Please take a look at the schedule below and let us know what you think. You can reply here in this thread, by sending me a PM, or by writing to us directly in an email to tcoop at pokerstars dot com. Thank you in advance for taking the time to help us give our players the best championship-level turbo tournament series possible!

Can we have more higher buy ins with tons of satellites to them?

Ultra deep means 50k stack?

Lower hyper rake to 2%, lower rake on turbos $50+ to 5%, change any of the re-entries to 2x/3x chances.

This schedule itself needs a lot of changes as well, but like in previous years any suggestions were mostly ignored. Also as I expect the incompetency to be worse and the amount you guys care to be less; I'm confident anything stated ITT will be on deaf ears.

I love turbos, this series was started in large part because of a thread I created and encouraged so many friends of mine to email stars and post in that thread, yet due to the predatory rake and clear incompetence shown by Amaya I may not play this year.

schedule is really lacking 27-109$ 9 man NLH FO's which is what the majority of recreational players like to play. The Hotter tourneys will get more action during this time tho, so maybe this is fine.

No it isn't, they know what they are doing! The players don't understand how rake is good for them, and that more games = better!

Watch as they make 0 real* changes again to a poor excuse of a series.

My suggestion would be to start TCOOP on Wednesday, January 21 to make room for at least 5 more events like $27 NLH 9man re-entry's, $55 9man cubed's and $109 9man FO's

Same old same old. Too many gimmicks, not enough 9 handed/6handed 109-215s

Here is my personal, selfish opinion - it takes some planning, energy, and time to travel out of the USA. I like to schedule my online trips around these series, but this one is so small it hardly registers.

Anyone who would travel outside the usa just to play a week of crapshoot turbos and hyperturbos with gigantic fields has a gambling problem.

i like the tcoop schedule very much: especially good is that you have many 6-max, good buyins, everything turbo or hyper and many different games.

i only say this once but if the rake for this special tournament series is following your latest developements i will skip most of them (read: all if i read idealistic literature before), i hope some regs follow suit.


(didnt look at schedule, doesnt really matter if u cant beat the rake?)
