Where is the setting that disables the pop up when you cash in a mtt?? A pop up use to come up when I'd cash or win something saying what place I finished in and in what position..but nothing comes up anymore, is there a place to turn it on or off? I'd like it back on
Thanks

To avoid the cash out fee, is it one month from last withdrawal request or process date or...??? And does it go by exactly 30 days or is it calendar month? Thanks!

It's just 1 per calendar month. For example, if you request a withdrawal Jan 29th and by some miracle it's processed by Feb 1st you can withdraw again without the processing fee. Basically as long as it's a new month a fee won't be charged

If I'm not mistaken theres a little check box on that popup that says "Do Not Show This Message Again" or something similiar. I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling your client possibly if you want to get that popup back.

This. I've done it before, they ended up combining the withdrawals on one check and I did not get charged. Withdrew on 29th of one month and 2nd of the next.

Completely at random. Support won't tell you a straight up answer. At least they didn't give me one.

They seem to be giving Elite status largely to losing and redepositing players. It's a good idea to give losing players a break, but I think that this is a horrible way to go about it.

Screw it. With the way poker is in the US I'm for anything that will keep fish in the games.

Doing it this way though creates too many hard feelings; and not just hard feeling amongst the grinders. When a losing or redepositing player doesn't lose enough or redeposit enough for Elite anymore and suddenly goes from 35% rakeback to 0% or 10% rakeback, that's going to make those players very unhappy with the site, especially when they inquire about how they can get back on Elite and are told it's a secret. It can create serious dissatisfaction which otherwise wouldn't exist. I think that it's just not the most effective way of keeping players on the site.

Well yeah, it is ridiculous obviously. I mean why would Aced not want to reward the grinders that produce the most rake? Capping it at 15% or whatever it is without some BS invite is mind blowing. I certainly didn't mean for that tier to be strictly for losing players. What's good for the goose right.

I'm looking for some MTT regs to help me pitch some changes to the powers that be @ Merge in regards to the MTT schedule. I'd like to see about getting more Turbos added to the current schedule, as well as some other possible tweaks.

My contact information is readily available, and I'd love to speak to you or your MTT grinding friend(s) who genuinely want to offer suggestions and help with this endeavor.


Thanks,

I have done some reloads as far as re depositing goes but I have withdrawn a fair share since pdc players were transferred to aced, winning players can get elite status

How about telling them to lower late reg times on all tournaments to 2 hours or less..it's just absurd currently and it's what is ruining the games.

If they have to lower guarantees to get this done, that's fine...this will surely have a better long term effect.

The higher stakes tournament is the same 20 regs with 5-10 randoms every time, and the regulars are in for 2-5 bullets every tournaments. No casual player is looking to play in a tournament like that. They clearly are doing something wrong when bovada is running a single entry $60 freezeout with 2 hour late registration that gets $8k+ to first on a weekday.

Also, tell them to bring Maximus back, and let pokerhost participate.

Also tell them to bring player 2 player transfers back...why did they get rid of this?

+1 to the p2p transfers I think that would increase Rec traffic to the site greatly. Tho it's very likely this will never happen(rain). I have a few ideas that I will pass along to you Kahn and big +1 to more turbos!

Bring back the rebuys, normal freezeouts and turbos, and kill the lame 4 hour late registration crap. Its almost like there trying to piss off players and have less players play on their site all this time by trying to get more rake with re entry tournaments and absurd late registration times. Basically, go back one whole year, I might start playing on their more.

4 hour late reg for an online MTT is just... absurd.

P2P transfers from what I can read are never coming back. However, everything else that suchsickaments said needs to be done. Bring back rebuys/cubes, etc. Eliminate reentry's and switch everything back over to freezeouts. Implement a Stars like "Big" and "Bigger" MTT philosophy for EVERY buy-in level. There's so much that CAN be done to bring back all the lost MTT grinders.

Most important, drop the late reg!! It's ridiculous and has killed the games.

Players are literally posting here that we are willing to accept lower guarantees for the time being for these changes to be made. We're prepared to wait for the players to come back and if Merge makes these simple changes, they will. In a big way.

I would think P2P xfers won't be coming back either, as it keeps the feds off their back I presume from obvious "money laundering" they seem to be so worried about.
