Just because the rebuy says .90+.9 does not mean it's raked, the entire rebuy goes into the prizepool. Just take a look at all the small buyin rebuys (4) and under, the entire rebuy goes into the prizepool.
They would do great to make this a lot clearer.

hmm it seems then that the $75rebuy hyper the first bullet $72 goes to the prizepool and if you rebuy $75 goes to the prizepool. I hope that's the case anyway.

It could certainly do with being made a lot clearer in the client

Right now there is a satellite running

BI 0.91$+0.09$
But The prize pool is 14.56$ with 10 players and 6 rebuys.
10x0.91$ players = 9.10$
14.56$-9.10$=5,46$
5.46$/6 rebuys = 0.91$.

while the lobby says rebuy is 1$ only 0.91$ goes to the pool.

Don't let em fool you, it is raked.

The joke is that you have to point out that because they don't realize that themselves.

please do not play so many Players, for example The Twister Today 133 Players 27 get paid.
18 would be enough. And bigger Price for First,

the same in the 14:45 / 16:00 22$ deep - or the new 11$ rebuy at 16:15 (thank you for adding it - great Tournament)

the sunday challenge had $129,900 prizepool.
975 entrants paying $82+$8 (82*975 = $79950)
555 rebuys paying $90 (90*555 = $49950)
=$129,900

so at least for the sunday challenge the rebuy wasn't raked despite $82 buying you a 5k stack when you first register and when you rebuy $90 pays for the 5k stack

2,5k gtd 25$ buy In 17:30 - 133 Players 20 get paid - perfect

Why do you have different payout structures?
I dont know if you can deal now at 888, it would be pretty nice.

First of all I think we all agree that it is time to fix the timebank issue! This should be the number 1 priority right now.

In regards to the timebank button itself: It is directly above (basically touching) the raise button.

There needs to be much more space between the two. How are you going to have a button so important in a spot where many can easily make a mistake of clicking the raise button instead of clicking the timebank button to have more time to make your decision!!! It is just common sense.

Especially given the fact that the auto-timebank function doesn't work. We multi-table and multi-site players (a vast majority of the regulars here on 888) are pressured into clicking that timebank button as quickly as possible in order to have sufficient time to make our action.

This is a HUGE ANNOYANCE that prevents us from putting in more volume on your site. Let's face it, we make up a huge part of your customers.

So why not fix the problem ASAP to satisfy your best customers?!

The important thing is, in that 90$ game, when you are playing and press the Rebuy button, does it state "xxx chips for 90$" or "xxx chips for 82$+9$" ?

this is the critical point, and you can only see it when you register and the game is running
it is NOT viewable from the lobby or by spectating.

Hey,
1. I’d like to update you that as of Next Wednesday night (May 6th) at midnight GMT we will run a WEEKLY late night version of the Crocodile with a 10k GTD to start. It will have the same buy in ($160) and format of the daily Crocodile. Let's see how that goes.
2. We are working on timebank issue, but unfortunately the implementation will take a while, so you will have to be pretty patient with that.
Cheers.

a word on the rebuys? would be really nice to get some decent additions, the site lacks *r1as and decent prizepooled rebuys over 11$.

also please promote / up prizepools in KOs. they're popular on pretty much every site but with such low grtds they're always gonna be withered on 888. The 27$ one could EXPLODE if you help with the grtd.

We do reserve the right to charge fees for rebuys and you will see this info before paying for the rebuy itself but we do so only at a couple of 2nd chance satellites and micro stake tournaments. There are no plans currently to expand this. There are no rebuy fees in the Sunday Challenge or $75 tournaments that were discussed here.

We did add an $11R at 14:15 GMT. We have some more non-rebuy tournaments planned before adding new rebuys. Regarding KO's, take into account the KO prize is not currently displayed as part of the prizepool (which will be fixed) so the prizepools are actually somewhat larger than they seem... Anyway, before summer season its usually difficult to raise GNTD's but we will have a look.

All the KO tournaments, especially 55ko have a pretty bad structure as well do you have plans to change this to the newer structure? As mentioned before there also needs to be a peak time 55 super ko between 5-9pm BST, is this one of your "tournaments planned"?

I also noticed you un-bolded the Sunday mega ko, was this by accident? it also got overlay this Sunday possibly because of it, I think you need to make better satellites, especially throughout the week to promote the tournament rather than just the $46 fo which are basically just 9 handed sng or the odd 11r which barely run in the weekdays.

$55 KO have been fixed with the new structures. We will consider a $55 Super KO at peak time after we implement the prizepool to portray the KO prizes (otherwise it looks unattractive). Thanks for the heads up on the Mega KO - Mistake - Fixed. We will also consider better sat's but this is another example of a tournament that is less attractive than it would be if the KO prizepool was portrayed as part of the prizepool.
