Being saying this for years. This exact format would work for all the regional tours and with a slight modification could work for EPT's as well.

To play these tourneys a player needs to pay rake ahead of time to accumulate fpp's.

stars just cant allow people to be solid winner at any specific offering

they have a business model where if they arent raking more than you are making, they make the offering less beatable, or get rid of the game

greedy pricks

"man i really want to be a rakeback grinder" uttered nobody ever upon playing their first hand of poker

if its not a mistake im interested why they removed the 2.22r but not the 3.33rs to the warmup, when all 2.22r get probably over double of entrants on average

x2 sat is dieing tho, so if they have a replacement for it i dont mind trying something new

2.20$ important level for people with low bankrolls, because the 1.65$ is way too variancy at some point and the 3.3$ they're underrolled for.

What about the 6max Hyper 7.25$ Double Shootout to the millions, still 3min per level, wouldn't that be better off 9/10 per hands also?

This is every hyper-sat current available to register. There are sooooooo many missing games that have not re-spawned, most noticeably $109s, $37.5s to the kickoff, $3.75s to the Storm.

Also the $37.50 sats to the Sunday Rebuy are STILL 3 MIN BLINDS?!?!?

They also have a 1 minute wait at the beginning instead of 15 seconds.

Do you listen to anything we suggest?

The PlatinumStar+ VIP Sunday Million 2500 FPP satty and 500 FPP turbo sattys to the Sunday Million need to have 125/250 blind level added. The jump from 100/200 to 150/300 with ante is a huge blind level jump.

There should be FPP (round) sattys for all weekly events, Bigs and Hots. I am referring to the same FPP sattys that lead into the Big 109, Nightly 40k, and Sunday Million, etc. It needs to be implemented to all of these tourneys not just a select few. This would generate more players being fed into the prizepools of the biggest tourneys on the schedule.

There are a bunch of waiting too hear back from the star's rep, asap.

about the $2.22+R Sunday Million Satty's

We want them back!

Just cause evening or overnight ones get cancelled doesnt mean you have to cancel all the primetime ones that run!

many of us have posted in this thread about it and we want answers.

There should be a second Sunday Million $74 satellite spawning once somebody sits the 1st game. For some reason today it is limited at 1 in the lobby, should be up to 3. Otherwise people will find it hard to register in time.

Quite a few satellite types which cancelled consistently were removed from the satellite schedule, including the $2.22s. The $3.30 2x-Turbos remain. We've been making an effort to eliminate tournaments from the schedule which cancel all the time, to get rid of the negative player experience of registering for a tournament which does not play. In so doing, some tournaments which run occasionally, but which also cancel quite a bit, will disappear.

Good idea. I'll mention this to the person responsible for the $9M SM.

Bryan,

The 2 dollar 3x needs a reduction in min players and this will run much more consistently. 6 min should be fine and there shouldn't ever be an overlay.
Problem solved. But since the solution is so simple I gather there's more to it than just min players.

I know a lot on here aren't wanting to hear this suggestion but it is best for the game and might allow this sat to come back. Late reg for this tourney should be reduced from 1 hour to 45 min. This will cause more rebuys and give rec players a better chance to qualify based on recs qualifying/proportion of who is rebuying.
