Why would the starting stack be the Problem? Just multiply the blind Levels of your 3k structure by 10 and it will be the same thing.

sure, but why are we here yet again talking about structures? they can't seem to get it right. They have more issues about these things than any site i know of, its ridiculous.

Even though I really dont like this change, at least we can say, that Party is trying to create something new and not just copying things that seemed to work in the past. If you try something completely new, the risk to make a bad decision is always higher, but its the only way, how you can really get better than the others.

btw if you offer a promo with 1k$ bounties on partypoker pros, but it is displayed as 1 Cent bounties in the Lobby it is senseless

I don't care what the structures are like - JUST STOP CONSTANTLY CHANGING THEM!!!

Played the Powerfest "Last Chance Freeroll" (149773499). We played about four hands, four minutes, then the tournament paused briefly and then was finished.

I guess this means I get a share of the T$ prizepool, as does everyone else (top 100 "paid", but only 72 registered to start), but I have to ask what was the point?

When this game finished, a messaged popped up at my screen that the pricepool will be devided between all remaining players ;-)

So will be around 138 tournament dollars, guess they'll add this manually to our accounts

$0.01 knock outs tho

Hey Jim put a $1k bounty on all our pros. Now this is taking $10k out of our marketing budget so do it properly!


"Say no more"

Don't worry everybody will get $1k who knocked people out, I think some people actually even had more, there was a lot given away in the tournament for sure. Next week we will remove the pop ups, definitely can see why they would be super annoying.

thoughts on the new structures after playing today?

Big fan

Seems decent, since one can late reg so tournaments won't last so long. Too early to say really.

But just go for uniformity and change your current 3+ different structures with this one. Almost anything is better than current ragbag of structures.

i didnt know they had 1k bountys in the pros, where was the information? Wanna know if im missing infos that im not aware of so next time i pay more attention

This is a back office issue as we can not target a specific player in a game with a ticket bounty - only cash
Hence the 0,01C placeholder - tickets will be added manually at some point today


This tournament had tech issues and ended due to the number runners not being sufficient for the specific set up
FYI there should have been approx 1000 players invited - something went wrong with the set up
The tournament will run at some point with the correct runners uploaded and all relevant players will be updated via email


These are social promotions and shared via multiple social media channels - twitter, FB groups etc

Hey, we're doing a vote on whether to make the title fight 1 or 2 days.

https://twitter.com/plenopads/status/914861000620462082

Two imo, finish with 80 players left or so

What's the add on that makes fonts bigger for you pads?

I voted for 1 day since it lasted "only" 12 hours yesterday. I guess that at that tournament if you end up at the top3 you're going to have few days free anyways ;D

Dont have a Twitter account, but 1 day is definetely better to keep more recs playing it. Players who make the ft in this wont care about a few extra hours anyways.

Hey Partypoker rep,

Any idea when we are going to get the tournament dollars for the unused powerfest tickets? I would really like to start playing wth my tournament dollars. It's been a couple of days. Any idea on what date the staff does the exchange? I saw somewhere that you stated that multiple tickets will be exchanged post series as long as tickets have been used in the first instance to play the target events. If you play the events listed - extra tickets will be changed for T$ once all powerfest events have been completed"

Good to see that all high buy-in events finally have same structures. Easier to apply changes too later without mistakes.

Pads, I think you should have noted at your vote that structure for Title Fight was changed. There's certainly people who didn't play last night or did play but didn't notice major change in structure which resulted for shorter run time but voted 2 day event because Title Fight used to last about 16 hours, now it lasts 12 hours. That will most probably end up somewhat biased result.

Keep up these structures for week or so and don't change anything but clear bugs. That'll allow you to get some information and us players get the impression if this really is good structure or not.

Demagnet, are you sure you didn't get you T$? I got mine (just 215), didn't note them but checked My Account -> My transactions -> My T$ and they had appeared 27th of Sep around 5 am ET. I do play lots of 109-530 events so it was easy to miss for me.

Party_Rep, about the $1k bounties they were super badly marketed. I follow Party's own blog, check all promotions regularly, played 85 hours last week and there was no information at all to be found except here in 2+2 because someone mentioned it. Surely a special box in promotions with "added bounties" can't be so hard to add and mention this in your own blog and here too.

Would it be possible to get exact MTT prize structures? Would love to get to see %-wise prizes instead of checking it always moneywise. Since all now seem to use same prize structure that really would be helpful.

'X Minutes remaining to register' would be v helpful.

If the software doesn't allow it you could put the time reg closes in the lobby somewhere.

Late Registration for 20 Levels 21:42

Play till 1-2am on day 1 and have something really playable for somebody who's got work on monday, or play until 3am and make day 2 a longer level length.

Structures seem a little on the fast side for the low buyins to me. They need to be faster because of larger fields of course, but maybe something like 8 into 10 minutes is better. They seem a bit ridiculously slow on the small field high buyins, 9 hours for a 167 person field (yesterdays 23:00 CET 215$ ended at 8am) is not something I'd personally consider optimal. But overall I like the direction better after letting it sink in a bit
