So make new ones and not taking the $2-$10 many people play out. Like the 10:35 $500 Turbo. Some people stick to a small BR or just play the smaller buy-in's. Kinda like you took out the small PLO8/NLHE ODM's awhile ago for no reason that i played.
I'm guessing you guys are trying to push people to play higher buy-in=more rake=bigger LB.

I don't remember saying i don't like GTD's. I said i don't like putting big GTD's on things, making them slow 12-15 min blinds that take all day to play. How long do GTD's last if they have huge overlay's? Great for us while they last but they just make them longer and longer. Like when you run the decent game types for OSS 5 hours LR with 15 min blinds.

I'm in the minority i suppose but i follow Strict BR, i just don't play the $20+ games. Most of the sat's are useless as they don't run or just too big of a ratio to bother for a smaller BR. Which isn't that big of a deal to me but someone said Sat's.

In the end what i'm asking for is some consistent Schedule you can get on and expect to be able to play something in your time slot/BR.

The schedule says the Stud/8 is $10, I played it on 1/13 it was $10. I dunno what you are talking about. @stuff
They put up the * saying it starts tomorrow...we shall see.

Which ones are missing? Their site says the new schedule starts 1/15 (Monday) and I'm looking at the lobby for Monday and it's loaded with all the new tournaments and increased guarantees that are advertised on their site.

Can we get some 6max hyperturbo top 2 pay sng's for the milly.

Hi there,

You're new The Streak tournaments award 63% of the prize money to the final table and 37% in tickets. Do you really need to use those tickets for the same event the next day? or can you also use the ticket for the same tournament on an other day?

I dont think that this one will run . 45 min to go, and only 3 guys registered and no satellites running at all. Prob will get cancelled, even though sounds like a good tourney

+1. Use Pokerstars structure starting with 10bb and 1/5th antes.

Can you please fix the $1 10 AM rebuy....

we just did add ons after level 9 but it is still letting late registration for 3 more levels

Have any of the streak tournaments gone off today? Doesn't look like it.

Looks like the $5.50 $5k at 5:15 eastern might be the only one.

I'm going to dissent. I understand what you're saying and how hard it is for some players to commit eight hours to a tournament. I know that I'm in the minority on this one, but I'm not alone.

I specialize in playing long, deepstacked tournaments. If it takes ten hours, that's what it takes. Many years ago I was playing a micro MTT with a boatload of players (4,700 I think) and I final-tabled it for 116 buy-ins. I was knocked out in 7th place after 6 hours. Several hours of late registration wasn't a "thing" back then. But I was hooked, and ever since I'm always looking for deepstack tournaments. Where I play, even a live tournament with 50 players can run from 1800 to midnight, so playing 2 or 3 hours longer isn't a big deal.

I have ADD as well, but while it's true that I'm easily distracted, I also have the ADD tendency to lock into something one thing that I really like and forget that the rest of the world is out there. I can handle a task, but I can't multitask.

Most people with a job and kids can't play tournaments that take 8 hours or more. I get it. You are the majority and the schedule should reflect that. But leave a few of those very long tournaments for those of us who are crazy enough to play them.

So you use your ADD meds as an advantage? Yeah, not everyone has ADD meds to keep them focused and playing long hours. These arent even true deep stacked tournaments. I'm sure the massive overlay at every stake will tell you how much everyone hates late reg and pretty tired of it. Combine that with the downtrend of Bitcoin, I know its really hurting them right now since they been holding Bitcoin instead of instantly selling it. The pot is short 50%.

Once again.. There are plenty of 2 hr lr tournaments.. Amazing how they get so many less players.

I dont know where you get your info from that people hate long late reg? please share with me

Who the hell doesnt like people late regging tourneys for 5BB's?

I don't get it

Don't know what else is driving them all away. Maybe you should take a tournament and break it down in half. GTD and LR all of that. Half the GTD with 1 hr late reg. Maybe even start off a new structure and 1 hour LR turbos. Work on finishing tournaments around or under 6 hours. I think that would bring a lot of the people that have jobs back.

Please show me where the signs are people are being driven away?

Not sure if this is sarcastic or not - the 2hr lr doesnt finish late reg with 5bb

It was sarcastic...i'm in the camp of liking the long late reg periods

I pretty much gave up but came back for the streak. Some of these formats and structures just need to be fine tuned. Not a fun experience when you have an option to rebuy for 1-2BB. It just teaches the noobs bad bankroll.

Games used to be fun when you could late reg last minute and still have 10BB. I think you should set that as a goal and maybe skip some blind levels after late reg closes to compensate. These tournaments should have a lot more shoving deep in.

there are not tournaments you can re enter for 1 -2 bb

Again if you have somewhere you can show me where people are being driven away please show me. From what i can see numbers are better than ever

there are some tournaments I saw yesterday and today that were suppose to be closed at level 9 but still open at level 12-13..

If you could identify them i would really appreciate it - does sound like the $1 rebuy and add on?

wow, people really will find a way to complain about anything possible even if you (in theory, lol) don't give them anything worth complaining about.


just a suggestion based off my experience playing the new 88 sickament yesterday; i feel like the 5 hour late reg structure really does require a 10k starting stack over a 5k one. busted around the 700 level and would easily put another 2 into it if it wasn't a 6-7 bb starting stack. i think the 5k stack would work out a lot better for it if it's structure was like the 4pm pst 109 (ie 15min levels, 3 hour late reg , SS=10bbz at last level) but really think this one and all the 12:30 pst majors should have the 10k 12min 5hour structure. this will also help US recreational players who get off work in the early afternoon/evening still be able to late reg them and make it to bed on time even if they FT (longest non milly mtt i've ever been in was only about 10.5 hours, and as was mentioned a few posts before, EVERY SINGLE LIVE MTT that anyone will ever play will take that long JUST for day 1 [if not a 1 day event obv] much less to win the thing. ******ed to say 8 hours is too much time for a tournament) however, for some of the smaller buy in stuff like 22 4k or something (don't even think this exists anymore just using random example) i think having a slightly shortened structure would be ideal. i noticed you guys made the transition from 15 min levels down to 12 min levels in a lot of these events to help with that and think that is great success. some of the 7.5-8 hour (to win, something most of the complainers in here prob never do) events finish closer to 6 hours which is more appropriate imo.


funny thing is.. if you give these complainers 'what they want' in the form of these shortened structures, they will literally be back in this thread the INSTANT they make a deep run (doubtful) complaining that now the structure's too fast and it's a donk shove fest at the end and to fix it.


on behalf of the actual mtt community, please pleaes please please disregard some of the suggestions itt that are made by people i would bet my last dollar put in ****all worth of volume on the site anyways. obviously the network and traffic continues to grow exponentially as a result of success, not of failure as many itt would seem to wanna believe.


there are a bunch of new turbo offerings , many of which involve deep stacks like 10k or even the 20k one, and all the hypers with 25k starting , like, there are just a mountain of ways to play some tournaments that don't take 8 hours on the network. personally only run something like 1/8 turbo and 7/8 regular so i don't play them that often, but they're literally everywhere throughout the day.


just madness itt lol.

To the tournament director, I think the daily big10 $16.50 PLO8 needs a slight adjustment. There are missing blind levels around the money bubble and stalling before h4h is ruining the tournament. The same people abuse it every day.

It has a good structure overall, with plenty of blind levels, 200/400, 300/600, 350/700, 400/800... BUT, right around the money bubble the blinds jump from 500/1000 - 750/1500. The average stack at this point is probably 15-20k, with short stacks stalling once we are ten to the money. It's not uncommon to have 20k at 400/800, 5 from the money, then 20 minutes later having 15k at 750/1500, with 1bb stacks stalling at the other tables, handcuffing you. If you're at a table where no one is stalling, then you get taken advantage of.

These players have too much room to ruin the game for everyone else. We at least need a 600/1200 level.

To confirm the 60k last night was meant to be a 10k ss and will be in the future

I would love to see more Omaha Hi Low tournaments offered. Should be one popping off every hour. I rarely see an overlay in the few gtd tournaments that are offered. 2R/3R/5R and some $10+1 freezeouts would be fantastic. I think there is a $33 1.5k or something in the evening but it's a turbo so I avoid it most sessions. If it was a deepstack with standard levels I'd be in. Even some No limit micro rebuys in the $2-5 range would be awesome. Those are always fun.
