i'm not even against such a move, but a post from a rep informing about the change would be good.

both are $215 tickets so it would make alot of sense to me
bump

make saturdays what they deserve to be! starting off with a good satty schedule

1196947067 1k fpp+ sat

Please consider adding sats to each of the daily bigs starting 2-3 hours before with a structure similar to this and the buyin around 1/8th of the target, eg. $3.30 sat to the big $27.50.

The 8 minute levels and smoother blind jumps will allow for players to utilise more optimal shove/fold ranges and the 50BB starting stack should mean that it won't run for too long.

what do you mean vanilla? freezout? cause there are a couple of rebuys running at the time you mention.
there are like a couple of FOs open up until an hour earlier approximately, plus another deep turbo fo at 13:40 ET.
if one was starting 45' before it would have to be an hyper and prob on the higher end of buy-in, so i don't see why you'd rather have an expensive hyper and not want to play the 2xT $3.3 for example.
the feeders for b162 are pretty decent imo in comparison to other reds but i surely wouldn't mind more sats available (especially since nowadays the offering sats are only for featured tournaments).

This seems to be the most no brainer thing of all time......

why cant you just pause any tournaments in the 5 minute break. If i registered for a sit and go and it starts in the break its the only table with no break. Why arent you just consequent?

afaik this only applies to the $1m Storm, as I've been able to unreg from everything else I've satted into this week.

I (and most MTT regs, I imagine) would be fine with all sats having the "first seat won must be played" policy, but it seems unfair to only apply it occasionally. There are thousands of cash game / SNG players out there who use FPP satelites to the Storm to convert their points to T$, and they won't have all expected to be forced to play the Storm this weekend.

I don't think many would be ok with that. If the schedule remained the exact same I'd expect to see a 10x-30x increase in cancelled tourneys with that policy. Overlays by occurence would probably go up 5x.

of course there would be plenty to dislike that, all/most of the T-money grinders.

personally i wouldn't mind it, although i'm not sure what it would do to traffic, it's a legit concern you raise. although i doubt the decline in traffic would be that big.
sat grinders might just adjust by sucking up the fact they'd have to play the first ticket won, rather than change their game of choice drastically (move to other formats or to cash etc).

anyway, this is just a theoretical conversation imo, i am pretty sure stars isn't going to change anything within the near future.

lol, we had the "mtt must be played" rule for about 3 weeks like 6 months ago. Don't start it again.

I'd prefer the freedom to unregister, but I'd be fine with a clear rule that the first seat must be played. What's definitely not cool is slipping in "must-play" sats without clearly labelling them as such.

That's definitely not supposed to be that way. I'll let the appropriate person know about it. (I don't handle live event satellites, myself.)

SCOOP satellites will continue to expand as we get closer to the series. The $700 satellites to the Main [H] have been doing well so far... it's good to see!

I'm glad that you're enjoying them... they've been generating a ton of seats so far!

1196947809 00:15 CET 11+ Warmup Sat:

This one is never running, allready mentioned it.

1) change it into a Million 11+ Sat, it seems more players are gonna play mio then warmup sats.
2) reduce min players to 6 not 9
3) registrationhas to be open much longer then 50-60minutes like its now.

Add some 8$ 3x to SCOOP at 18:30 CET, there is a huge sathole

why does the Super Tuesday have 4$ 3x sats and 11$ 2x sats and the Thursday Thrill only has 7.5$ 3x sats ?
a lot of people would really really want to play the Thrill but the 7.5$ 3x sats are too expensive compared to the 4$ 3x sats.

+1

That's why I hope the soon to be announced 2 day tourney is a $700 buy in instead of a 1k to make satellites more affordable.
