There are no 27/82 or 215 sats to the Sunday 500. Think there is definitely some room for them.

Makes no sense to not have any today. These have been running 3x/day the past two weeks and have generated a bunch of seats.

Are they removing all "none turbo none rebuy" satellites for other sats? Eureka €215, only 15 min levels or HT! Only turbo is with 3x rebuy

Exactly !!! I was looking forward to them as they have a nice structure. The stuff that they've put in place today seems so weird - plenty of rd 1 sats to the deadlines, they could've definitely replaced some of those with direct $700 sats. Also, normal speed 100+R, but turbo 215+R... weird weird choices.

Really disappointed in Stars today.

ANZPT satellites, specifically ones to Auckland right now should be based on local not server time.
For instance there is a $425 that runs Sunday 8:06pm usually, now this weekend we move to daylight savings time so it becomes 9:06pm because it is pegged to server time. In a couple of weeks when server goes off daylight saving this would become 10:06pm.

I think it makes much more sense to have it for a local time rather than server time.

Any ETA for this Bryan? Also, is there any Turbo Deep Sats planned for the SM?

PCA megapath for FPPs is always awesome, and even now at the back end of september you're getting hundreds of runners in the r1-3 levels. Currently it's:

100fpp r2 every 8 hours
300 r3 every 8 hours
900 r4 every 8 hours
2500 r5 once a week
10k r6 once a fortnight
40k r7 once a month

or at least that's how I understand it. I'd suggest that there's already sufficient liquidity in the player pool to justify running a r5 (2500fpp) daily, and possibly even every 8 hours. You could then run a 10k r6 every Sunday and make the 40kr7 at the end of the month (and all the subsequent levels) even bigger, whilst also encouraging heavier volume consumption of fpps (which is presumably a key consideration)

Bryan PLEASE do something to revive the step program. Maybe make step 5 and exit poitn wher instead of receiving a step 6 the player is awarded 2100 T$. Its not like its gonna cut down traffic in the 2100s step 6's as the guys that play them are usually highstakes guys and they guys who cant afford them will and want to play them can still use their 2100 T$ to reg.

Coincidentally, the other thing I've been thinking about is Steps. How about a daily (or even weekly) Steps MTT? $7.50 buyin, paying out Step 2-6 tickets depending on the prize pool. This would surely boost the Steps SNG player pools, and all the money from tickets is constantly recycled so the rake income would be attractive to the site.

Stuff like this would be nuts

agree, would welcome any extra chances possible to play mid/high stakes fpp tourneys.

This is the right idea. Whatever can create an environment where consumption of FPP's is only surpassed by a stronger need to earn more is what all sites should be striving for. Good for the target tourney and good for the SNG's/Cash games that rec players play in to earn the fpps.

very, very well put

stars please run two lots of steps. keep first set as they are and the second have breaks, that way mtt grinders can play them and not have to miss a break for the sake of one sng.

sorry for posting again, i have suggested this before but idk if it got noticed.

Unless there is an issue with my Pokerstars 7, there are literally no Step games in the lobby?

whats going on?

EDIT: friend notified me of server restart. my bad.

THIS !!! So frustrating when you have to miss a break only because of one single sng !!

I think it would have to be all or nothing.

Makes no sens to divide the games further given that liquidity is low already.

that said, if that change brings more people into the steps I'm all for it.

Nice to see that the re-entry tourneys that offered terrible value to players are gone. I do agree that there is some room for balance in sat offerings that some on here might not like but it's important that things don't get taken to the extreme.

Agreed. They could do this for steps and maybe satellite SNGs, and leave the normal sngs as they are. The logic being that ppl who play sats for MTTs are used to the sync breaks and need/want them.

We have sng satellites (1 table) for PCA and BSOP. Why not expand this and have 1 table sattys to more live events?
UKIPT
LAPT
Eureka
Aussie Millions
All of these are applicable. This would be a good thing for people who play at unusual hours and want to qualify aswell

I feel like there should also be Mega-Path Sit & Go Sats to the next scheduled round running 24/7. Something like:

PCA Sat [Mega-Path, Rd 1]: 35 FPP Hyper-Turbo [6-Max, 2 Seats] to the next scheduled Rd 2: 100 FPP [Turbo]

PCA Sat [Mega-Path, Rd 2]: 100 FPP Hyper-Turbo [6-Max, 2 Seats] to the next scheduled Rd 3: 300 FPP [Turbo]

PCA Sat [Mega-Path, Rd 3]: 300 FPP Hyper-Turbo [6-Max, 2 Seats] to the next scheduled Rd 4: 900 FPP [Turbo]

PCA Sat [Mega-Path, Rd 4]: 835 FPP Hyper-Turbo [6-Max, 2 Seats] to the next scheduled Rd 5: 2,500 FPP [Turbo]

and so on...

I see there are some similar Sats but they are either [10-Max, 1 Seat] or [6-Max, 1 Seat] -- which is not very appealing to me...

Massively agree with this. Nothing to lose if it's a sit and go.

Also, I also suggested StepG's should be used as direct but ins to the €1100 package events.

And.... UKIPT satties in € currency would help (with step tickets in mind).

€215 ticket to buy into £162 works out pretty decent. Stars can refund the change I'm sure as T£

Sorry if it's been answered already, but where is platinumstar million sat?

nvm it was readded to the lobby just recently

May we have direct FPP satty to 700$ pca sat / 500€ ept sat? would bet the would be a win/win for softening the field/fishes using some fpps
