Various other players have asked the same question and this was Colette's response:
"Poker Room management made the decision to remove the games to pool liquidity to the 6 handed games as the 9 handed games are no longer a popular choice".
Personally, I think it's got less to do with how popular the 9max format is/was and more to do with the fact that 6max games generate more rake for PP.
It's a similar approach to what we're currently seeing being used in the MTT schedule, in regards to stakes/games offered being reduced and players having less to choose from.
I think PP's hope is that, players will stay loyal to PP and simply put all there money into the games that are being offered.
I can tell you that, the above certainly hasn't eventuated in my case. I personally got fed up with the constant changes and lack of offerings weeks ago, started playing elsewhere and have hardly played on PP since.
I was looking forward to and had every intention of playing both the 'Monster and KO Series' but, have found myself to be so disillusioned with PP that, I decided to skip the entire Monster series and currently have no intention of playing the upcoming KO series either.
IMO, whilst the current Poker room management remains in place (eg: the people making the decisions) and they continue on in the same way they currently are (with the ongoing constant changes every week etc...), I can't see PP becoming the main poker site of choice for MTT players in the foreseeable future and it's unlikely I will return to playing on the site on a more regular basis anytime soon.
