So I checked the option in "lobby settings" and also have the heads up checkbox checked in "advanced filter" along with show empty tables but no heads up tables are to be seen. What am I missing?

What stakes have you filtered? There are no games available below $50NL and I'm not sure how high they go, but they are probably capped somewhere, too.

As a test, see if you can see all the HU, 6Max, AND NLHE Full Ring games from $50NL to $200NL, then uncheck Full Ring and uncheck 6max.

Odd but they showed up after a few client restarts. Thanks for the help!

Hello,
How safe/unsafe (regarding withdrawals for European players and other players) is Carbon today?
Last time I played there (about a year ago) it seemed ok.

something is wrong with the HUSNGs. the blinds start at 5-10 (150bb) for all speed types (reg speed, turbo, and hyper)

Yeah, I just came here to post about the husngs having the reg speed structure.

"Oh, they changed the hyper structure. Oh, I signed up for the wrong husng. Oh, nope, something is just wrong."

It's an error, it's being fixed as I type this!

My advice would be to wait until the HUSNGs are fixed, then contact support, provide tournament IDs, and ask for some compensation (MTT ticket perhaps).

Anyone know why Sportsbook eliminated all of their SitNGos?

OMFG they practically gutted the VIP system.
No more cash exchanges. Points can only be used towards MTT's and only $11 or higher.
This means the benefit of the 35% and 15% rakeback (on cash exchange) levels are gone.
No more different VIP levels.

Is there a plus to this? Were any other promotions boosted while this one was whiped out?
I see they are giving double points to anyone who plays limit hold em this month. Then there is the tourney series, the regular happy hour, two a days, a small Bad Beat Jackpot, and heads up and sng leaderboards.

Maybe the OPS series is going to have some good overlay.

Any chance the rake was reduced as a trade-off?

Yeah I really cant believe they completely got rid of the points for.cash feature. I am stuck now with 330k points on there. Would anyone with knowledge on the subject speak on which tourneys are the best options to enter? I have always played strictly cash and feel like this is a pretty low blow to do this without warning after having put so much volume in on the site.

So, they got rid of points for cash? If so, I guess that means we can all stop worrying about being removed from the VIP program or getting a 35% invite.

Well, three weeks of high traffic and 35% was fun, but I guess it's back to hating merge. Wonder what moronic decision comes next.

It would take forever for a casual player playing the micros to accumulate enough points to play an $11 MTT. This change is going to alienate the very players that they were supposedly catering to.

Sigh, also nixed on the points for cash. There is no rhyme or reason for entering MTTs/ SNGs with points either. Most SNGs don't have it, but it looks like regular 9 mans do? Some MTTs don't have it, some do, but most (if not all) the high buy in stuff does.

Fortunately I just cashed in 40K points recently, only got stuck with 90K!

I still can't figure out why they can't give us a little notice on this, besides the obvious money grab aspect of it. It's bad enough when they make huge changes, but you can't tell us? I don't get why they take the route that is most likely to piss people off with everything they do.

Pretty much Merge's MO @ this point. If they had HALFWAY decent management, they would dominate the US Market...

The only sitngos that I can find that still use points are the $2.20 regulars. I think that they mistakenly didn't remove them. My guess is that that option will be gone soon enough.

The $33 and $60's were points when I checked last night, now they aren't. Oh, Merge, you guys are so cute.

holy **** LMAO, so what can we do with points? The new promotion is LHE 2x ponits for this month, they still run happy hour granting 1.5 points, well what the hell for??

this is sad, i am about to go anti merge and promote to not play there.

Well, P2, you can play $2.20 regular speed 9 man SNGs or MTTs above $11 (though not all of them?)

Why make universal changes when you can make random changes that don't make much sense for no apparent reason?
