Why does this happen in satellites? When it reaches 9 people it splits into 2 tables for no apparent reason. Also, it takes one person at a time, and when there are only 2 people on the 2nd table, it gives the big blind the button for all the hands it deals heads up?!

HEY, GET THOSE SCOOPS REPLAYS UP AGAIN!!!!!!! I WAS JUST ABOUT TO FINISH WATCHING THE LAST MAIN EVENT 10K!!!!

Edit: Totally unacceptable - if you at least would have informed they would expire last of June (we are still a few hours from that btw) would have been a different deal.

Any possibility of this ever happening - Say a tourney needed 3 min entrants to start, but at the start only 2 players were registered and so it gets cancelled, instead can it pause when only 2 players are registered and wait for 3-4 mins more(extended) so if one more player registers it can start. Similarly for tourneys req min 5, it can pause when 3 or 4 players are registered, and if still doesn't get min req entrants, it can cancel. A lot of tourneys fail to run just because of 1 more entrant and when they do run, they smash their gtd everytime.

If tournaments can't even attract 3-4 runners to begin with before their scheduled start, I don't see a reason why they should run.

The tournament I'm talking about is a non holdem game, and that tourney has $150 gtd and when it runs it sometimes smashes its gtd 3x times. That tourney at 08:20 ET got 87 entrants including re-entries and had a prizepool of $435 , 2 hrs later same tourney same format only got 2 entrants at the start and so got cancelled. It gets cancelled very rarely, like 2-3 times a year on avg but always smashes its gtd 2x-3x times when it runs.

It has 1hr late reg and is a re-entry tourney, ppl like to late reg that one.

Hi there,

For a while now when I click on the Sports tab at the top of the Pokerstars Lobby, I see this screen in the main window.



Basically, I cannot access the Sports page.

Is the page not yet developed, or is it just on my PC?
Do I need to install something to make this work? (Chromium Framework or something?)
I wish Pokerstars had told us about this.

I'm not a fan AT ALL of these Mission tournament promotions you guys have going at set times. I have a problem with sleep where I wake up 1hr later everyday and i have missed a lot of these tournaments I qualify for. I hate tournaments as well and it prevents me from playing more cash games in the end so stars ends up losing more $ in rake from me personally. I NEVER play tournaments because they depress me and tie me down to my computer taking my liberty away which is the reason why I became a CASH PLAYER so please come up with another promotion idea for cash players instead of offering us only one avenue of getting some RB.

If it MUST be tournaments can't you guys just make 4 BIG tournaments in a year instead? I hate the fact that it's distributed into a bunch of small ones

why after all these years there's no option to have an exclusion list for people that I want to be able to search for me when I'm hidden?

Highlight Bet Amount doesn't seem to be working on Windows 10. I have to hover directly over the bet slider in order to use the mouse wheel.

I wouldn't advise anyone yet to upgrade to Windows10, Like any software they all need time to test for any bugs with a windows upgrade, Keith said previously Stars are in the process of testing PS7 with Windows10 and there will be minor bugs.

Two things I'd really like to see implemented from FTP onto Stars:

- Zoom "lobbies" in "pop-out" windows (same as any tournament is now), it would be so useful when playing in multiple zoom games to be able to see the playerlist for more than one zoom game at the time.

- Join table from waitlist improvement, make it display who is still at the table and maybe even the position u are offered like in FTP software. Tried googling for a printscreen of it, but couldn't find any and I don't have $ at FTP.

spin & goes for O8 would be realy good and attract some new players to a game that is not developed as much as holdem so it would therefor be good for pokerstars since fish wouldnt lose their money so quickly.

I imagine the popup for HU games falls under the same umbrella as the "this is a satelite" popup for satelites, in that Stars deem it too important to ignore so the "ignore popups" option is overridden every time even for players who play tens of thousands of the bloody things.

Ok so it appears there is nothing in settings that allows you to turn this message off.

That's absolutely irritating... my suggestion to improve the software would be to give people the option to tick 'don't show this again', like most other messages that come up! Make it happen Stars...

Still seeing the bug whereby sometimes on trying to log in on my desktop after using the mobile app I get told that I can't log on because I'm already logged on elsewhere. Reopening the app and logging out doesn't help; nor does playing via the app and logging out (but it seems wrong that I should be able to do so).

If you really can't fix this, please fix the time it takes Support to clear the offending session, instead. I don't really want to play on Party for the next few hours while I wait for Stars to sort this out.
