And you guys are taking a lot of rake out of the games so this really is nowhere near too much to ask.

It's a <5 min change behind the scenes that will please many customers and probably lead to more players playing the games and therefore higher overall volume
Would also love to see 15/30 added in both spins and husngs here, but it's all been suggested before and nothing has been done unfortunately.

Take a step back and self reflect, you are bragging about grinding out a poverty level living. It took me days to reply because I forgot about you, seriously. I have a career with benefits, you have nothing but a $15 hyper bankroll and an ego to match lol.

I just started playing these on here. Had only played cash games previously. I'm going to start trying out some MTT's, too. I've never dove into the tournaments anywhere near as much as I have cash and I guess I should get around to that.

I believe that NJ players cannot play on Global, according to an online review of Global.

Nothing in the T&C says anything about NJ being excluded. Aside from Washington, US outlying territories, and Quebec, everyone in the US and Canada is allowed to play on GP.

Really wish Global would fix the sng blind structure to go along with other sites that has been working for years dunno why they have to try and make tehre own blind structure the other sites have it right if it isnt broke dont fix it. Also thanks for finally adding Hu sngs after a year even tho these are essentially super turbo hu sngs can you please add some regular speed HU sngs with slower blinds.

Would anybody be able to recommend any sites other than global for SNGs? I live in Maryland if that makes a difference.

Also, do any other sites have 9man non turbos over $40? not sure why Global wouldn't have higher stakes non turbos.....

I sharkscoped the leaderboard for count of regular 9 man games between $36-$100, and unfortunately you're leading the pack along with 16 other Global players. So there isn't much to work with. Probably get a couple games on Chico and Ignition/Bovada.

Global hits a huge traffic wall at the $50 level for spins and for sng's, just the way it is I suppose.

They don't really exist. 9 mans are a pretty dead format at higher stakes Global is pretty much your only option

Betonline is your 2nd best option and according to sharkscope they're really dead at anything >$15. There's been 85 unique players in $30 9 man reg speeds this month. Consider the $40s seem pretty dry on global there's been over 6x as many different players in the $40s on global as compared to the $30s on BOL.


However, turbo 9 mans on other sites are close to similar as regular speed on global. As global reg speeds are only 8 mins (most other sites are 10/12 min for reg speed) and global has less blind levels as I'm sure you know.


So the turbos on BOL/Bovada are really only slightly faster. Bovada at nights has some $50s that pop off. Combine that with betonline turbos and reg speeds and you could definitely get at least some extra volume in

It is hard to see...

Sometimes I am guilty of folding a blind or two before I notice they are sitting out.

In my experience, it is far easier for me to notice that somebody is sitting out when I have the player's avatars showing.

Playergohome has become a joke and an embarrassment. Senility, maybe? At any rate, the game has passed him by.

I'm not on 24/7 but I haven't noticed it being any different than any other time this year.

The issue is that the player pool is so small that you need 2 regs in the pool in order to get 20 games/hr. With 2 regs the lobbies will be big enough that the recs will jump in knowing that the game is about to start. If you are unlucky enough to be on at a time when you're the only reg in the pool the lobbies are pretty slow loading because people jump in and out, looking for the first one that'll fire.

Any help? I'm still not really sure.

Can somebody explain how the SNG table registrations work , like how long do tables sit in registration period before they reset the table and kick out the players. I have noticed this happens and am new to SNGs so curious about the timing and stuff if somebody knows.
12-04-2019 , 04:42 PM
Hey guys, cry_me_a_river here. I just started playing 9 seat SnG's on Global mostly for a change of pace from Ignition/Bovada. I've liked the site so far, but recently I logged into my account and it looks like Global decided to manually take over $200 from my account... this is 7 buy-ins at the stakes I play!

No emails, no notifications, no explanations. I just submitted a support ticket and am hoping to hear back soon.

Has this happened to anyone else? My transaction history shows this as a manual adjustment.
