Someone got a sick beat put on them lol

If I could write algorithms I can promise you I wouldnt be doing this job. I wish I was intelligent enough to be able to do that.

Also I dont deal with tickets personally. However please give me your account number or anything to check what happened. Since being here I doing even know how to give or retract tickets.

More of those 50K starting stack tournaments please

Why do we still have tournaments with 5bb late reg?

Talking about the $11 2500 GTD right now? Hey, those late joiners are free chips.

.

That and a few others, on the 5.5 monster 3K people were registering 5bb at last break, blinds go up and they start playing <4bb... it's great for big stacks but not for the ecosystem.

Although it feels that way, it's not what math says: the longer the late reg period, the better it is for the late entrants.

For the love of Merlin, please bring back the $55 PKO 15k gdt tournament and make it a regular daily one - most glorious tournament in the last couple weeks, never seen so many funplayers - you can even lower the gdt to 10 if you are worried about that, should reach the quota easily daily.

Is there no 730 pm est big nightly $55 tourney tonight? by far my favorite tournament

It's back since a couple minutes, thanks!

glad to see its back. i think lots of ppl log in just to play that tournament

Which one are you all specifically talking about?

before the holidays there was a 730pm est $55 nightly tournament with a good guarantee. When holidays started it changed to a $55 hohoho pko with a 30k guarantee. Though it looks like the new tournament schedule they put out for january might have gotten rid of that tournament which would be a huge bummer

Hi Guys

No that tournament is in the new schedule. Over the Xmas period and new years we have to adjust for the massive drop in players. Its very common and I do it every year.

The new schedule I will publish soon. We are just working on building all the tournaments now!

.

If there's any chance you can post the new schedule on here when you're done, that would be appreciated.

please remember low stakes european player (possibly morning and afternoon time gmt +1 )

thanks a lot and good work !!!

Great to hear. would love a link to new schedule when it is done

The new 7.5k MTT at 1 PM CST, has a has a fast icon on the main lobby indicticating it has 8 minute levels but when looking at the tournament info after opening the mtt lobby it shows it actually has 10 minute levels. Thought y'all should know about the discrepancy.

First impression on the new schedule: the fear is real; no changes since last suggestion (up).

it's 5pm GMT, a micros grinder has to wait close to 5 hours to get 6-8 tables going (considering there are no busts in the meantime), even if adding the 22's. No point in advertising a new tournament every 15m, although it may not be a lie, it's far from the truth for most players in the pool.





Will be waiting to see if there are still <5bb late reg tournaments to comment on that.

I will be very sad if both major concerns were not addressed.

I wish I will proven wrong in the near future and will apologize accordingly.

Just some feedback on the new schedule:

It looks like all of the R/A tournaments have been changed to 110-120 minutes of late registration. This is just too long for a traditional rebuy tournament -- especially when you're charging rake on every rebuy and add-on (which I've never seen a site do). From my experience, online rebuy tournaments never have more than 90 minutes of late registration.

Also, the PKO tournaments have 120-144 minutes of late registration. I think this is a little excessive, as most competent players are going to be buying in as close as possible to the tournament start time, and not re-entering with <30 to 40bb. As it stands right now with late registration running this long, players can re-enter or buy-in with 10bb. This is just burning money IMO. Like rebuys, I would cut late registration periods for PKOs down to 90 minutes max. If you really want to keep two hours of late registration (to increase prizepools), I recommend slowing the structures down drastically.

Everything else looks good to me. I will say I do see RManPT's point about the lack of options for lower stakes MTT players, but I just spread my volume over WPN/Bovada to get around this issue. I should also mention that I really like the structures for the Titan Turbo tournaments.

I added 10 mins yes to late reg of the rebuys. We do not charge rake on rebuys it all goes to the prizepool but you are not the first to say that to me and I guess its not clear enough in the lobby but I repeat we DO NOT charge fees on rebuys or the addon. The 22 goes to the prizepool for each rebuy in the new 10k r/a.

Your comment regarding PKO's is fair but you should also look at the fact that I am not charging fees for the KO side of things. We actually charge the smallest fees in the industry as far as im aware.

We do alot of good things but unfortunately nobody actually knows about it. I always appreciate your honesty and clarity and I will or should always have a good response as to why.

I just know the details of the tournaments during the hours I play. I know the weekday $5.50 $2500 GTD R/A and the $3.30 $500 GTD R/A had 90 minutes of late reg, then the $11 $4,000 GTD R/A on Sundays had 80 minutes of late reg. The way the schedule stands now - the $5.50 and $3.30 R/A tournaments have 120 minutes of late reg, and the $22 R/A has 110 minutes of late reg. This is not a deal breaker for me by any means. I just know 110-120 is longer than the "norm." I know the $5.50 and $3.30 R/A tournaments never had overlays with the shorter late reg, so I guess I just don't see why time would need to be added to the late reg. With the new $22 $10K R/A, I understand the longer late reg because I can see that tournament overlaying on a semi-regular basis.

In regards to the rake on rebuys and add-ons, you are correct about this and I apologize for commenting on it. It is the tournament lobby that creates the confusion.

Again, the late reg "issue" with PKOs that I brought up isn't a deal breaker for me. I'm merely just trying to make suggestions because I do like playing on this network, and the longer that WPN doesn't deal with their bot issue, I see more and more players moving over to BOL. So, I would like to see your site be as successful as possible. But the issue with such a long late reg on PKOs deals primarily with recreational players. Simply put, they're just going to lose money quicker than they normally would, and this just isn't good for the poker economy. I'd say at least 60-70% of the field that plays PKOs doesn't understand the least bit about PKO math, and they're going to keep re-entering up until the last minute -- not realizing that they're just lighting money on fire. I just think, economically speaking, it would be better for the PKOs to have a shorter late registration period, or keeping the late registration as is but slowing the structure down.


I just want to reiterate that I'm not trying to complain. You, Dan, have been very helpful in my experience, and I'm just trying to give constructive criticism.

I got tired of playing for 8-10h just to get my deep runs canceled, WPN is not an option for me. I have another options but I would love to spend all my money just on BOL, for that to happen we need more volume (as a last resort why not throwing a few freezouts with no guarantee in the mix to fill the schedule on multiple stakes and check on the demand later on? can't have easiest fix) and those tournaments with 2h30+ late reg (<5bb) must be addressed.
