I loved to play cash at Microgaming, but after the HUD modifications I think there is no point to play there, because you can't even review your game.

HEM/PT are allowed on non-anonymous tables. You need to use an older version as the current ones won't support MPN cash tables. There should be a thread about this with a download link to a version that will work on the official PT forum.

Yeah but be aware that means that PT will probably **** up the HHs from other skins (iPoker I know for certain)
I can't believe I'd ever say this but Party actually handled that better than MPN.

MPN is supposed to release a new software, Im hopeful its going to be better than castrated bearable software it is now.

"Carrying on with the existing software long-term simply wasn’t an option. So for the last year we’ve been building something new..."

I really hope they get decent software. Main reason why I don't play @ MPN so much is that their software is worst software @ legit site / network nowadays. Even 888 and Party shine when you compare them to MPN ancient software.

If they get rid of HUDs @ MTTs they really should prove to players that they have working security team. With recent MTT collusion events etc. I personally really prefer to play on sites which at least have working HUDs.

Considering that they have two unplayable themes and one meh it can't be worse. Hopefully it's something like that old prima client. No gimmicks just plain and simple fast client.

I've played a bit on the site but before even playing I could see there are some major flaws. I encourage the existence of other sites so I will try to help.

1) They need to once again contract their offerings. They should just scrap:

a) non holdem and PLO games offerings as it takes up valuable lobby space and doesn't generate enough rake to justify its existence.

b) switch to only 6 max format to further increase the appearance of game liquidity for cash games.

c) The SNG offerings along with MTT offerings need to be further condensed. Too much is bad. Scrap some redundant buy ins for satellites.


2) They need to adjust their MTT offerings.

a) For rebuys the structure/blind timings need to change to prevent the single entry/add on type players.

b) The MPN tour is by and large good on paper (don't know about the execution) but the offerings should stay the same. Although players should be allowed to win 2 packages online and have 1 converted into a HR seat. (make the HR the same price as a package)

c) They do alright with Guarantees considering their size. (They could be bigger of course but the industry as a whole doesn't understand the value of sub sats based on projected end times in relation to the target so can't really fault them their)


Filters are a mess.

a) Stop making things so complicated. It's ridiculous... 3 different wording of the same offering... linear expo... can't even say that word and another. On top of that custom offerings blah blah and then the filters don't save to boot. Seriously enough. Don't let players choose. Tell them how it's going to be and they will live with it. (half pot, 3 quarters bet and pot) That's all you need for preflop bets and let them adjust from there. Make post flop similar.

b) Stop having the table physically move when you click on the table. Drives anyone nuts. I suppose the new software should help with this.

c) The user playability for navigation wasn't all that bad on MPN.


4) The vip program is horrendously outdated with absolutely nothing to get excited about. 10 years this worked... and so did the "monster rebuy " but times have changed and players want quicker end results and immediate rewards.

5) Communication:

a) I never received a single email about any upcoming promotions for poker from the 2 skins I chose.

b) Time to talk on the forums. The days of the past where not listening to players on forums could cost you your business are done. Players are broken spiritually and now fully understand that Websites have full control and do as they please and have learned to accept it. Therefore the negatives of not talking are in the past and your missing out on the value of input. Example say someone from MPN wanted to know specifically what satellites need to be condensed... I couldn't help them because I can't talk to anyone from MPN.

c) The blogs are excellent. I have read them all and enjoy the content. Having said that not every poker enthusiast reads them so point b) is still valid.

Feel free to reach out if you want specifics.

Their VIP program is better than the ones at almost every other room and probably the main reason I still play there.
Do you really prefer 1% RB through chests than 30% flat? Please don't make them get any stupid ideas.

Menu > Options > Drag by title bar only

That stops the table getting dragged so easy.

Filters not saving is so triggering!

Agree on most points above, especially the MTT schedule and clutter in the lobby. They could probably do away with SNG totally and just keep fish party.

I enjoy playing there, especially cos ipoker disconnects all the time. 3 MTT series in short space of time is pretty cool also. (APAT, GCOOP and UCOOP?) Enjoyed playing them a lot so far.

Does anybody know of a tilt breaker alternative? I have hated playing without it since Micro gaming blocked it.

Yeah almost completely actually disagree with Sect7G post. Which is surprising, since I think we usually mostly agree on most points.

Though there might partially be reason of point of view. For example I would think that they should PUSH other formats, and if they strategically decide not to do that then remove them from MTT lobby because it is no use to keep them there as they never launch. Clearing up the lobby, yes. Removing other games <<< Pushing them to gain foothold.

Reason: Currently only site offering special formats really is PokerStars, and it's one of the basic reasons why after 4 years of Amaya rule hasn't do the trick like they did with Ongame. There's been networks before (Entraction / B2B) which did have good success providing niche games like Telesina etc. before, now there is none.

Current rebuys is probably actually only reason keeping MPN afloat. If they change those then ship is sure to sink (we've seen what happened to all the sites which tried to implement that change). I am super surprised they managed to keep them afloat with such guaranteeds after they started raking rebuys / add-ons, but they would surely die if they would change late registration.

Also most regs have 30% flat rakeback there. As far as I understand sites are pretty free to make their own bonus programs, as long as they don't offer anything over 30% rakeback.

They also have decent communication. They are @twitter, replying quite often. They have blogs, working home pages etc. If they've decided they have no time to be on the poker forums it's MUCH better not to be here instead of "be here, post a thing or two once in a while and ignore all the posts" like pads is doing.

The sites themselves have poor communication, I agree. Mostly sending casino and sportsbook promotions, very rarely communicating about poker. Not seen one of them around here either.

As a network MPN just has the worst available software currently. That's one main reason I don't usually play there, second being LB-grind which doesn't leave the room for other sites.

I totally get the current need to keep the status quo on late reg if they want to stay afloat... but my guess is they are trying to make an effort since they are investing in new software. Keeping sharps happy (late reg) at the expense of rec players isn't a long term solution and certainly won't help the site grow.

As for the VIP program I'm not suggesting 1%rb. If Stars had chests and the SNE rb % wasn't changed then all players (pro's too) would be grateful because there is a thrill to them. I'd like to see challenges like Unibet has... or something besides the grind of it... because that's what it is a grind and rec players don't like the grind and they don't really benefit from it. The old Stars VIP program was a grind as well... but the rewards made it worth it... but from a fun perspective there really wasn't much to it.

Farseer is right that if they make an effort for the niche games then keep them but I don't see MPN putting forth the effort when marketing money could be spent elsewhere.

And forum discussion doesn't have to be like Party or Pokerstars (2018).
It can be like Pstars 2011 or Unibet. There are very few people in Unibets thread that are insulting the reps... it has a community feel like the old SNE threads. Unibet has now taken it a step further by opening their own community site (my 1st recommendation when I started on Unibet.)
