We are always trying to think of innovative things but it takes dev time so its at the back of the pile for now.


The structure is great, its more about a 109$ buyin 5k gtd for 1450 1st prize... very small for the buy in ,doesnt worth it.
Have to increase the buy ins..

I think It worth more to make 2 of the 15k later , the daily 109$ 15k always surpass, while the 109$ 5k early almost never does.

also , the 60$ 4k is a good tourney with a nice structure ,but it starts to soon compared to other tourneys, the 60$ 4k should start at same time as the 55$ 5k or later.

I have send some ideias through pv in previous occasions, if u want to hear me out letme know ,i want the same as u, the site to prosper and to become a major site.

I have a feeling that this is partially because they've changed up so much and haven't had much consistency - but you know better than I do. I've always said there should be a 75+7 or 69+6 4k GTD turbo nightly, but I see your point on the 80+8 not meeting it's GTD.

I haven't been playing purely because I lost stable internet in my apartment since the beginning of the month. It's been incredibly annoying - but I'm just one player.

I don't really have any good ideas to add in right now, but the site is growing there's no denying that. Hopefully there's more growth in the future and hopefully people don't only play the Jackpot games

drop that 88$ to 60$ buy in and move it to 4k gtd and it will hit its GTD...also it starts way too late that one

There's no way. Online people dont pre register for events. Would never ever work.


Played an $11 tournament the other day that had a $20k gtd. think it started around 3pm Eastern time. Thought that was an awesome event although the late reg and reentry time of 5hrs I wasn't a fan of. People re-entering all the time for 10bbs really handcuffs the bigger stacks.

Pretty sure that event miss the gtd by like 7k? Also That tournament would've been better if they pushed it back to like 5-6pm with 3-4hr late reg window.

I think there's enough traffic, if you advertise enough, to have a daily 20k (if you dont already, pretty sure ive only seen it sporadically) with a smallish buyin. Smallish buyins and big gtds will hopefully attract more players to the site

Yea I think it missed by a fair bit but it wasnt advertised or pushed in any way. It just appeared in the MTT Lobby as $20,000 gtd. The time was pretty random. Midday on Monday for me over on the west, 3pm over on the east. Feel like that would be a "low traffic" time

when is the "freebuy" tournament series? or is that cancelled already?
04-18-2015 , 12:36 PM
Average buy ins are too high to attract fish. Average buy in is in the $45-$50 range. You need smaller buy in MTTs with bigger GTDs in order to attract more players.

Good point, this is probably true in today's day and age.

Perhaps a nice compromise is 1 hour late reg and no re-entry. Or even 2 hour late reg with no re-entry. These are more attractive to a larger number of rec players imo because they see the regs (mostly regfish tbh) firing off 8 bullets in reentry trying to spew up a stack and they get discouraged if their roll can't afford the same. You would have to lower the guarantee initially but I think these would be popular.

It's been said many times before but the 3 hour late reg with reentry is tiresome. It's not a good format imo. Others may disagree. You don't have to do away with this format but having everything be this is hurting MTT traffic imo.

Get rid of 15 hour late reg!
04-18-2015 , 07:13 PM
Saturday schedule is even worst than a weekday lol
should have a super saturday or something that make the saturday worthy to be playing
the 55 KO alone is not enough
04-18-2015 , 07:27 PM
I'm not suggesting no late registration, just restrict it to the first 2 or 3 levels like the good old days.

I think longer late reg is important for special events that might struggle to hit the gtd but I absolutely would agree with 1 or 2hr late registration for normal events. My main issue is that at the end of the 3hrs the start stack is often 10bbs. This handcuffs the bigstacks a lot and stops them from accumulating the chips they normally would in certain spots if half the table didnt have 10bbs.
04-20-2015 , 02:32 AM
can we get a decent sunday turbo ($50-$100) buyin. If you are afraid about it overlaying do something similar as you did with the sunday special. Please start it with at least like 10k gtd tho so it has a chance of improving instead of putting a 2.5k gtd or something
04-20-2015 , 05:41 AM
I remember freeze out mtts those were the days. Maybe a 30.00 3k gtd freeze out with a 1 hr late reg

Agreed last night I was in the 12500 gtd 30.00 buying with 50k and about 100 bbs but got moved to a table with nothing but 5k stacks and had to shut down because there would be no post flop against those stacks

Makes no sense that there is no 30.00 buyin 10k on Saturday. It's just stupid that it's not available

Lower the gtd on the Sunday 25k. No way you should play a reg mtt and not be in the money after 5 hrs. Hell a 5 hr late reg is a joke in anything other that a really slow structured bug buyin like your million gtd

On May 8th, Americas Cardroom will kick off the Freebuy Super Series, a free online poker tournament series with $150,000 in guaranteed prize money.
04-20-2015 , 08:10 AM
can we also get a progressive weekly hat increases sort of like the 215 thats not at 100k.


How about a 109 that starts at 25k (similar to the current 109) that starts earlier and proggressive

and a $55 15k with 12 min levels instead of 15 min and progressive.
04-20-2015 , 12:30 PM
Alot of the comments are aiming towards maybe a 2 hour late reg with a stars like blind structure???

As much as we players all want this, I hope the guarentees will not be compromised due to the overwhelming chances of an overlay with a shorter late reg
