Alright cool, I think it should go well.

Here is the problem though:

I do not believe the majority of poker players have the luxury of being able to target satellites in the way they necessarily want.

I can understand if you're concerned about voucher satellites cutting into the regular satellites where people start playing them instead, but I'm just not sure if that's entirely true in the sense that the majority of players are recs and some are slightly more serious recs who like to be able to go for big scores. While having hyper sattys lets them do that, we just can't be sure if more people or at least the same amount of people not cutting into your profit would play the slightly longer voucher sattys.

I guess it's hard to say as it is personal preference and you guys don't want to start making less money on sattys, but I'm just giving my perspective as someone who plays semi seriously but also has a schedule outside of poker, there are days I would love to fire up 10+ tournies, but the schedule does not allow me as the ones I want to play have already passed. Voucher sattys would allow me the flexibility to put in good volume every day and I think could help the following player profile:

Someone who is semi serious who can only put in 1 hour certain days or 3-4 hours other days aka someone that may love to play a tournament but scheduling will not allow them to play and thus they are relegated to what the immediate hour schedule (since they won't be able to finish the tounries they start after that) allows them to play

Theoretically you could be bleeding money to the competitors anyways as nobody can have an hour with tons of tournies that someone that can only play 3-4 hours can play, so voucher sattys may allow you to retain that individual to your website.

I could be speaking out of my ass and you may have better models than me in this case, but it's just a suggestion and one that I know I would love and seems like a few other people ITT have voiced a desire for.

Maybe you can title them "Zoom limit XYZ (Play Up To 300 Hands Per Hour!)" to bring in the fishies, if they see tons of hands and hyper, I think they should be interested or you guys could send an email explaining the new format and why they should play it, that would naturally convert people I'm sure.

I honestly think you guys could have good success running them hourly as everyone would love them, fishes get tons of action, regs can fit them in when there are lulls in their schedule (they're also quicker than reg zoom which can still take 3-4 hours to finish).

@luke about T$
i dont think is same => when player send T$ is not cashing out and $$ are not out of sistem he is just sending them for some other guy to play with them, is same as u give MTT ticket for some one right? u

@Luke Overall, Winter Series went pretty well, but I want to mention up front that Turbo Series will not be tiered. With that in mind, if you wanted to satellite into the Turbo Series Main Event, what would you be looking for?

Well I am not sure how much $ was previously TCOOP ME, like round 700$ or so and I never played TCOOP over 55$ I think, because its is turbo and mostly I dont have the gold. For a player, who grind 1.5$ SNG, there is no way to try to qualify to that big event. But for some tourneys up to 55$ if I feel good, I should try to. Like when there is a COOP series it depends what $ i have and what amount I can spent on. Sometimes I have between 400-900$ and I try to play all 27$ that I like and try to satellite to 55,109,215$ (9max non/ko) via deepest satellits. Most of the time I dont have separate roll for the series and I filter the sats that are in my bankroll range if I have the time to play, stay longer during the night and feel good.

If you don't want to tier turbo series then boost gtd of micro and low turbos during that timeframe.

Exactly this happened live. And will happen again online as Luke mentioned.

A reminder.
Just one other player with this problem ?
What is a way to solve this or have technical team involved ?

H, M and L only?

Or Micro SCOOP can happen this year? In May again?

And what about MicroMillions. You will run at least one version of the series this year? August?

Nice, 10 million gtd Sunday million and 1 million gtd Storm, on Superbowl Sunday.

Tournaments will be 4.5 and 5.5hrs in when it starts....

People will moan about anything

We all love this amazing american sports event where in 3 hours we get to see combined 6 minutes of sports and then replays breaks and commercials.

Winter Series was very good! PokerStars should do more events with different tiers. I was champion of an event in this last series and I look forward to the Turbo Series.

Do not forget mixed games!

oh no, a big sports event in us, we gonna have sick overlay if all those us players are gonna watch tv instead of going to play.

oh wait, there is ban for online poker in USA

Yah I mean 90% of stars customers are Russians, Brazilians, Europe, Asia, NZ. Most don't give a toss about the Super Bowl. It's only people from canada which cant be more then 10% market share probably less.

Luke, there is an MTT with 50 min of late reg only. Can you make it at least 1 hour please? 08:50 CET $2.20 NLHE $300 Gtd (2183170699) 15.01.2018

$27 Bubble Rush?

Just to let you know Luke, the new 12 PKO PLO isn't a PKO tourny, we have no bounties as it currently stands.

Couldn't find anything about it online, but Stars now has 'Stars First' with some nice promotions and I'm a member.

This is the 1st time I got a MTT challenge, and a pretty cool one: 50% rake-back effectively.

nvm.. math is hard

Got this promo too, for the third time now in past couple of months. Never heard of anything called "Stars First" though. What's that supposed to be?

^^
No idea what it is, but it says "Stars First" in the challenge window for the challenges that are only open to invited players (it's in the image).

Doesn't look like I got it .

not quite 50% since it is not very easy to play exactly 20 games at minimum rate in a week. I threw in a bunch of 16.5 last week for example.
got it two weeks in a row now. is indeed a nice gesture.
