Got to say i m quite impressed that several changes have been implemented on such short notice following the propositions made (mainly I assume) on here.

Very glad to see that Europeans now have a much better offering. Quite sad to see the Sunday 109 rebuy go as I loved this tournament but for europeans the offering is still way better imo.

I find it amazing that there is not a blog or an article showing the complete new schedule. Not seen at least a link on here over the last 15 pages.

Still, some great work.

The Sunday Edition labeling is gone. In it's place we have all the new tournaments.

The 1k PLO is cool but I think at 530 would do much better on a Sunday. The gap from the 320s and old 215s is bridged much better and the Monday 530 was doing well so on Sunday it should do better even though players screens are full it'd be well worth the space.

Love that omanias are 6m totally agree with you cash is mostly 6m the games work better as 6m albeit it's tough for those with a lot of tables up.

The 82 o8 re entry has disappeared with seemingly no replacement? Still think there's a place for both o8 and PLO majors in the weekend the 320s will do well there's a requirement for weekly HS mixed game stuff.

Other than some of the mixed game stuff liking the look of the new schedule a lot the nlhe changes look bang on the money!

Again though please sort out the weekly 4 card stuff on the weekend Asap!

this is a spot on summation of the changes over the past couple months.

Since I play the micro buy-ins and I enjoy regular speed tournaments, I would like to ask PokerStars Luke what tournaments I am supposed to play now? I normally try to avoid turbos and semi-turbos. I guess that Winamax and 888 is the only choice I have now.

People praising luke for rolling back some of structure changes is like: praising someone for picking up half of their dog's poop, after it pooped on your sidewalk.

Him saying the changes aren't that bad, is like the person saying that we should be happy that the dog didn't poop that much...

The wu is on the FT right now, friend of mine is 4/7 and has sub 10bb. The structures need to be improved late game, not worsened.

all the 2-7sd got solid numbers today, just something to consider luke. i really feel you need to listen to a lot of the forthcoming feedback, otherwise gg to a lot of niche games and the specialised players that play them

This is what I had to time to get in this weekend before the madness begins tomorrow. I hope you all enjoy the schedule and continue to provide passionate feedback.
It seems that you forgot to adjust guaranteeds, properly. Your second (at least tied for it, NLO8) most popular tournament game has red tournaments with 22$ $2,5k guaranteed and 55$ 3k. guaranteed in Saturday at them.

Man can only say this.



Shame. Shame. Shame!
