Prizepool just broke 80k before late reg ended. I'm thinking the Main Event prizepool is surely gonna crush its GTD by a significant amount as well.

Thanks, man. You should at least play in the Main Event next month, even if outside of your roll.

I'm 99% sure I can clear $1 of casino bonus for every $18 bet on roulette. Is it worth it? Is there a better way?

Plenty of sats in the lobby and I'm sure coming up closer there will be some with a big # of seats.

I guess if you are going to play an Online Poker Tournament for the first time in 10 years, and it's event one of the first annual MICOOP, It would make sense to FT it and stumble into a 3rd place finish... haha.

For all you microgrinders out there. Double your money promo on the Sportbooks side of the Stars client. Detroit Pistons to score one point. Max bet $10 / Payout $20.

VERY nice, cball86!! Who needs deposit limit increases when you can just FT tourney's??

How long did you play for in that tournament?

Thank you for this.

I wonder if this is "per player"? The top prize for a black chest is $700 with a frequency of 10 in 1,000. Does that mean for every 1k black chests "I" open there will be (10) $700 rewards? Or does it mean "collectively" throughout the player pool? Because if its throughout the player pool I could hypothetically never see one. It's probably "per player", and I hope it is!

Thanks! Super weird, in a lower limit game this option wasn't available. Moved up stakes and there is it.

Any word on when we get zoom tables? I see them when I log into the global client, but not when I go to the Pokerstars MI client.

Why do you want zoom tables? Doesn't having no reads lower the edge of skilled players?

I assume maybe if/when the pool is big enough to support them. Stars.PA doesn't have them after a year so I wouldn't hold your breath.

HUDs work on Zoom tables.

Also - thought HUDS worked on Zoom tables.

I'm microstakes grinding on my $20 deposit Up to $270 on sportbook promo's, casino bonus's, and 2nl / 5nl 6max tables. Games are super soft winning at 20bb/100 right now and trying to move up stakes fast with proper bankroll management while I review poker training videos on off peak times.

I just want more hands per hour right now until I get rolled for 25nl. I've invested a lot of money elsewhere over the past year....and the wife isn't super keen on my depositing more money into Stars.

Ah - no stress. I get that I suppose. Pretty sure there aren't THAT many unique microstakes players playing on the MI site yet.

I'm in PA. As mentioned above player pool is too small for zoom and would risk killing the reg tables and drying up cash games completely since recs lose much faster. If multiple state pools merge I believe it won't be if but when.

Hey all, just a heads up for people on a glitch that happened to me today. I went to do a deposit on the mobile app today and clicked the $100 option. My card was already saved in there so it wants the 3 numbers on the back to do the deposit. I type in the 3 numbers and click the confirm button and it makes the deposit. Heres the glitch.... instead of depositing the $100 it deposited the 3 numbers on the back of my card as the amount. Let's just say I didnt really want to deposit $800+ on there. I know you can just withdraw what you didnt mean to deposit but it will cancel out your 600 deposit bonus or any bonus your on. Just a head up for people depositing with cards you may not want to save them in their system so this doesnt happen to you.

Those are the same thing. It’s like flipping a coin while 4,000 other people also flip a coin. Your individual chance of heads is 50%, and you’d expect to see the other 4,000 people get 50% heads. I mean, not exactly, because variance, but the principle is the same. A 1% chance for everyone is a 1% chance for you.

Wow. Is this real? Are you 100% certain you didn’t goof up? If this is real, it drives home my point about being concerned with software that reeks of lowest-bidder implementation.

I do not casino but hell i have max played all the sport promo's and outside the one you mentioned today (thank you) i always make a dime and never a free play not sure i am doing it right or they believe giving someone a dime literally is a promo. Get 10.10 every time returned never earned a freeplay and not really need it but if i earned it i want it.

Think you are doing something wrong. I've not just returned a dime yet. All the promos's I've entered, have been paid out as advertised.

10 in a 1000 is 10 in a 1000. It's not guaranteed no matter what. You could still go on an unlucky streak and not hit any in 1000....you are prolly just drunk though
