Reg speeds are like turbos and turbos are somewhere between a turbo and a super turbo

As a reg on there, I am pretty upset with this change, and so far the other regs I have spoken to are not happy as well. It seems like an attempt to decrease edges and generate more rake.

If anyone is interested in getting people together to write to 888, please PM me.
Can you have a look at the lobby now and let us know what you think?

The bet slider will be fixed.
Regarding SNG feedback, we are open to all feedback. We have added higher Turbo and regular speed and amended the blind structure to climb slower.

Thanks.
seriously?is before i was able to play over 100 games /day non turbo 6 max EASILY at this moment i am crying after 30 games played all day long .

When you try to write something do you also belive yourself that ****?

jesus christ

I believe that in your company , are some people who really works for pokerstars and not for 888 including you ! If in the past people who didnt want to play sng on pokerstars could do it easily on 888 poker , in this moment i am ***** forced to move and play on Pokerstars .Well done !

I am just going to comment on some SNG changes ( because I am playing only 6 max super turbos, so it will be only about them) :

1. The most ridiculous change was made by changing blind structure in super turbos and by adding antes. Why? :
a) If U care about recreational players like U say, so believe me, this structure will kill them even faster.
b) The big problem that 888 has that there is a lot of Bots ( especially from Russia, I had sent letters not once about them, but I don't think that anyone cares about it and bots just keep coming and coming). And I believe this blind structure just will help them to make plays simpler, just because we will have the stage of push/fold earlier and its much simpler for the soft.
c) Before the changes with blinds 40/20 and stack 500 we had M ratio 8.33 and currently after changes at the same stage 40/20 +5 antes (with 6 players) and stack 500 our M is 5.55, so our stack is 1.5 times smaller.
d) I remember Pokerstars did the same blind structure changes ( I think in 2011 after black Friday), in regular and turbo SNGs, than they changed they own blind structure to Fulltiltpoker blind structure ( I think because they wanted to get they customers), but they changed it back after a week, because they got so bad responses from they old customers and volume started to drop. So hopefully U will keep that old blind structure for all old and new customers and this will help to make Yours site unique and different from others.
e) If I was able to get easily about 150 STT tables with buyin 10+ and to pay about 150$ in rake in 6 hours, so currently I am just able to play about 100 tables and pay about 80$ in rake ( and I have to play even STTs for 5$). So currently I just see crucial drop in volume and there is no liquidity at all.

2. Actually I don't see so big difference between prize structure 70-30 and 65-35, but I would still prefer 70-30.

3. With changes in buyin's into SNGs I think I am fine, but I think U should add something between 50$ and 100$.

4. Please just remove that crazy alert sound.

That's it for know hopefully we will see some positive changes soon.

So, 888rep I don't think its right that 888 is not able to disclose the results of their investigations, I could care a less what happens to the people you investigate, but I deserve to know certain things so that I can patch any holes in my pc security if need be.

Also, I will not turn this into a riggie thread but I will just say

-- im as close to 100% convinced as possible.... about 888...
