Hey David are there any future plans for an Android client for Hero Poker? I'm thinking about getting a tablet and it would be nice if there was a chance of being able to use it to play online Poker at some point in the future.

Hi CEO Dave, these freerolls are terrific enjoy playing them was wondering if you could maybe set up a HORSE sit n go table? The multi is great having a SNG HORSE would be awesome, Thanks Dave.

I like this idea. Maybe when PLO Summer is over you could do Mixed Game Fall with HORSE and an 8-game mix adding Badugi, A-5 lo, and 2-7 lo. I could use an excuse to learn the two lowball games to go with the Badugi habit I've acquired.

Would really be cool to have HORSE Sng's. My main game is PLO but I really have fun playing the lowball/hi-lo games just to mix it up.

Hello, I made a hero poker account before they stopped allowing U.S players. My question is, am I still able to deposit?

Yes you can.

Dave,

What was in this mornings update?

this

Is there any update when this is getting fixed?

Hi Dave, I signed on Merge before the cut off date and i've logged on once just to see the games like a month or two ago, I have never played nor deposited on my account. Is there any way I can transfer my rakeback to your skin? After reading pages and pages of praise of you and your skin, I want to be a part of it now.

Hi Dave,

Any updates on this (VIP points for cash)?

Also, any updates on the limit Hold'em rake schedule getting fixed? I know you personally have no control over that getting fixed, just wanted to know if you have heard anything from Merge on this.

Many thanks in advance!

Hey David, just wondering if I somehow missed the post that this was referring to? You posted the above on Aug 8, it's now Aug 14 and I still don't see a post in regards to August updates or the two most recent client updates. Thanks in advance, as usual!

Players, I posted a question, or two; and I noticed some others. I was wondering about the answers, so I emailed Dave. He has been traveling for 3 days, but he let me know that he would be on to answer in about 8 hours.

Guys,
well I bought a wireless mobile device, have my senior marketing manager (Dan) driving our rental as we head off to our next meet and I'm doing this from my lap top in the car- but deepest apologies for the delay, I've been in constant non stop travel and every time I think I can settle in, well something else has been coming up- we set up our new office yesterday, so hopefully myself and my staff will be rocking out the updates/promotions very very soon.

My response is below and again, anything urgent, you can always email me and I'll respond though this past week it has been on my iphone. Apologies for that as well.

Agreed, spoke in person about it last week, it is still under consideration, unfortunately I do not have further information than that.

Yes, there is progress on this, I don't have a confirmed timeline, but it is in motion right now.

They should be coming in quite soon, but truthfully I am out of the loop on this, Hero players will have full access to these players as well when it happens, but since Hero is no going back into the US market, I haven't inquired about this, but in terms of diversity of players, we are making a big push into a new market, thus all my travel and meetings.

This has been answered correctly by other players in this thread (thanks guys, I really appreciate that); but if you don't finish the entire bonus, it is lost and you have 3 months to take advantage of it.

Unfortunately no player can get rb from the network if they didn't have a rake back account on another merge skin. If you do, you can get it transfered to Hero or anywhere else, providing they (your current skin) allow you to cancel it or after 60 days of inactivity.

Still the same period of 4-6 weeks, but once Merge goes back into the US market, this should improve for everyone including Hero.

You can get the instant cash and cash rebate if you are on RB, that doesn't change whatsoever.

We just got some samples in, so we are still in the process of procurement, but we should have things sorted by early September, as stated, the VIP points can be used for tournament buy ins.

There are some plans in that direction, I can't disclose more than that at the moment, but it is on the radar.

We still need to tweak the existing set up for September, I've read all the issues with the PLO freerolls with players sitting out etc; at this point, I'm hoping to make the format much more dynamic.

The general update happen for 2 reasons, but some recent updates were that Korean language option was taken off the Hero client and merge is always updating bugs. Sorry that it isn't a more specific response, I will ask them to send me a list of the updates that are non-security related.

Yes, please read above, you can email your current network site and ask them to cancel your RB, if they do that, you can email me at marketing@heropoker.com and let me know, or after 60 days of inactivity. But please note, that I do not condone or am targeting other Merge partners as each site has their own particular value.

I hope buy September 1st, I'll have this sorted, but there will be a resolution to this.
And I do keep bringing this up with Merge, it really is in their hands, but I will continue to bring it up.

I'm so sorry about this, I wanted to do a proper Aug CEO message/update and part of that is actually making personal updates and tweaks to the current promotions and I haven't been a position to do that I for me, just writing an update without that is a bit pointless on my part. In terms of general communication, of course there is value in that, but I guess, it was just pride on my part and a need to stick to my approach even though I've been short on enough time to really sort things the way I want- also, my marketing officer, Ruby, she basically caught a sick flu after all the travel and so will what we are ramping up for-well no excuses, but even with 2 other full time staff traveling with me 24 hours a day, we've been a bit overwhelmed. But today should be the last day where I'm in constant transit, so I hope that I can get out a proper CEO update asap.

Much appreciation to everyone, we are ramping up pretty hardcore at the moment, so I hope that we can add to the network's liquidity in a big way in the next couple of months.

Ok, at the next meeting and I'm 20 mins late, but they can wait because this was long over due (not to say that this meeting isn't important -Hi Vince- if you're reading this afterwards-your meeting is important, but players come first, I'm sure you can appreciate that.)

Cheers,
David

Dave, how do I know i've been inactive for 60 days? Should I just email my skin to have them cancel my account/rakeback? I hear that is a hassle.

Does merge, more specifically the hero network allow person to person transfer for US players? Or from a Canadian to a US player?

Yes if you've deposited or your account has been verified you can do person to person transfers on Hero. You cannot however, transfer person to person from one skin to another.

any idea where to find the transfer option lol

There's a tab for transfers in the cashier.

quick question.

Does the deposit bonus for hero poker deduct from your rakeback or your points etc?

how do i find the folder where my hand histories are stored? I'm a beta tester for a new tracker and need to upload the hands manually as they don't yet have an auto detect feature.

I don't see too many Hero Poker trades in Market Place or Person to Person thread, but I posted in both places if anyone is looking to get a little bit of money on Hero Poker.

computer -> program files -> hero poker -> history -> your name

I posted awhile back about getting $33 satellite tickets usable for the big Sunday guarantee tourney.

I'd love if the same consideration could be made for the $11 satellite tickets. I won one, and there's very few tourneys that it can be used for, and they're all rebuy-addons. It's kind of silly, I'd love to be able to use it without collecting at least three, and i'd REALLY love to be able to use it on a non-NLHE event.

The hand 4 hand thing is driving me crazy. In the games with a few hundred runners and huge blinds at the final 18 having hand 4 hand on every hand from 18 down to 9 is ridiculous and causes the blinds to kill your stack if you're short at all. I know solution 'don't be short' What is the purpose of this? Please do what you can to get this fix as soon as possible.

Absolutely agree with this. There's really no reason to even begin hand for hand until there is one player from a pay jump, but for H-H with two full tables left, is really absurd. All of the rebuy tournaments are always super shallow anyways once in the money, would be great if this could be altered.
