Okay. Thank you for your timely response. I have been rounding up a bunch of the sng regulars who are unhappy about the changes. I am considering starting an entire thread dedicated to talking about the new sng lobby and structure changes.

But first, can you please explain what you mean by "were made in favor of players and SNG liquidity."

This seems to be the only explanation you have provided for the changes, and I don't quite understand what you mean by this.

There can be no real explanation as to why Super Turbos go up to $1,000 max buy-ins and turbo and reg speeds only go up to $100 now. I was assuming it was just an error or oversight that would be quickly corrected but perhaps not? It is standard for sites (including 888 before update) to have reg speeds have higher max buy-ins then supers. Now they only have 1/10th the maximum buy-in of super turbos!? I am mostly a super turbo player right now but I know I would be more then annoyed if I were a turbo/reg speed player.

Been grinding super turbos on 888 since March and action had always been solid, since the changes it has completely dried up? struggling to understand how the changes could have such an extreme impact on the action? Any other Hu regs feel like the action has slowed dramatically? and have any idea why this may be?

1. they dont have pokerstars traffic
2.they have messed up with 1000 k of sng types
3. the sng type is a tottal messed up : you dont know exactly where to go to play your favorite game : is to much complicated
4.at 888 poker works only the incompetents yech ingineers and not only
5.when you wanna make a change you will do to only one type of sng to see the reactions : if is ok you can have those changes to all sng s if not , simple to dont
6. the new beta version : they allready put some ppl to test on my888 1 month ago to see the reaction and bugs . All ppl sayed that was to many bugs on the new version and is not ready .What 888pokr did? They launched the new beta with all those bugs. Competens vs incompetents
7. I have many to say but i will stop here , i am to tilted to add more things

Yes action does seem awfully slow since the update, seems strange that it has changed so dramatically since the update.

Also I don't understand how 888 have managed to mess up the automatic bet sizing buttons. 1/2 pot and 3/4 pot buttons are both incorrect, seems like an easy thing to fix and hopefully will get sorted soon.

Thanks for the feedback guys, I have sent it over.

Is it possible to have an account balance with rollover requirement moved from Lucky Ace to 888poker since the former doesn't offer any solution at all for Mac users unless you want to poison your machine with a Windoom partition? Would hate to lose 10% every once in a while because 888 is too stupid to roll out a Mac version for one of their white label skins.

today in a short session of play i was disconected several times : 10 times

i do wonder myself if they will refound all players who is suffering from those disconections?

is not normal in 2015 the second poker platform to have this kind of problems

Why you dont remove the new beta software and just offer us the old version ?

this software is not playable .

No worries, the 888 rep will be back here shortly to quote your post and say something along the lines of "your feedback has been forwarded" instead of "we are trying to figure out the poor connection today and will keep you posted."

The most frustrating is the way they handled it last time, back in Dec-Jan, without ever publicly apologizing, or compensating with bonuses and whatnot...

Hehe... How they managed to drown site with pretty big amount of fishes? 888 crew is so skilled. They will be probably closing in couple months, maybe year. At least poker room.

Please get rid off the antes that are added after the update. They are are visually annoying (in the middle of the table) and hardly make any changes to the game. Besides the super turbos are going fast enough as they are.

This one is less important and was already occurring before the update. If you are heads up the guy on the other side is not sitting in front of you but to the right or the left depending on his starting position. This is only for games above $20 not even sure if it is happening at $100 and $200 but it is for $30 and $50 and before the update it was for $42. Super turbo sng 6max that is.
