Around Thanksgiving i thought it was pretty good (minus the rakeback). I dunno what this crap is now. I thought they were trending in the right direction if they would have added some kind of VIP.
WPN also has screwed the lower buy-ins up trying to make everything linked to Cyclones...hard to play anywhere in the US in you aren't playing mid stakes NLHE tourney's non stop. Traffic sucks on WPN now too. If BOL didn't have PLO8 SNG's i would cash out and not play here....Only thing left for me to play here.

registered for a $7 Turbo PKO 6's... sat at 2/6 registered for about 35 minutes... as soon as the 3rd person registered, it IMMEDIATELY filled up... seating scripts HAD to have been used IMO

Definitely not. You even answered why this would happen in the same post. Recreational players don't want to wait 35 minutes for an SNG game to load. So they join games that are ready to go off. Important lesson for BetOnline to learn and basically the summary of my last post.

Bring back the leaderboards and your SNG action will come back BOL.

Oh Dear, I thought the missions were a separate free roll from cash. They combine them. That is underwhelming

why would you bring back the SnG LB and then cap us to an 8 table limit? do you hate having lots of games run? if i cant play over 8 games than another site is going to get half my action.

also, why do i have to opt into the promo why isnt it automatic? i played 2 days of hundreds of games and get no points because i didnt know i had to opt in

Do Windfalls count?

is there not a sng LB this week? i wake up early to get a good start and then i go to opt in because i got ****ed for not opting in last week, and now theres no LB??? when it says "weekly" youd think it lasts more than one week. just another way you guys are ****ing over the grinders.

Same question as PP, but for the weekly cash game race.

From the language used in the promotions page on your site, it seemed that these races would be ongoing. IIRC, in the past the races/leaderboards used to re-spawn on Sundays in the evening EST. Maybe the 2nd set of races are going off at like 8PM EST like in the past?

Anyway, stuff like this should probably be communicated a bit ahead of time so people like PP aren't punished for trying to take advantage.

after talking to live support for almost 2 hours yesterday all they told me to do was keep checking back to see if the leaderboards are running. I wake up this morning and see they have been going for quite some time and that none of my points from sunday(the day it was supposed to start) got counted again. you guys continue to prove week after week why you are the nut low for online poker in the US. you have the best software but somehow the worst traffic. embarrassing

To be fair, noone else's points counted either, but agreed that it's super weird that the lbs didn't respawn when they were supposed to.

1. Max tables you can play on sngs on betonline? Is it really only 8 as someone mentioned?


2. The leaderboard for sng leaderboard.. you get same amount of points whether you get 1st in a 1.50 sng vs a 15 dollar sng? Is that right? So someone who plays 30 dollar sngs 9 max is getting same points as the guy playing 1.50 sng if let just say they got same amount of itm cashes and same amount of 1st and 2nd in a day?


3. What sngs are included here in sng leaderboard? Obviously 9 man counts. But heads up obviously not right? 6 max counts? I see there is also 8 man double ups. That count as well? So in those i know once half the field is eliminated, the sng is over. But in those you need to make sure you are 1st or 2nd in chips once the sng is over if you want extra points?


4. Can you see the current standings in the leaderboard similar to wpn with their sng and cash game leaderboards? Or its basically you have no idea and you just play. Do you guys prefer to see current leaderboard standings or not?


5. Heard lots of bots on betonline. Is this still the case for sngs?

after a day of grinding i can for sure say this is a micro stakes competition now. just LOL once again at betonline. all the regs are only playing $1 and $3 hypers because rake doesnt matter. ive raked 4x as much as the guy in first today and im in 14th place. real great promo idea guys

how do you view your sng leaderboard points? deposited and played a bunch today, but cannot for the life of me find any screen that shows me how many points i've earned.

In the poker client, click on My Missions on the bottom left. There you'll see a list of promos, simply find and click on SNG Leaderboard. You probably hadn't opted in yet, so you might not accrue points until you do.

I don't see "My Missions" on the bottom left?

It's kind of tough for me to answer for you, but I'll assume you don't.

In the client, in the bottom left corner, next to the trophy, click My Missions and then click Opt In for the contest(s) you want to participate in.

Hi Fishandchips,

Are you using Betonline, tiger gaming or another client?
If you log into your account via our web version (link below), there will be "my missions" in the bottom left and you can use this section to opt in.

Any word on scoring for 6-max? I assume the description above is for 9-max (4, 3, and 2 points 1st, 2nd, and 3rd).

Is 6-max 4 and 3 points for 1st and 2nd?

I appreciate the adding back of the sng leaderboards, I'll give you a pat on the back for that BetOnline. There is an issue here though.

There are players that raked more and actually won at the tables last week (and even finished outside the top 10) while the #1 player in the race lost at the tables.

I mention winning and losing because obviously the formula favors winning in terms of race points generated per game.

My point: Rake should be favored more than it currently is, not # of games played. Give the guys who don't want to grind $3 games like mad a chance and we'll get more volume in the higher stakes.

Also, bring back $100 6mans. I guarantee you they will run consistently right now.

If you look at the top players on the SNG leaderboard, they all have over 1,000 games played at heads up tables and were given points for them. I thought heads up wasnt counting towards points? its literally just the 4-6 guys playing eachother HU at $1 buy in.
the guy in first place, currently 12,000 points has raked right around $200 and I am currently in 8th place and have raked $550.
I know I come across as a hater a lot in this thread, and I do really appreciate the fact that you guys are trying to add great promos for all types of grinders, but something is way way off in this format that is basically forcing collusion at the micro stakes.

Did you contact support about the HU glitch? This forum seems to be a bit of a black hole as far as getting responses.

I did. 2 different live chat people told me that are not counting (they are)
