Also like current table cap of 4.
I would love if there was some timebank added, even 12 seconds, when you're VPIP and get disconnected or at least if you're in a big pot. Once I got disconnected with Quads, reconnected shortly after the hand ended, lost the pot and didn't get the Jackpot.
Regarding the cost of running games do You mean the cost of running a game in bb/100 hands or in $/100 hands?
Thanks for your feedback. Re: timebank, this is something we’re planning to improve later in the year.

By cost of running games I’m mainly referring to the costs of getting money in and out. Unlike some costs e.g hosting which are the same regardless of stakes being played, the costs of handling large sums of money increase significantly.

I see we cannot register anymore for chinese yen currency tournaments. Is it a matter of time before you remove chinese yen currency cash games also? The long term plan is I assume to have only usd tables and no more use liquidity and players pool from asia?

Our goal is to transition to USD over time, yes. Obviously there's a successful player pool in CNY that we don't want to harm, so we're making this transition slowly and carefully. MTTs, Spins and some cash games are done already, others will take time.

Day 3 of our $7,000,000 guaranteed Spring Festival has kicked off already, with the daily $33 $6K PKO starting 30 minutes ago

We have some tournaments for lower stakes players, including:

$11 Daily Raise NLHE - 06:00 UTC-5, started with a $3,000 guarantee and increases by $250 each day!
$5.50 Mini Bounty Builder - 07:00 UTC-5 and is a daily $5,000 guarantee

$5.50 Mini Double - 15:30 UTC-5 starting with a $1,000 guarantee, which doubles each Sunday. In the last week this will be $4,000 guaranteed per day, and the final Sunday (26th May) it will be $8,000!
$11 $3,000 GTD - 17:00 UTC-5 and the tournament itself is NLHE but speed & table size change daily

IMO focus should be put on stability and reducing the cpu intensity of the client.

I upgraded my PC recently and expected that the client would run much smoother, it didnt make much of a difference.

Sometimes I misclick and change the stacks from money to BBs, something like this seems to create a lot of lag.

We're working on this. The cause is a framework which enables us to quickly develop software across multiple platforms. We're upgrading it in the next couple of months and this will result in performance and stability improvements.

There is another chance to make Day 2 of our $530 WPT500 event with a $400,000 guarantee running at 08:00 UTC-5 today! Satellites & feeders to it and most other events run throughout the day! You can start to qualify from $5.50 (or for free if you enter & win one of the 2 daily freerolls, awarding $5.50 tickets)

I'm loving the software, I think you could make the hand histories available and take a look at the attention sound, the sound besides of low only happens at the beginning of the action which makes those who are playing on multiple screens like me miss the action several times .

please take a look at this.

Your feedback is appreciated, thank you. We're experimenting with hand histories at the moment and I will share updates here when I have more news.

I was playing 2 sessions. After that I observed lobby for 3 weeks and saw 0 tables. And even when I tried to start new table there wasn’t any action so I just withdrew and left.

You are only allowed to play decent games if you are losing or being breakeven/barely winning player. I guess you just put so called ‘extremely skilled players’ in separate pool to play against each other.
Thanks for saving me time and headaches. o7

To be clear, what you are quoting in your post is not true. I'm not sure what is happening to the player in question, perhaps a technical issue or misunderstanding. I am happy to help as previously offered.

Day 6 has already kicked off and the next Spring Festival Mini Championship Day 1 flight starts in about 20 minutes. It is a $22 buy-in with a $150,000 guarantee. It is a PKO format, with bounties starting right away!

We have another chance to satellite into our $2,100 High Roller PKO ($250,000 GTD), which runs on Saturday 25th May @11:30 UTC-5. Today's satellite is a $220 buy-in with 4 seats guaranteed at 08:19 UTC-5. You can also get into this from $22, with feeders starting every few hours

IDK

last couple of weeks I can see the games are way worse than used to be... dont know if it was because you open new markets filled with regs or big stables arrived or bots but lots of competent new accounts...


another weird thing is that the best tables the software show me software dont allow me to sit if another reg beat me for the first seat... example yesterday I had 2 tables without fish with 7 players and I was allowed to play, but suddenly another one with 3 fishes and one reg popped up I was about to sit and another reg arrives and I wasnt allowed to sit... so IDK but the algorythm dont seems to work in the way you described

We do have an issue at the moment where the lobby can sometimes be out of sync with the table making it difficult to get a seat (because the seat is taken by the time the table opens). We’re working on this and it should be resolved soon.

Really enjoying this site and feel very hopeful and excited seeing all the promotions going on such as the PLO leaderboards that were recently added.

Small request that might have been suggested before but any plans to add a way to organize the tables / tile or cascade at some point?!

Over $800,000 guaranteed today including $400K in the $530 WPT500 Day 2. You still have 2 more flights to make Day 2, and there are multiple satellites running during the day to get into a $530 flight for a lot less!

2x $110 $100,000 guaranteed PKOs (one has just started)

Our Sunday Builder is a $220 with a $40,000 guarantee today and we have a longer structure $530 $75,000 SuperStack beginning at 13:30 UTC-5. This will play down to the money today (top 16) and Day 2 will start tomorrow (Monday) at 13:30 UTC-5, with $18,000 guaranteed for 1st!

Coming, no eta. However there are two 3rd party sites which are currently permitted (by us) to be used while playing on WPT Global to make this easier: intuitivetables & jurojin

No, VPNs are prohibited. Rampage and Brad don't use them to play on WPT Global.
