Some stuff from Stadium Series they should use for the COOPs going forward, the feature tables on twitch and the FT shows were great.
They also badly need to bring back SCOOP watches and WCOOP bracelets, especially with so many random series they are running they need a way to distinguish the COOPs from the others. Especially if GG continues to run WSOP or WSOP Circut events in the future giving out bracelets and rings.
+1
Also having a lot of spotlight on successful online poker players and making them a rolemodel is essential to motivate new players to try to archive the same.
I think twitch streams are fine, but there needs to be more backround information about the players at a final table. Pretty much the stuff we see every year at the WSOP final table where the players get indroduced before the final table starts.
Almost every person knows the best chess players in the world. But in poker people who dont play the game, still think that people like Negreanu or Phil Hellmouth are the best Poker players, because they are the loudest.
Stars should even consider giving their most popular players like C.Darwin2, Lena900 etc. contracts, because they gained a hugh amount of clout in the past ~5 years due to twitch streams.
Also stuff like special avatars or badges next to the avatar for winning specific tournaments like the Sunday Million, a Scoop Event, WCOOP Event etc. would be a motivation for people to play more events.
