It's UTG.

There's an occasional bug where the specific tourney lobby doesn't update. You can fix it by closing and re-opening the lobby. This is what happened here. I've asked that you be added to next week's tourney.

I wonder if this has happened to anyone else. One of the cash omaha 10 suddenly closed. I re opened it and some time later the same happened again. I am playing 4 tables and tired so more than likely its me clicking something accidentally but just checking.
It'll close when it's been 2 handed for a while, maybe that is what happened? It should give you a message if it does though...

It looks like some players are gone, but they're actually playing, and I can't see my cards but blinds will be posted for me. The worst is if this happens when I'm in the hand..
Please look into it.
I'm playing browser edition on Win XP computer
Thanks - could you post your alias or PM me your username please? If possible, could you post a screenshot too please?

not sure about nl600. it might be just right for me personally, but perhaps it would make a significant amount of strong regulars join.
Yeh, I am leaning towards your position. I think that if we add NL600 it'd be the biggest game we'd have, at least for quite some time.

Yeh, there'll be cash. Not sure on what stakes, I'll investigate. It's held at Casino Barrière Le Croisette - see

They're calculated based on what the average of the playerbase does. It's likely that most good regs are going to be a bit tighter than the average. But not 100% vs. 25%.

Yeh, I think we'll do this for Q4. We can't change them mid-quarter though.
I didn't build
Challenges with casual players in mind. The aim of the site isn't 100% about casual players - the aim is to bring about a level playing field, keep our new players alive for longer, make the game fun, but to keep our regulars relatively happy too. Challenges is about the last of those.
I wasn't really expecting casual players to enjoy them too, which is why we started on 10k hands per major step. I reduced it to ~8400 this quarter, but I think I'll go down to 3k or 4k next quarter. I suspect that a lot of people who don't play a ton don't realise how long 10k hands can take.
There's also a problem of selection bias - people who find them too long will post here, people who don't, won't.
