Well didn't take long but the blitz bots are back and grinding hard. Total joke. Most probably Nagy's personal bots. Only reason why they wouldn't be banned yet.

Is there an acr representative who is present who can pursue matters that email support has turned a deaf ear towards? $3900 missing from account.

Thank You

Yes you can switch but only once. You email support and ask them.

Enjoy!

At no time did WPN go site wide with 7 day rat hole. At no time did WPN go site wide with Blitz. At no time did WPN go site wide with, ah you get the picture, they only went site wide with a rake grab more rake trigger game. Well maybe you don't get the picture. Your original post was an embarrassment.

Bro you messed up several ways in your original post, that rant about nits made you look unhinged. And even in this post you are blind sided by your tiny little views. I'm still laughing that you just typed, "they are trying to promote a new game AND TRYING TO FIX THE HORRID CASH SITUATION." I call BULLCRAP. WPN was not trying to fix the cash game situation no one asked them to fix. WPN simply created a new rake grab game. Jesus Christ. Have you been reading this thread???? Players in this thread want their rewards on time. Is WPN software fixing that? Players in this thread don't want their money to go missing when they transfer from poker to casino. Is WPN fixing that? Player don't want to see a message that says, "the following hand is a misdeal." Is WPN fixing the software to have no misdeals? Players want the bots gone. Bro you are a fool if you think in the face of all the player complaints in this thread WPN decided to do the players a favor and "fix the horrid cash game situation" as you put it.

I'm still shaking my head at you. And you need to get your head out your ass.
Maybe if you spent less time writing walls of texts making assumptions about people most likely many levels above you in both poker and life, you’d be able to find a way to increase your WR enough to offset the rake. But hey, I guess the status quo of playing with a bunch 20/19/10’s Russians is better?

Best of luck though, you’re clearly too thick to interact with.

You think you can offset the games 300bb/100 rake with a 100% range and 3.5SPR? Those hands are quite literally unbeatable. You can probably run a dreammachine and still lose >10bb/100

Considering I’ve been doing it for a month playing 1/2-5/10 bomb tables yeah, 100% confident I can. Happy to report back a month from now if I’m wrong now that I can actually track them with PT4.

People quite literally have no clue how to play these hands, if you’re any good at poker it’s not that hard to figure out a strat for these pots lol.

Acr makes you wait for big blind whenever you sit out, even if you have not missed any blinds? (Or for example, bust and reload)

The assumptions started with your first post which I quoted above in which you assumed everyone was a nit for speaking up about site wide forced higher rake.

And you looked like an ignorant fool not knowing a damn thing about rake and instead you've been in here praising a rake trap. I pointed out the rake trap and ment52 just got you on record that you are clueless to rake. You are so clueless I had to write a lot of words. Right in front of your eyes WPN tinkered with the size of bomb pot bb's several times to trigger an extremely favorable rake trap. I'm glad you've shown the thread you know nothing about rake and have called a situation where all the players site wide are forced to pay more rake a "promotion." You clearly are too stupid to know how stupid you are.

Right after rigtards on the ignoramus list are the "more rake is good" fools.

Check financial tab on client. Sometimes it is a little off, but typically Monday it hits. Believe around 3-6 PM east coast time? Not sure, I'll ask

Does anyone else think turning 70% of the MTT schedule into on demands will hurt player retention? Is the site possibly looking at getting rid of MTT's?

Wow. They have changed the weekly SNC and Beast tickets to $90+5 pretty much forcing the players to play in Venom satellites. The only two $90+5 options I see are the new Sunday 6 pm est. 20 seats guaranteed, which is the auto entry for SNC and Beast or the Venom step 7/9 option.

Hopefully this is only temporary leading up to the Venom.

@Winning_TD, if you're going to do this, then at least add more $90+5 satellite options throughout the week. Not all players can play on Sunday night at 6 pm. And I'm guessing step 7 doesn't go off very often. I guess it should run more now.

It's kind of bs considering the ticket isn't a promo from the site, but is instead generated through rake collected from the SNC and Beast.

Oh this is the new, unannounced, tho clearly viewable in the lobby: Min players to start games.

Almost all regularly scheduled games are now On Demand only. With a massive number of players required to register before they begin, tournament will now be cancelled more than ever

Are you a grinder looking for MTT's to play? Get ready to only play when we let you at ACR. Do you see our MTT schedule? Doesn't it look like a bunch of games you don't want to f****** play? Have no fear, you wont play them at ACR.

(please see our non-gtd on demand offerings for maximum rake pay)

I wouldn't say "all regularly scheduled games are now On Demand," but they did make changes on a large number of events. From what I can tell, this affects all freezeouts and the big guarantee/"special" events. Basically everything with 4 or more hours of late reg, and the $11 $20k special.

If I could take a guess, this will change back in the next week or two after they've realized this model won't work. It is a drastic move, and you can't expect to have most players registered prior to start time when you're dealing with 4 or 5 hours of late reg.

What I can never wrap my head around is once you start getting comfortable with a set schedule after playing it for a few weeks/months, they make a drastic schedule change or adjustment to structures.

^they made a poor long term play trying to capture the short term pandemic upswing and way overshot the guarantees for when normal life resumed. And not to say we are normal, but a lot of people are back at work, kids are in daycare, families are taking vacation (even if it’s just driving to the beach), other entertainment activities are reopening, casinos are reopening, etc.

It’s tough to walk it back when you do that, but they don’t really have a choice. They’re doing everything they can to not overlay the games that do go off. Technically, the summer is the down time too, under normal circumstances. I’m interested to see where it goes.

I’d rather them keep slicing guarantees than create a situation where the tournament doesn’t run at all.

Interestingly, one account that I'm 90% sure is a bot kept playing.
Any half decent bot does not rely on optical character recognition and was not affected by the updates.

100%. I usually register anywhere between 3-5 hours in (work schedule on the west coast) so I'm not even sure how many players start a $40K at level 1, but I am guessing it is not 267... Also, where does the specific # come from?

I guess I'll be playing mostly ODs today anyways, since none of the tournaments are going to go off.

LOLWPN.

Looks like the minimum player requirements were decided by 10% of the guarantee. 267 is $4,005. The $16.50 $7.5k was just cancelled. Min player requirement of 50, which would be $750. The last I looked it was at 46 about 5 mins before it was set to go off, so I guess we just missed it. Darn!!
