Bryan do you realise how ridiculous it is that the Bigger $109 must have a 160k guarantee now instead of 200k because of the 'rules' stating it has to be double the daily guarantee ! - the daily guarantee which only ever had overlay a handful of times since it began I'm sure. Did the Bigger ever not make its Sunday guarantee?? everrrr ?????

more of these sensible decisions please

Bryan already said he's looking forward to skip the double rule but he should be very quickly in changing this one by hand.

could stars reps please confirm that all the ****ing with guarantees is to dissuade recreational players from bothering to play mtts and just spin and go or play casino games instead

wearepoker

?

there is no way reducing guarantees doesn't cost the company $ on tourney fees in the long run due to reduced average participation figures

there is no way the company doesn't know this

therefore

this is either, viewed as acceptable or desirable

there is no way stars is a shadow of what gave it its reputation and market share

@whatever level of management drafted this new mission statement

and i honestly do feel bad for the stars reps whose job it is to come in here and lie to us about this, crowd control amongst the passengers of a scuttled ship cant be fun

a job is a job and we all gotta eat so nothing personal against the reps when i complain about the higher ups who are ****ing players/myself over

Well imo the rep here could do a much better job, starting by reading/participating daily.. and at least be honest about stars motivation behind this recent policies. I just hope 888 and some other rooms start capitalizing on this slowly dying stars.

It was nearly a good call considering it had 200 less entrants this week

The guarantee situation has gone past the point of rescue though and I think after SCOOP I'm done with Stars.eu. Not that they'll miss my occasionally SilverStar ass all that much

Stars isn't killing mtts, all you whiners are killing mtts. This should be the last place Stars looks for mtt advice, they don't need to cater to the regs, they need to cater to the recs. If the recs are there, the regs will play regardless, but now the regs feel entitled to come in here and cry about every little thing. The problem is most of these requests are beneficial to themselves or a select few and not the overall sustainability of mtts.

Hey Bryan,
can't seem to find hotter 3.30 at the tourney/special tab on sundays. Not sure if only i can't find it, but anyways just letting you know as it might get more entrants that way.

Think it starts too late tbh. Should start same time as Weekly 215 turbo.

The 215 wont take any business from the speedway but there will definitely be a lot of punters at that time that will reg it that wont keep regging for another 2 hrs.

Also perfect oppertunity to run some big Gtd sats (displayed in the main lobby) to the Weekly like stars.fr do, as has been mentioned a lot.

Its a nice big game on a sat night with a fast structure, could be so much bigger if its promoted throughout the day.

The 11 cubed (12:15 ET) should be bumped up to a 25k gtd on Sundays just like the 8 cubed (11:30 ET) is. They are basically equivalent in prizepool everyday of the week, including Sundays. I don't think the 11 cubed has had lower than a 25k prizepool on a Sunday ever. Please check the data and make them both 25k prizepools. I think this will boost participation even more, especially for a rec. If they normally reg one of the two I think they will be more inclined to reg both of them. Seeing a 25k gtd is a massive difference than seeing 12k in the eyes of a rec, even regs as well.

Make it happen!

thats borderline heretical, guarantees dont drive interest/traffic. the data is all there.
