Any tournaments that get cancelled on a Sunday like today just don't deserve to be on the schedule. Surely alter them to something else?

In the lobby right now, tourneys that have been cancelled:

(WET)
10:30pm $55+R PLO
10.30pm $55 NLH 1R1A
10.50pm $11 Stud H/L
11.10pm $7.70 Mixed NLH/PLO 6-max
11.20pm $8.80+R Stud
11.25pm $11 8-Game
11.30pm $33+R NLH 6-max
11.35pm $55 PLO
11.45pm $27.50 NLH Big Antes [500 Cap]
11.50pm $16.50 Draw [Turbo]
12.20am $5.50 Triple Stud

This is only a 2 hour window of the schedule. You opted to tweak the schedule instead of overhauling it; isn't this one of the things where some tweaks make a lot of sense?

Should have had 30k starting stacks in the Billion.

Is the Billion a two day event? Is there a planned prolonged break at any point?
12-01-2014 , 01:03 AM
Planned 5 min break every hour and permanent break when one player has all the chips.

Should do a biggest special Once a month either on the first or last Sunday.

Them prizepools yesterday. It's a no brainer imo
12-01-2014 , 12:01 PM
+1 to higher gtds in the 33r/55r no point of playing them atm.

Def about time to add 500bb to all tournaments as well.

In SM and warm up wud love to see level change after 500/1000 jumps are just huge

Somthing like

500/1000
600/1200
800/1600
1000/2000

And from here as usual.

boom Kockout week! moarrrr rrRRRAAAAAKEEEEE
12-01-2014 , 01:07 PM
Variable speed! psko

More rake yes but at least its a promo week and should create action. Then double vision afterwards. Pretty good.

The second game during double vision is 6max, awesome

And the sunday 5 million on 28th.

Good job!

actually this promo is rather awesome and when you keep complaining like that anyway you lose credibility

Problem with 'create more action' is it generally means 'pull the fish into these tournaments this week'. Looking at the schedule I'm gonna play like one or two of these tops.

I'm not one to bitch about promos but basically a week of 20% rake promo tournaments and slightly tougher normal schedule.
12-01-2014 , 01:51 PM
Also, has there ever been a 6max Sunday Million? Lifetime bragging rights to the winner.
12-01-2014 , 02:28 PM
Make the 5 million a 1 million gtd to 1st.
12-01-2014 , 02:57 PM
i wont million

Yeh its not a long term solution but its better than nothing and should make December fun
12-01-2014 , 04:28 PM
You missed the point. and/or I did not explain it well enough.
12-01-2014 , 04:29 PM
ok, what was your point?
12-01-2014 , 04:37 PM
the point is if youre mainly playing the regular schedule and not the promo'd games, the regular schedule is going to be slightly tougher bc of the regs playing more MTTs that week + the 2-4 tabling fish will only play the red promo'd games and not the regular schedule. so for someone like Doggz, the promo is actually kind of a bad thing

maybe

idk

khanrava is much better at english than me

The rec's were pulled out of all the other games into the big promoted events, that's very likely why all those mtts were cancelled
12-01-2014 , 04:42 PM
I would imagine there will be more fish flicking it in some regular games too. Those games listed are not very popular at the best of times anyway.

Promo weeks are good for fish excitement levels and hence good overall for mtts imo. Annoying a small subset of regs doesnt seem that important in the grand scheme of things.

Can you raise please the guarantee back to 60k for the 1.10+R 3xturbo? Today it had 53k prizepool and I'm sure it can go back to pre summer when it was still a 60k guar.

Also out of curiosity, will there be another WCOOP challenge series? If so when? in 2013 it was in december. Not that it would concern a lowstakes donk like me, but i'd like to know .
