8c 11c have over performed gtd raise them
09-29-2015 , 04:10 PM
The 8 max no center seat has been a problem since the beginning of time and it still hasn't been changed. It's not even on the radar of the software development team.

random ideas

$55 deep becomes $5.50r 2x-turbo 6-max.

$54KO becomes $55 PSKO 8-Max variable time levels

$55t re-entry becomes Hot $162 8-max (run tons of satties)


need moar 8max
$54ko, 55re and 54tko all three get cut and replaced by a $55 PSKO or P Mega KO.

Reorganize the timing of the PSKO lineup so they aren't so random. The only reason the PSKO tournaments are at the hours they are right now is because Bryan/Luke simple transformed a dead tournament into PSKO. That's why we don't have a non 4m/6m/t PSKO during peak hours.

The 54tko is Doping just fine. Maybe make that psko too. But def do sth bout the other two
And don't remove 55 deep. Just add sth to make the pool bigger
09-29-2015 , 04:32 PM
but we want more than fine, we want great. Luke isn't just gonna plop down another mid/high game on top of other games. Gotta make cuts to let new life breath.

Nearly all omaha tourneys should be 6max imo, also a HU turbo/hyper omaha tourney would be fun
09-29-2015 , 05:44 PM
maybe make the 109 prog ko six max some days
09-29-2015 , 06:54 PM

change the 55 ante up into anything thats worth playing with similar buyin please
09-29-2015 , 07:40 PM
turn 5q @17:00 into 22$~33$ reg speed. The tournament is already dead.
09-30-2015 , 03:07 AM
Wouldn't like to see the Saturday $320 change. Full KO is a fun format.

i agree with bolded
09-30-2015 , 04:49 AM
There really needs to be some big changes made to satellite structures. I mean, who in their right mind would play the one below. The starting stack reaches 10BB after 15 minutes, antes start waaaay too late, heaps of key blind levels missing, it's just awful.

09-30-2015 , 05:48 AM
yeah deff need 1500 startstack, antes in 50/100 the latest, bb 250/500 and bb 500/1k from what i see there.
09-30-2015 , 06:53 AM
please do something increase the offering of high stakes tournaments. The Thursday Thrill and the Weekender have been nice additions, but something should definitely be done to sweeten Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The tournament offerings on those days are so boring. It's hard to get fired up to play a session on those days and I know a lot of other high stakes mtt regs feel the same way. Can't you just allow the regs to battle in something exciting on every day of the week?

+1

I don't agree with 320 sko change though, 1st bounty in PSKOs is only 1/4 buyin, while in SKO it is 1/2. So the 320 SKO's early stages are the most fun and exciting than any other mtt across the site.

Id love the Tournament format of a MTT with KO for Top 36 or 72 or 144...
Playing down to like the top 72 Players and after that its Heads up till the Final Table (9 left)
Top 72 play depending on their Chipsstack in a KO Format.
1st vs 72th
2nd vs 71th
3rd vs 70th etc..


Another System which is used in all Trading Card Games is the Swiss-System (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss-system_tournament)

That would bring a lot of fun into the game..
Everyone would stay in the Tournament till the last Round before the Knockout period.

Still waiting for the day when Pokerstars realizes that the main reason why Hobby players stop playing Poker is because they got bored of the Game.. Thats why Poker needs some new Tournament Systems.. PSKO was great.., but there are so much more possibilities.

Hope you finally read this post lol.

All of the test tournaments did really well. There are no detailed plans to introduce them into the regular schedule, but I'd happily replace struggling micro tournaments with some new iterations. Zoom should be bigger in MTTs!

You would 100% eliminate stalling during the tournament and when it's heads up, players are still playing with integrity due to the final bounty being sizable.
Walk before you can run.

I'll pass this along, though I'm not sure the 45/90/180 man offering will be changing.

I'm not against it. I'm working on some ideas for the main schedule. No worries though, you'll all have plenty to play in the coming weeks and months.

I am a big proponent of variable level times. There is some very interesting development on the horizon to do this in a dynamic way.

I pointed this out and they were changed to turbo deep. Enjoy!

PSKO proved once again to be really popular during WCOOP. Why not adding a few mid-high buy-ins? As it was stated a few times, not a single 1 reg speed PSKO between 82$ and 1'050$ on the regular schedule. This is a complete non sense to me!
09-30-2015 , 12:28 PM
Yea, it's time for a pko major every sunday.
09-30-2015 , 12:31 PM
The reason is simple, no 109fo has been removed since PSKO has been added and we haven't had any additions at that buyin level for ages.

We're still basically waiting for that schedule overhaul that Bryan promised us for December 2013. Hopefully Luke can give us something to smile about this fall.
