Stars IoM-meeting discussion thread - October 2014 - Page 6 - Small Stakes Pot Limit Omaha

Well guys u´ve to remember that you wanna attract fish as well, you don't get a mayor event running with pros only. So if you make it rebuy less fishes will play it then if its an freeze out. so i don't like the idea of making it an rebuy.

Fish will not play high Buy-In events where he satellites to when he´s not able to rebuy, so either make the satellites for entry + 2 Rebuys or don't make it an rebuy at all or max an cubed.

I think people like big guarantees that rebuys creates.. And that rec's are willing to fire one bullet to win a huge first.

imo low stake rebuys are fine but once you get to a buy in that requires sats then freezeouts are better.

Stars should have a decent idea on the liquidity by now, we'll see how open they are.

While recreational tend to prefer FOs, rebuys are so much better as a format for PLO.

starting time of the monday tourney is just awful for european grinders ( 11pm), would be nice if stars would adjust that somehow , at least 3h earlier (the earlier the better obv) so both americans and euroeans could participate without staying up all night.

Can suggest an earlier start time for the 530 if there aren't many objections

Here's the agenda I've compiled, mostly through this thread

-Zoom ecology

-PLO Sunday major (215+r)
* also high stakes PLO tourney (1k+)

-Limiting seating scripts (gavz)

-Increasing minimum buy-in to 50bb at regular tables

-High stakes PLO ante tables back to normal (poll)

-Cap on MSPLO lobby (poll, Alexo)

-updates on buttoning and zoom-stack preservation

-Random stuff:

*add table button for HU
*increase moderator rights to booting those sitting out (skjervoy)
*6-card PLO?
*Canada?

Still open to suggestions, new stuff can be brought up as late as Friday

tappi - refuse to sign NDA, or make signature that is clearly fake on NDA documents, that way you can plead ignorance in a court case for ignoring NDA, and can give us players the inside scoop

I guess I'm adding these nosebleed HU PLO SNGs to the list, along with the 530 start time. Would imagine both suggestions are reasonable from Stars' perspective.

Yeah the start time for the monday tourny is terrible as is - also the main reason for the low turnout imo. When they choose timeslots for plo tournaments for the tournament series (wcoop,scoop etc) they normally do it around 11 EST (same time as the 215 on saturday). So im guessing they have already done the research that the optimal time for the highest turnout is around that time. My suggestion: 11 EST.

Answer for CB on 6c PLO: no plans to add on Stars

PLO HU SNGs added for 1k, 2k, and 5k buy-ins, both turbo and regular for 1k, turbo only for 2k and 5k.

Figured I'd just get these out of the way before the actual report

Thanks for the sngs, but why only turbo for 2k and 5k?

My understanding was that they wanna see how the regular 1k does first, regular 2k and 5k can be added later.

You go ahead and open-sit some of them, sir!

as i said before option to straddle and round of straddles box for cash games fish love that ****. And its good for regs with fish in game too in general. Obv stacksizes and other situations where its bad but if there is one fish punting it off quicker or an option where everyone can do it for one round etc has to be good. Helps to provide the gambling mentality and keeps fish happy. Can anyone think of a reason why this would be really bad for games cos i cant?

Stars prob wont like it cos will make recs lose faster but cant see how it negatively impacts us as players

It lowers the SPR pre so edges will be lower... they may still lose faster though, particularly with just a couple buy-ins. I'm ok with pitching the idea, but prob won't cause I have no idea how popular it is here.
