fix this asap and every other mtt that has this. come on now who's idea was that
A buncha tournaments still do that. We've been not so subtly dropping hints for a while, no idea why its still like that. Love their structures generally, that one jump just seems so out of place.

i mean the $33 3k big 10 has the 600-1200 level but the $55 5k big 10 doesnt. so ridiculous and makes absolutely no sense what so ever

Melvin, you and your like 10 accounts have been on WPN for a long time now, you should be well aware it's a joke. But yeah.... it's been addressed in this thread over and over a long with a lot of other good suggestions but like everything else is always ignored.

Not that this matters, but after this weekend, I will significantly scale back my playing. I will limit my schedule to the 50k hi roller and 15k on sunday, and the omaha and 10k on saturday. The structures and late reg make the games practicaly unbeatable , and there seems to be no indication that they will be improved. You've just lost a lot of rake from me, and will continue to lose rake unless you make some much needed changes.

'Unbeatable' .. I beg to differ. Maybe I'm running hot, but I have been beating the games. There are plenty of bad players.. Even the regs are not particularly good.

I enjoy the long late reg.. It bloats the prize pool when I'm doing well and allows me to buy in super late when I'm not doing so well. I'll usually rebuy if I can still get 10 big blinds with a starting stack. After one double up with a starting stack late, I've found it is pretty easy to make the money by playing solid ABC poker.

Id like to see your stats. Almost any individual who claims to be a "big winner" on a internet forum is a break even to losing player, who keeps no track of their results and has no way of knowing how well they are doing, preferring to delude themselves.

Of course, if you show otherwise, I'll conceed my point.

What?

I understand the complaints that they make the touranments too long (don't 100% agree but that's been addressed) but I don't get what you mean by this and also strongly disagree that the tournaments aren't beatable FWIW.

Not that I have anything to prove to you, but I would do that if it were easy to prove.. IE. linking to shark scope or taking a screen shot of my Holdem Manager. However, no sites track WPN and hand histories on WPN are so ******ed that HEM doesn't track rebuys and winnings properly.

Also, I never said that I was a "big winner", all I said that I was beating the games. FWIW, whether u'd like to believe me or not.. last month I had 15k worth of cashes, 5k of which was profit. Take it or leave it.

Why haven't icm chops been implemented at final tables ?
08-19-2014 , 10:54 PM
*Crickets chirping*

Noticed also the inability to re-enter using tournament dollars. Seems off beat.

I love the site, not complaining at all, just pointing out a couple things.

Idk what buy in level you play but you must be playing above your head or you aren't putting in enough volume (which honestly is hard to do on wpn).

I think WPN would be the nuts for US players if they had a schedule more similar to merge. I think its funny how the strengths of wpn are totally different than merge. I love wpn because they offer rakeback, initial bonus is much much better than merge, and I think the structures are a little better with 15 min levels.

I've earned $25 of my bonus on wpn, while on merge I've earned a little over $10 (I've played about 2 times as many mtts on merge because they schedule is much better at merge). I feel rake back alone makes WPN much better than Merge. Merge is looking for a $ grab while wpn at least offers some promos where they distribute rake.

He's illustrating the problem with the deep structures w/ unlimited reentry for 3 hours;

It's easier for the best regs to win and harder for the lessor regs or recreational players to win. The best players can take every slight edge they get to build a stack during the reentry and once they have a stack they can maintain it because of the deep structures.

But yeah... if you can't beat the MTTs on WPN you need to work on your game because with all that said above they are still very soft.

Wpn should run a peak time $10 rebuy with 8 levels of rebuys. Start it at 7 pm est with the 15k and put a 5k gtd on it, 1500 starting , 1500 rebuy and 3000 add on chips. I think they have a nightly $10 rebuy (?) but it starts so late lotta people can't play it, especially recreational players. I know sites don't love rebuys but it's important to offer tourneys like this for the player base.

+1

They have 2 $6 rebuys w/ a $2K GTD, one at 7 PM EST and another at 9 PM EST and on Saturday they have a $10 rebuy that I believe is a $4K. It'd be nice if they'd change the 7 PM EST to a $10.

This sounds very reasonable. ESP considering they seemed to have removed the 7pm ET $6r with the last update, which was the only $6r to regularly hit its gtd. So replacing it with a larger rebuy that is likely to hit the stated gtd, would be nice..

I don't think a bunch of $11 1k's and similar lower stakes tournaments would be too much to get going over the latter part of this year. The site could definitely use more recreational players and I think the majority in this thread are ok with adding smaller buy in, faster structured mtts, as long as the current core schedule is not compromised.

They didn't get rid of the 7 PM EST $6rb.

spoke to WTD a few weeks ago and he mentioned it was under development but not very high on the priority list.

Definitely would be nice to see more activity in these areas. Inaction leads me to believe that they are indeed making a lot of money from having this site running and I hate to say it but a little laziness in these areas because of that.

would be cool if WPN had a weekday 162 or 215 - I know they use to have a 162 every Weds night but they axed it for whatever reason....I love WPN over Merge but there's not much to play there in the higher buy in range

Agree 100 percent. stopped playing altogether. No reason to have a 3 hour plus tournament re enter . The prize pools are diluted with all the extra buyins with an additional 20 to 30 spots paying min payouts not even equal to the buyin. Site doesn't want to listen to the players and even make a compromise and make it a 2 hour rebuy and have some tournaments that are frezouts. Im going to play on merge or bovada way better tourneys and more choices then only having a 3 hourt late reg to choose from which you have to be ******ed to be enamored of like a lot of the shills in this thread are.

The rentrys will certainly not be altered as was confirmed by tournament director when he popped his head in on the can't say discussion.

A Wednesday night 162 would be awesome.
08-31-2014 , 09:29 PM
please quicken the structure - I played the 109 tonight - 1.5 hrs in we're at 50/100 come on now
09-17-2014 , 03:12 AM
I wish wpn would keep people on the west coast in mind when making the schedule. The nightly 10k is @ 3pm which probably causes you all to miss out on many potential players on the west coast who are still at work. I remember the WPNTD saying something about making a new tourney schedule. California is a big market that you guys are missing out on.
09-17-2014 , 04:40 PM
What days does the 4k rebuy run on?
09-18-2014 , 08:30 PM
What is a race fee? I see it listed on some SNG's.
