Why do you think the best team almost always wins in the NBA playoffs and not in the NFL? It's a 7 game series compared to 1 and done.
Not to mention how unfair it is in the regular MTTs when you've played for 3 44 minutes and someone buys in with a minute to go >10 from the $ and wins 5 straight all ins and wins the tournament by playing for an hour.
Quit blindly defending this POS site and acknowledge the issues with this format and use your "pull" to help make things better.
Amen, preach on man.
These guarantees are a joke... play 4 hours just to min-cash a crappy guaranteed MTT. On top of that, take away features like the tagging system, make the structure worse for all MTTs that don't have 5K stacks and 15 min. blinds to 10 min. blinds and 3K stacks (80% of all scheduled MTT's) plus basic stuff like how many players are on the site playing cash/MTT's. Are you kidding me? The least you could do to the remaining loyal customers is give them decent structures in ALL MTT's, not just the ones that run a couple times a day like the Nightly and Noon MTT's.
I can't wait for a REAL poker site to accept US players in FLA/CHI already. So ready to quit Merge. It just gets worse and worse, what's next? Take out the color-coding system (now the only way to categorize players) and the ability to take notes?
I've been playing on Merge exclusively for the last 3-3.5 years and I can say without a doubt that things are and have been going in the WRONG direction.
I haven't even mentioned those tourney pop up ads that tell you a certain MTT is still open for reg... 3.5 hrs into the MTT. Real d-bag move. You can tell Merge is doing everything in their power to conceal any evidence of their site going under just to screw the remaining customers for as much as they can. This is the only site I've ever played on that WON'T tell you how many are playing cash/MTT's... gee, I wonder why? The player points system... LMFAO, that's joke #2.
Squeeze as much $ as you can from your customers Merge before other sites open up to US players and leave you in the dust. Sounds like a great business model. I'm sure you'd survive once all the US players left. The idiots that still play on Merge when PS is available to them out of the US would support your business... the only ones dumber than Merge management.
I mean, do you really think Merge can profit to stay open off the U.S. rec's while most reg's leave the site? All your promotions are weak, you got a crappy Maximus or OPS series every couple of months which are the same regurgitated MTT's w/ different names and they're getting worse because less people are interested and the guarantees keep going down. I don't know what's worse, the way this site is being run in the past 1.5 years or me still playing on this BS site due to very limited options OR the fact Merge is just crapping all over the remaining loyal regs.
I know one thing, I've made my last deposit on any Merge site and will be depositing on Bodog before I re-deposit on this "poker site".
I don't even care if they go belly up tomorrow, even if I lost a couple hundred in my BR... at least I know someone would be taking their place soon. Yea, Merge... you really know how to treat your customers. I wouldn't mind losing my BR once you went bust if it meant I had other options soon. What does that say about how your customers feel about your "service"? POS site, good riddance. U.S. players continue to be slapped in the face putting up with these awful options while the rest of the world gets to play on PS and FT, FTW and F Merge.
