since there's a zoom nlhe mtt on the schedule, does this mean we're gonna get a shot at getting some zoom cash to run?

come on, just stick it in the main ring game lobby for 1/2, 2/5, and 5/10...let's give it a whirl

I imagine 5/10 and 10/20 could be somewhat regularish games, honestly. In Limit O8 those aren't exactly high stakes.

Please add a full table/9 man OMAHA HI/LO tourney to the NJ SCOOP series. It is guaranteed to be a success.

Could you possibly feed this back to the development team as something to prioritize in a future ios app update?
This please.

I have asked before several days ago in this thread with no response. So, I will ask again. When is this sound issue going to be fixed??? It has been several weeks already and I know for a fact that there are a number of players who would rather be clearing their bonuses on stars, but are still playing on other sites due to this issue, including myself.

Can we get some kind of update please?
The new client update is pending DGE approval. When there is a concrete date I will update players here.

Dylan said there will be VIP parties. He said that. I assume they will be in AC.

Most poker player are actually guys. You don't have to have sex with them though.

There are also girls in AC. I've been to AC many times and I have seen females.

So if you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, don't. But there will be parties and I will be there even if all guys.
We are planning a party in AC in May that will be announced soon. Players will be allowed to bring a guest to the party which means that, hypothetically, there could be one of these "females" that are being referenced.

I will pass on the feedback. However, none of our mobile apps currently support waiting list functionality and there are no immediate plans to add it, so I wouldn't expect this to be changed anytime soon.

Can't fix sound, but lets add more SPIN N GOS!!!!!! Can't add legitimate poker sit n gos for omaha and omaha hilo, but pstars has absolutely no problem sucking more money out of our games by adding higher stake spin n gos. Wish somebody would start a petition to get these things moved to the casino lobby, where they belong IMO.

look at it like this spin n go's are nothing more than VERY FAST 3 MAN SIT N GO w only 1 payout (which has the potential to pay bigger than your traditional sng format)

hows is this so hard to comprehend?? i forgot online poker is 100% skill w no luck & no gambling element whatsoever. your mad because the fish and the rec/bums you hunt because your so good might not have money to lose to you because of them. yet they might have more to throw your way if they hit a few. the smarter fish/rec wont play the higher stakes cash bcuz of the "riggie" syndrome

anyways +1 to omaha hi/lo full ring tourney for may

No, I'm mad because they don't give a damn about anything other than the spin n gos. I wish I was "so good" then I'd probably grind them (I'm 1-0 on them and I don't plan on playing again). I just want them to pay equal attention to the tourneys and sit n gos! They only have omaha heads up sit n gos, how the hell is this acceptable? Instead of fixing this, they add another stupid spin n go. I'm just frustrated really. I been waiting way too long for these guys to come back in town, I won't stop petitioning for omaha hi/lo sit n gos and a more reasonably timed o8 tourney (somewhere between 7pm-9pm).

My whole thing is; are they limiting sit n go options because they want us to spend our money on the spin-n-gos? That is my main concern!
04-05-2016 , 10:16 AM
Hey.

Writing here because i am really disapointted on Pokerstars
Also i let you know that i have a terrible english.

Anyway, latelly i get my biggest online Poker hit . That was a amesowe feeling . I get sleep after that win only about 2hour.. i was so happy
If i wake up and go to the computer and tried to log in on my stars acccount i get the message, my account is frozen. Never seen something like that. I check my email and see, they ask my documents.. I sent it and started waiting. Now is gone 6 days and i still wait. Pokerstars didnt ask me anything, didnt want to see anything. I am really scared. I know, i havent done nothing wrong, but if they can keep my account locked of and dont answer for meils, what i sent.. if they can keep it 6 days, then they can keep it also 6 months? Its so sick whats going on imo .

I have no idea what do you. i was thinking all is clear on 72h. Its really bad feeling if you win a big cash and after that you cant check your account and no one even answer to you.

Is there anything what i can do, to get answers , why is my acount still frozen . What is the maximum time, they can locket it without a reason?

many waited a long time for their return but so many dont realize it is not the same company run by the same people. the operators business models are changing rapidly in the last year.

i agree they need some omaha hi/lo sngs. as the hi/lo variant is far more neglected. cant say im up to date on current hi/lo sng offerings in nj as i stopped looking for them because at the lower buy ins when i did see them offered i never saw them running. (not to say they didnt run)

that being said the sng lobby for stars has tumbleweeds daily. it doesnt seem like very many of the 1k+ people signed in are even looking in that tab. other sites arent too much better (but at least they do have a bunch running when they dont have sng leaderboards) whats the rush because at this rate if they put it in soon they'd sparesly run which would frustrate you even more
04-05-2016 , 12:33 PM
The rush is I have a bonus to clear, lol. 888/wsop run o8 sit n gos and they run regularly. I can get 4-5 tables running at the same time during peak playing hours.

tumbleweeds daily? What's that?

Cmon bro, you are getting in their face demanding that they offer something they currently don't to help you earn the free money they are giving you

Their offerings were there for you to see when you made the deposit

I'd be willing to opt out of my bonus if they were to offer omaha hi/lo sit n gos. I just meant that the sooner they offer o8, the better, for me personally. Infact, I'll run a $100 freeroll if you guys can help my case, and o8 sit n gos (minus heads-up) are offered by this Sunday!
04-05-2016 , 01:37 PM

Yeah but I don't think this is a conspiracy to keep you away from your bonus...

Who knows what's going behind the scenes but in general this has been a good thread and things have been updated/added due to comments here

I think it's a conspiracy to keep players at the spin-n-go tables, but I hope I'm wrong. I merely mentioned my bonus, half jokingly, and it really has nothing to do with me wanting to play omaha hi lo sit n gos for the rest of my NJ life.
