You know that Dan Harrington, Doyle Brunson and even recently Chris Moorman have become successful authors dude? you should write a book!

I am in profit over all sites lifetime in the low to mid five figure range. when broken down into annual figures it equates to less then min wage but then i dont play 40 hours a week so that's not exactly a fair comparison.

my point is though that those guys were successful authors because they had significant notable success. whilst been profitable is certainly a result I hardly think my current success in poker if you would call it that would warrant a book I think people would rather go to those guys who have significant success in poker.

that been said should I ever make millions from poker I would write a book and it would probably get turned into a movie but it would not be about poker strategy per say more one mans triumph over difficult circumstances. I guess the same would apply if i made millions selling ice creams.

in reality though I wont make millions from poker the industry has many challenges to it in the future with almost every single site targeting winning players and standard getting better, its more realistic to view poker as a hobby that makes me a little on the side and tops my annual earnings up to just below minimum wage.

all pretty relevant to the topic, start a blog already

more 215/109 turbo regular format sattys for the thursday thrill please. only 1x 109 and a 215 deep. put some nice feeders into 215 turbos and they are great games.

or at least add some more of the deep turbos. feels like there are almost no freezeout sattys. some 55r turbos like the super tuesday would also generate a bunch of seats. thoughts on one or two 55cubed reg speeds on a thursday?

hey Bryan

Super Tuesday and Thursday Thrill are the most important events from Mon to Fri.

I think the Sattys, therefore, should be stressed differently (marked in violet like this week KO deadlines for example) and they also deserve their own deadline sattys.

Good idea ^^ and please please add more for the thursday thrill. today felt sad when i only wanted to play a couple of the sattys offered compared to a tuesday when there are so many options.

Hello,

I just want to inform you all that we are planning to discontinue the client PokerStars 6 early next year. My colleague, Keith has posted a Q&A post here, which should answer some of your questions, but apart from that I am also interested in hearing further feedback from you.

We particularly want to hear about features that you now use in PS6 that you feel are missing in PS7, and which might make the transition to PS7 a negative experience for you. I am not thinking about problems with 3rd party software, but maybe there is functionality in PS6 that we, in your opinion, have underestimated the importance of.

Thanks,
Baard

PS6 is much more lighter than PS7. Love the old MTTs lobby too.

Performance wise PS6

couldn't you have made a seperate thread for that baard? it is not related to satellites at all. you are just derailing your own thread.

its just been a PSA in alot of threads started by pokerstars reps today


the 7 thread is here and it would probably be preferable to edit his post to include a link and direct comment/discussion there

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/23...5/index44.html

Please keep PS6 an option!!

iirc you said the way sng sats generate doesnt allow for them after the start of the target mtt, but it seems like a leak to not have them avaialable through the first X blind levels of the target, x should probably be 2 or 3 for reg/slow speed and 4-6 for turbo or faster

worth trialing imo

We don't need to discuss anything here, and I was in two minds about posting in this thread at all. However, I wanted you to have an opportunity to give your feedback, and if you don't want to do it here, feel free to send a mail to pokermanager@pokerstars.com

Thanks,
Baard

I have already left pokerstars now you have gone from been my favorite site to play on to been outside my top five. not that anyone cares but I thought I would send a three page reply to the copy and paste email response i got recently from an email i sent just under a month ago.

no one will read it or care but it makes me feel better to send it anyway.

This!

Love how you only respond to a semi-personal attack, rather than acknowledging all the suggestions being made, makes sense! Give the people what they want, or at least show some appreciation for their efforts in posting ideas.

these 8-max saturday 320 sats look interesting. 2500 chips and starting from bb50 with antes kicking in at lvl 2. seems a way better reg speed format than the 1500 chips starting at bb20 with late antes. i'm a bit confused why they are 8-max but thats not a huge deal. will play a few and post again.

^ noticed these too, good addition stars, this structure might actually be beatable

this structure is infinitely better than the other reg speed structure. so much more room for play with the 2500 chips starting at bb50, and early antes encourage action.

make it 9-handed and implement this **** across the board imo.

yeah, nobody wants to play these 1500chip bb300a rakegrabs, stars

some $82 reg speeds into all 320s with this structure would be sweet.
$55s into $215s
$33 into $162s
etc etc

the reg speed freezeouts are all still only open for registration 1 hour before start time. these would prob get alot more play if you make them the 6 hours as they are intended to be/you said you would change them to.

also would love to see the 2500 chip bb50 start thing expanded more as i mentioned yday

No longer says how much a player is paying when they make a rebuy.Is this so recs from some nations dont realise they are having to pay more rake than everyone else in the new year?

Bryan,

Why are the last 2x/3x rebuy super tuesday sats 2-3hours before the super tuesday starts...?
When the Thrill still has low buyin 3x sats while the event is ongoing. Surely it's a lot more -EV for recreationals to get in the thrill late as opposed to getting in the ST late?
Makes absolutely no sense, can you please explain?
