[PartyPoker] Ex-Official thread - Page 988 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

This isn't a universal waitlist, it's just a move to quick seating, unless i'm misunderstanding something.

I'd like a real universal waitlist, where I could join any table with, for example, 3 or more players. I don't want to start a table or play HU when I have 12 tables already.

+1

I play 12 tables.
Now I cant play more than 6 tables. Because I dont want to play table with three players or less. I want to sit at the table with at least 4.
And after the update i cant.
I will not be playing HU while I am full of action.

Thank you of fast reply.
Could you pass on to the promotional team or to whatever/whoever decides these things that it would be nice to inform us beforehand the actual change because of obvious reasons. Me for example, I just lost 460usd because of that.

This solution is bad for multitablers. They either have to play HU while having already lots of 6max action or they have to constantly look at the lobby and try to quick seat in the right moment. It's so annoying. I thought the idea was to make it easy and simple but as a matter of fact it was easier before with TST on the side. I never liked it because I want to play and not table and/or seat select so I hoped it's gonna be smoother now. It's not. It's harder.

Furthermore it's bad for recreational players as well. Some of them who don't like playing HU or 3-handed and just want to join full table need to wait for free seat and stress about it. They can't join room-wide waitlist as you called it because there's no such a thing! How comfortless is that?

Calling this solution room-wide waitlist was totally misleading, by the way. It's quick seat that forces players to wait and stress about free seat or play in settings they might not want to like HU or 3-handed. It's a **** up.

This.
I cant play anymore.
I dont want to play HU. I want to play 6-max.

just curious
when the new changes (no huds) will be implemented... does this mean tracking sites like sharkscope/opr/... won't work either any longer?

what do huds have to do with ss/opr? the latter 2 are tournament results tracking websites, not hand history databases.

@Collete

previously two types of waitlists are there now one is removed and there is room wide waitlist where we can select stakes and players of our choice . or findseat on lobby i think will try to find seat at similar table stakes with minimum players guaranteed. correct me if i am wrong. and i think this is ok..

@Colette, Any idea when the second wave of updates to be implemented? Or at least do you know if it will be at least 1week, 2weeks? 3? Thanks for whatever info you can find and provide.

HHs should not be downloadable mainly to prevent selling/buying HHs. I agree that buying HHs is cheating and its hard to stop it without some radical changes. But you should allow one last screen name change for everybody and encourage all players to use it, so that previously bought HHs are of no use.

I don't want to start playing HU while I have 6 tables full of action going on.

This is ridiculous!

Perhaps Party is trying to remove all multi-tablers

It will be sometime after Pokerfest, definitely. Rob Yong said this on a Facebook group.

Edit: The stopping of downloadable hand histories, that is, don't know if that's the second wave though.

As samjack555 mentioned you can actually join room-wide waitlist with chosen criteria like number of minimum players seated. To do this you have to click on My Waitlist under Find Seat button. It's barely visible.

So there is Quick Seat, Find Seat and My Waitlist now. What a ****ing mess.

I think that My Waitlist should be next to Find Seat so everyone can see it. Just a solution for now.

Also you can't join table directly from the lobby and it sucks. You need to click Watch Table and then Seat Open.

I've had a couple of weeks off and logged in today for a session and, apart from the update that occurred when I opened the client, I've noticed nothing different at all. Everything works fine. I even played a cash game and everything worked fine.

Keep up the good work

What's going on with the bwin store?

All SnG tickets just became 3x more expensive (e.g. an $2 ticket now costs 80 points - used to be 28). Bonuses disappeared completely. Tournament dollars now cost 40 points instead of 20.

Since you get 2 points per dollar rake, it means a whopping 1.8% rakeback

And all items now cost exactly the same for gold/silver/no status members. Are there any advantages of silver/gold status left at all?

Yep vip system completely screwed.

You can buy tourney $ in bwin store? Can you make screen of that? Never could do that... I have bwin.be client. Or do you mean de 50$,100$,200$ and 500$ tourney tickets?

LOL of course. Rob Yong and the few live Dusk til dawn fish are the one's behind these changes. Hilarious! Always somehow Party listen to the 5% of customers that rake 5% of their revenues. Do they even realize most degenerate gamblers don't even know what a HUD is?

I want to join some PLO tables. There were 2 full and one with 3 ppl and sat me on empty table. This situation appears like 3 or 4 times with not full table available. Why? I waited for few minutes and leave. What is the reason for that? This makes no sense.

I hope if anyone on that forum agrees that it will create a huge incentive for people to cheat, then they will post that message to dissuade them from making the mistake of allowing one last SN change.
