What's even the point now. The ship has sailed, wcoop will make everything explode and stars will pat themselves on the back for lowballing prior to it

I've basically stopped playing on Greedstars now except for SCOOP/WCOOP when they have decent deep tourneys. I check in here from time to time hoping the schedule has been repaired but all I see is more fast formats with unbeatable rake and new clever schemes to disguise that, like "bubble rush".

Unfortunately there is no give on the key issues like rake, tourney speed, pay-out percentages etc. Extending your ship analogy, no amount of shuffling the chairs on the Titanic will do anything about the fact that it is sinking.

Hey all,

The following changes are in place for Monday:
  1. 450/900, 1,100/2,200, and 2,200/4,400 levels have been added to non-major Bubble Rush tournaments.
  2. 2,250/4,500 and 7,000/14,000 levels have been added to major Bubble Rush tournaments.
  3. The Weekender is now a Phase tournament with a single Phase 1 @ 11:30 ET on Friday and Saturday.
  4. The Supersonics have bigger antes to align them with other hyper-turbos in the schedule.
  5. Majors have been checked for guarantee increases.
  6. A handful of micro-stakes tournaments have been added to the schedule. Rather than list them, I encourage you to remove your filters and type "New Tournament!" in the search box.
  7. The $11 freezeout @ 14:45 ET has been converted to "The Open". This is similar to "The Lex Veldhuis Open" in that if you final table it twice in a week (three for Lex's), it will be renamed to "The [Your UserID here] Open".
  8. A new satellite has been added to the Bounty Builder $7.50 at peak time. Similar to the $16.50 satellite to the Bounty Builder $109 at 12:22 ET, this satellite will only be available from the tournament lobby itself. This is an extension of an existing test.

I'm out of office all next week. GL in WCOOP!

won't play any bubble rush mtts until rake is lowered. 100+9$ etc is just outrageous for mainly a hyper tournament. I also don't see the new micro stakes tournaments you are talking about, the only new tournaments I see are the bubble rush ones.

I'd really like to be a part of this. I've been grinding omaha mtts on stars basically since they started and think I could be helpful. Also I'm not a jackass...

Luke. The rake NEEDS to be reduced in bubble rush. I refuse to pay the same rake as a sixmax deepstack well structured tournament in a hyper that turns into a turbo halfway in. Sure the idea is nice but the rake is a joke. Please don't fk this great idea so much

Adding 3 more Blindlevels doens`t help much.. I think thats no reason for anyone to click them now unless they have an overlay.
"The Open" sounds like a random Idea.

I mean there are so many good ideas here for Bubble Rush MTTs and the worst idea has been choosen.

Asked this a long time ago.

Why are you so reluctant to create more sats for the omanias Luke?
Also more non-6max omaha and omaha hilow would be great.

+1 I like the idea too, nice to have different types ot tournaments. It's sad that the most of the regs play them regardless and they don't care.(played it once bc there was a bigoverlay, but thats it)

Yeah I never grind Saturday's because of those bounty builders too. During WCOOP would be so nice if they were different tournaments, but I guess no chance.

I don't care for bounty builders on saturday, because I don't play KO. Otoh I got 0 games to join that are in late reg.

yea me too

also if BB nad PKOs because you are not allowed to chop knos you should really make #1 and #2 get same prize money and play for knos

i watch other night this JasonbSomerville twitch he get HU in 1K thrill and they had 12k and 14 bounties and different from #2 => #1 was 10k but if you chop it you need to leave 2,5k behind for the winner (thats only 7,5k to chop 7buyins to chop between first and second) which is very absurd 29k for #2 and 39k for #1 when even without payjump HU match is for 26k$ (one who win will take the others bounty and keep his which almost = prize money for #2, which means winner takes almost 2,5x then #2)

Yeah, I don't play Saturdays either bc 75% is too much. But I understand that others might love this 75%PKO.

what are the odds that the 100k starts 3 handed (20 player guarantee) and they go all in and chop first hand?
