nice add with the 22$ 6max PSKO but add antes a little earlier , like in the 44$ 6max PSKO.
also for the love of god ADD 4$r/a 3x turbo sattelites for the Thursday Thrill so small stakes players can have a chance to qualify !!!
04-02-2015 , 10:02 PM
1k 2nd chances?!?!!?!? Not sure if you dont like money or?

Hey Bryan, can you give us any more details when/if the Big 215 / big 82 / hot 82 and the saturday 700-1k tournament is coming up soon?

You also said something about a Big 320, would be interesting to hear your discussion regarding this.

The 109 Re-Entry 20k gtd would be much better for the players and for PokerStars if it was instead the "Hot 162". It would get a much bigger field than this, would rake more on average per player and overall, and would be a great mid-day turbo.

Should have like a 50k GTD to start, and would likely end up being able to be raised to 60k+ in the future.

Never playing the 109 2x would play h162 most days

-1 to antes from the very start (although i'm enjoying them for the start in 180s), agree with roscoe as a middle ground start them earlier then normal but not from the start.

how about normal satties to it w/ 25-50 seats guaranteed instead of that ****, like deadline satties during series

why is this once loved mtt site now slowly showing us that they aint the best in the market and the mtts are becoming a bit of a to put it blunt a cluster****, i hope it all resolves and gets better but i do fear the way they are going, though i do have some hopes, hopefully some more action is done sooner rather than later , also +1000 on being more phase tournys, dunno why you kicked them out of ftp also but hey ho whatever..

Great suggestions and constructive feedback. I'm sure they'll get to work on putting those things into action straight away.

This would be a great change. I never play 109t reentry, but I would always play the hot 162. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Also very important to set a reasonable gtd from start, and not just like (1-2k), that is basically like having no gtd at all, and people do look at the guarantees before registering a tournament. I think that is pretty clear by now.

Replacing the 109 re-entry with the Hot $162 is a great idea. Stars might counter with the fact that the lobby would get over-saturated with hots/bigs (there’s the Hot $16.5 half an hour earlier and Hot $75 half an hour later), but especially during peak hours I think it makes more sense to have a cleaner schedule with 4 bigs/hots every hour instead of a schedule with only 2 ‘special’ tourneys per hour and lots of random clutter inbetween.
Revive a couple of rebuy tourneys by adding earlier antes, making them red and giving them some satellites and all would be well in the universe.

Something like:

18:00 Big 22
18:15 Red 100r
18:30 Hot 11
18:45 Hot 215
19:00 Big 109
19:15 Red 33r
19:30 Hot 16.5
19:45 Hot 162
20:00 Big 11
20:15 Red 3r
20:30 Big 215 (Sunday Million on Sunday)
20:45 Hot 75
21:00 Big 55
21:15 Red 55r
21:30 Hot 55
21:45 Hot 7.5
22:00 Big 162

This would be great.

Yup, 3x HS rebuys and one micro sounds amazing. Make 19:15 or 21:15 11r for some balance instead.
04-03-2015 , 09:15 AM
ya agree it has too much HS. Didn't really think it through tbh, just made up this schedule by making the existing rebuys near these slots 'red'. Could make the current 11r at 22:00 a red rebuy at 22:15, or indeed replace the 21:15 55r proposal (20:45 till 21:30 is all 55+ so def not ideal).

It's just a proposal anyway, stars will do as they see fit
04-03-2015 , 10:54 AM
Yeah why are satties offering so horrible... I feel this needs to be addressed..... Nice satties should run all week to all the good stuff..
04-03-2015 , 01:01 PM
Need a nice big buyin on Friday Imo

its probably just been the current way bc of live where u cant have the small chips and it slows the game down a bit

this is probably the 40-50th seperate post ive seen about reviving the $11r £3r $5r and $33-$55r can you try addressing this brian 888s thursday $13r gets $9k forthe win on a thursday your flagship $11r 20k doesnt get that on a sunday it used to be 20k 10k minimum and chunks on a sunday

REVIVE THE REBUYS PLEASE u rake reebs for UK so ur printing money with the revive the rebuys suggestion and regs and recs alike love these games no one wants to reg the $33r $6k guarantee when ipoker has a €25r 12k on at same time

the $22 cubed is in the same boat its beyond withered now should just make it a $22r and bring in early antes
04-03-2015 , 03:17 PM
all the cubes are so boring with a stack like 6k or 9k and no antes with blinds 25/50.......
