alot of pros have asked for more high roller tourneys, so its fair - but would be nice to have a smaller equivalent running alongside as lower stakes people have nothing to look forward to for quite a while

Not a fan of the late 15:15 starts. Its probably not too bad for the Su PLO PKO as it's relatively close by the other PLOs on the same day, namely $109 (14:05) & $530 (14:30).
But 15:15 for the Sa PL08 PKO is way too far off the regular $109 (12:05) PLO8. If you indeed plan on keeping those starting slots for the KOmanias at least please swap the Sa 5cPLO <==> Sa PLO8
Thanks for the suggestions and letting us know about the satellites. All of the KOmania tournaments are performing fairly well, with the exception of the 5-Card PLO...
You basically just gave yourself the reason to swap the 5cPLO with the PLO8.
It's a win-win situation: The 5cPLO gets closer to the other major PLO mtts and the PLO8 gets closer to the regular PLO8 Omania.

There are more mid-stakish players during peak time, so that would prevent the latter to get canceled / have low numbers.
edit: and make both 8-max. Much better for small field mtts
At this point, the 11:43 and 17:43 aren't much different, now that the 17:43 tournament had its buy-in reduced to $11.
Its a pretty basic concept really. The higher the stakes, the less players. The further off peak time, the less players.
So it's self-explanatory to offer the higher stakes at 11:43.

The former 16:33 $11 was already struggling, what makes you think this mtt would work even further off peak time?
What's next? Reduce it to $7.50? Then $5?

It's soo simple really, why can't you see it?

I don't foresee us adding FLO8 to the daily Omania offering. It is simply not that popular.
Do you remember the "Daily" tournaments that you have removed? They were far more popular than anything you have on offer. At least an Omania would make up for the LO8.

making a low-rollers equivalent to that high roller series really seems like a no-brainer

Whats up with the 2-7 singledraw? U changed levels from 10 to 8 minutes. Why? Are you going to make this sneaky change to a lot of other mtt's?

about re-entry, I think it should be a function of field size and level of competition. for instance, if a game has small field and tough, making it re-entry is suicidal. whereas a huge field soft game can absorb the best players going immortal during late reg period. My point is, making a game re-entry simply based on what day it is doesn't look right. time will tell...

the sunday 500 goes way too long, 12hours+ for a tournament that starts late is just too much. please make the structure a bit faster.

The high rollers announcement really is for less than 1% of your player base, even the ME probably will gather 1.5k of the 150k+ players online on Sunday evenings.

What about all the rest of us? Why not add 1/20 or even 1/40 buy-in tournaments alongside the high rollers? There's 0% risk of one diverting traffic from the other. For my part, at this price point and with the expected level of competition, I won't even bother trying to qualify.

there will be micro millions or equivalent in December.I don't work for PS and I don't have any inside info about it but I know it(it is the same every year) so don't worry,after high rollers there will be low-mid stakes series before tcoop.
I want to add myself to the group of people that like all the new changes except the paytable.
In my opinion tourneys should pay 10%,not 20.

Nobody likes 20% payed places in mtt mby 2-3% of the players likes it,but this is "stars group" reducing variance in their favor.I personally think that payed places must be in reg and turbo no pko around 12.5 % or 10% and for bounty builders and pko 7.5%-10% ,only for hypers can be 15% cuz theres less rake on them and they really have huge variance and deep payouts 20-25% but amaya dont care about what her player pool wants not only grinders but also fun players and hobby players like me .Not even the Pros on twitch like it ,they said thats the way amaya takes more rake but in words that they dont insult PS cuz i know this is in their contract .Cuz of the ******ed payouts i skip a lot of normal reg speed tourneys i dont want FT to have bigger payouts i just want to reduce payed places by 5-7.5% and give this percent to the rest 12% of the fields which beat the 90-95% of the tourney entrances.Its big joke to beat 2000-5000 runners and end in 15-25 places for 3-6 buy ins ....or 11-12 its even bigger pain.

also I want to mention about 15$ mttsng 27-180 people-they have 17-20% paytable which makes for example :
65 people field,11 getting paid 10th-11th gets 16.24$,9th gets 18$.
For 65 people IMO 8 should get paid at most.

Sorry for posting so soon again in this thread but had to add my observation about 15$ 27-180 and can't edit my previous post.
Also sorry to mention mttsng here but the other forum seems dead to me and these tourneys are not exactly sngs so I don't think it is a big offtopic.

MicroMillions isn't great though. People have been asking for $27 ish price point series not $3.30

Is it possible to sell/transfer PCA packages to Americans who don't have PS accounts?

If so, what's the going rate for a package right now?

Need a week in the sun during winter, and deciding between PCA and Morocco.

I heard that the lowstakes series will be another 'Common Cents' like they did in 2015.

Knowing luke and pokerstars, we wont see any schedule until late January, with 1 week "to discuss the schedule"
