I know traffic isn't high enough and blah blah, but when you got news players asking which site you like more and you say Carbon just because they pay out more in GTDs, it's very sad because ACR is better but, GTD wise ACR needs to step up their game.
Games like 50GTD???? Really how about minimum GTD tourney should be around $500 GTD daily and nightly tournies around 1k gtd. I know there is a 1k GTD nightly, but again IMO that should be a 3k nightly and the ever other 2k should be a 4k or 5k.
Do away with 1 dollar buy ins and make your minimum 2 bucks and up, probably can GTD more that way.
yes the micro/low MTT sched is abysmal IMO the lobby is 80%+ satties into r/a or super long re entry events all of which are high variance by nature. There's no way to build a roll they just want us all to depo and play the hr's lol I think idk. I think last i checked i could get maybe 6 games regd in like 8 hrs reg time with decent structures. How about copy Intertops mtt schedule or make something similar and add to it as it clears the guarantees? or run the stuff thats in the lobbies in the middle of the night to the daytime also, the 5$ 200$ gtd's etc, give us something to play. Recreational players aren't going to deposit more than once for the most part, hence the reason the low stakes cash games are reportedly so tough(I dont play em).
I hope jackpot poker isn't the death of the network but I have a feeling the only group it MAY help is the site themselves I can't see it being good for serious players/grinders at all. I don't see guys that try to bink jackpots in 5 mins liking 3-5hr late reg mtts w re entries or cash games filled with super nitty regs grinding for rb/beast and the rest of the issues the site has. I see the fish flocking to them and the regs kinda being forced to follow and every other game format suffering but time will tell and I hope I'm wrong.
