And after looking at this a little closer I can see what all the frustration is about. This is among the worst changes of all times.

Unfortunately quite a rake increase in non-turbo sngs.
Bad changes!

The 180-player MTT Sit & Gos were originally deployed with the wrong structure. This is being corrected as I type. Thanks for your patience.

What's with the 45 seond time bank? So fish can get even more pissed off cause regs will now hold them up even longer by loading up more games at once???

What about the heads up lobbies? are they meant for regs to join 20 of them at a time and just sit around waiting for fish?

About time the rake on HUSNGS got lowered a little.

Too bad only $5 hyper-turbos were implemented though. Doubt anyone who plays higher will even bother testing them out.

PokerStars, if you are going to keep these buy-ins for the 45 man SNGs, can you at least change this stupid structure as it was before, remove that 45s timebank and show just one SNG in the lobby for each level? This is getting really frustrating and you are going to kill the games completely.

The structure on the $5 Hypers is silly. Keep it as it was and they'll be amazing.

Get rid of the delay before a SNG starts.

These changes are so terrible as is...
