I would imagine we'll learn more after Global's Christmas promotion.

so they still cant comment on anything in over a week in their paid for subforum, but can get that up and running, and pay for poker media sites to publish articles attracting more regs? Nice... Looking forward to it...

Last I checked, Global was assisting them, or at least one of them. They've proven to be very helpful in the past when you email them, don't see why that would change now.

You're acting like Global is the only site that has had issues, they all have issues. There are plenty of options out there to choose from if this one doesn't make you happy.

I have every right to post my findings and opinions here just as you and others choose to be oblivious or indifferent about things

Is the blind and chip structure the same in the eagle cup as they are for their normal mtts? 2000 chips and the blinds huge super fast?

Hopefully!

Fast structures are good for a month-long tournament series; it gets 1-tabling people on to the next one and people make big mistakes in shallow stack scenarios anyway.

Little off topic, but **** yawnments. You guys can battle it out for this one... 2 and 3 outed to death for 2 straight months is not my thing. Back to cash I go.

Oh yes please bring back the Eagle Cup, tournaments are always great for the site ecosystem. Cash games will be filled with nothing but JaredPokers.

I also don't like the fact that global put a stop to sharkscope tracking our games. It was fun having the competition of seeing who's who amongst the regs. That is good for the games imo.

lmao sharkscope and any public results sharing certainly does not benefit the games but I'd love to hear why you think that

Explain your logic of why it is bad for the games first

I've not played since I made my post about withdrawing. Doesn't mean I wouldn't like to and ain't holding out hope that they will compromise on some recent changes they made and deposit and play again. I love the soft player pool but the stt structures are just too much for me and that's my game of choice, and the MTT schedule isn't that appealing to me I might run it along with a couple other sites but can't give GP all my stt and mtt action the way they have it set up now that is all.

he probably means that regs who pay for the svc can search out everyone and tailor their play accordingly based on opp's roi or lack of. Also some players will call out others based on poor results so that can be unfriendly for recs too.

I can see the reasoning behind it.. I've made plenty from this game and never had my results hidden. I guess to each their own though... I just found it convenient to be able to track results without manually doing so. It was also nice to have some friendly competition with other regs.
