferred seating and the time bank issue are the first things to change.

omg please fix the way antes are taken. its totally unbearable. how the hell do mtt regs deal with it?
08-03-2013 , 11:49 AM
As a mtt and sit n go guy I play many tournaments at a time (during moss2 when schedule was worth it) I needed to open more than one mtt lobby at a time and a direct lobby lobby atleast if I click lobby from the actual mtt not take me back to the lobby of all tournaments I could register for.

It's tilting to have to goto my tournament then find the mtt that u need just to see lobby for payouts. worst is that it shows every mtt i played that day not only what's still running.

With revolution dropping all of its gtds now is the time to improve your schedule and take some of there migrating players.

+1 to changing the start time to 5pm for Sunday Major
+1 to lowering rake in hyper sng
+1 to adding more turbos and hypers on mtt schedule

Honestly I don't think your site is ready for a $500 buyin event maybe if you have it once in a while during a series, with that said run some kind of online series more then once a year. Maybe add a MTT yearly leaderboard that awards a Punta Cana prize package

uh oh. we have a troller who wants to give spelling lessons when there are much more important issues to be addressed. I doubt if you're fooling anyone here.

I see There is already changes made to the tournament's on the site, I see nothing but good things coming from this. I am glad to see you guys are listening to your players and making the right moves to be the best poker site for the players and not thinking about how you can just get more out of the players.
08-04-2013 , 06:53 PM
what changes have been made so far?
08-04-2013 , 11:08 PM
Here's my opinion of the most needed changes some to do with MTTs some with software:

1. Preferred seating
2. Stop showing ante collection - I'd rather watch a snail cross the sidewalk
3. Add more low buy in tournaments
4. Change payout structure to pay no more than top 15%
5. Improve the satellites
6. Add a lot more MTTs in general with varied structures and buy ins
7. Allow more than one lobby opened at a time
8. Auto time bank but with the option to have it or not
9. Change to tournament dollars or sat tickets for satellite wins instead of being shot into target satellite/tournament
10. Add a 250/500 level to all MTTs
11. All or at least most of the tournaments play way too shallow at the final table so maybe adding more levels or decreasing the late reg/re-entry time would help, one or the other. PokerStars and iPoker have 350/700 and 700/1400 etc. this would really help the overall structure imo.
12. 3 O.S.S. and 3 M.O.S.S a year please, or at least 3 O.S.S. and 2 M.O.S.S in between

I'm sure there is more but that's all I can think of at the moment.
08-04-2013 , 11:19 PM
Definitely have the $27.50 10k every night. I'm sure it would absolutely crush the guarantee on Sundays. Maybe have the $5.50 3.5k every night as well? Or even make it a 2k or something to test the waters and adjust accordingly.

The structures are great, I love 5k/15 mins. The 50k structure is also pretty solid imo, but as others have said start it a little earlier?

Lastly, any plans on having another OSS/MOSS? Those were great and drew some solid fields. With re-entries there could be some niceeeee prize pools.
08-04-2013 , 11:40 PM
More PLO Mtts plz
08-05-2013 , 11:38 AM
Add one new tournament a day. STARTING TODAY!

Run a $12 1k every half hour
Run a $4 rebuy every half hour

You've hit the nail on the head with these points... I used to grind cash, stt' and mtt's so i do know what people like and what makes things easier and better for the players. I will be pushing so many things to happen but this cannot happen overnight unfortunately and as stated previously i cannot give you a time frame. I really am working hard to get these implemented ASAP.

There are also other things that i have had ideas for...

At the moment i am concentrating on the stt's..
very soon there will be...
1) a variance of stts
2) New rake for the hypers and lowered for the $2.40 hu hyper
3) I am looking at the blind structures and will change them slightly
4) Also i need to clean up the lobby for stts!!

Everything i am doing is to benefit players which i obviously hope will benefit the site!!!!!!!!

Def need to lower the sunday major to a start time of between 3-5. By 7pmest if im running bad im not going to reg a tourney that may take 7-8hrs and be 1 tabling. Most people are registering the most tourney between 3 and 6 on Sundays.

This for sure 5pm est would be ideal for the 50K

Also I definitely think running the $27.50 10K every night of the week would be great as well as the $5 $2.5K with Sunday's gtd on both being higher. I think the $27.50 10K could cover a $15K to $20K gtd and the $5 at least the current 3.5K if not $5K.

I really think the $27.50 $10K would do much better if it started around 7 pm est instead of 9 pm. I runs really late for people who work and I've heard many players say they don't play it during the week because it runs so late. I think 8 pm would be okay for the $5 $2.5K

I think you should also move the Sunday $5 $3.5K up to 6 pm for the same reasons.

If the goal is to get more recreational players playing these tournaments most rec players work and the late start times are a big deterrent for them.

That would be real helpful. The other level which I've been lobby for is 600/1200. So instead of 500/1000 then 750/1500 then 1k/2k, make it 500/1000, 600/1200, 800/1600 then 1k/2k.

Everyone's stack basically gets cut in half in a 15 minute period (or thirty minute period depending on how you look at it).

You have 20bb late in the 500/1000 period, blind go up you steal a couple blinds (or win a small pot and loss a small pot), then the blinds go up again and you have 8-12bbs.

The extra 15 minutes of play would help final tables become a little deeper stacked and would not add much to the total tourney time.

One more thing and this is a big one:

Load the MTT schedule a least a week out please. Not loading until the day of blows.

Agreed with Diamonddixie. The late night tournaments don't even pop up until the end of the day so that I do not know all the games running unless I memorized the entire schedule. Please address this!

+1. At a minimum every tournament scheduled to go off for the next 24 hours from w/e hour it is server time at that particular moment, should be displayed in the MTT lobby at all times.

really like the addition of the .50 Hyper turbos.

Better than the .11 Merge counterpart in many different aspects.


For some reason they really help me when I'm tilting.
08-07-2013 , 04:14 PM
Guys,

FYI i am trying a turbo tournament tonight at 19.30 EDT.
$5 buy $1,500 GTD in with re entry. 4000 starting stack. 5 min blinds. Late reg for an hour.
Again i have played around with the blind structures so there will be 2 levels introduced before the late reg ends. You will find it will play a lot deeper for a turbo.

This will be the kind of structure i want to make for all tournies so check it out!!

GL to anyone who plays and let me know your thoughts.
08-07-2013 , 06:08 PM
No Wednesday nickel ($5.50 $2.5K) tonight?

One more thing software wise, the fonts on the stack, bet and pot sizes are way too small and really hard to see when the tables are small.

Everything is perfect. Structures are great. Don't change anything. This is the best site I've ever played on, not close.
