The names i mentioned were examples of how i think partypoker should move. There are few people broadcasting poker who arent sponsored and they have great potential. All they need is a little push

Moreover you should understand that everyone has his price and the contracts arent forever

Great point about twitch. I usually watch 1-3 days per week for tournament poker in Finnish poker channels, and they have lots of followers. Also most new players seems to come from Twitch, so it's mindblowing that Party is almost completely ignoring this. They do have their own Twitch channel but it has very modest offering and no advertising.

Especially tournament poker with some interesting giveaways seems to gather huge crowds of followers. MPN network also has had leaderboard for those people during their tournament serieses who stream their play on Twitch. Very small amount of money used (and most of that comes back as rake from players streaming) comparing of thousands of people watching.

I responded to this on the other thread - please refer to my response there

Thanks!



I read your PM and responded - my response was regarding pushing our site on gaming channels which I stand by - this will not happen due to the sheer amount of viewers who are under 18

We have x3 Twitch channels of our own for viewers who wish to watch party poker players and live events -

partypokerTV
PartypokerGermany
PartypokeRussia (both the RU and DE channel are very new!)

These are official channels and we advertise our promotions and offerings on these
We will use these channels to broadcast our Live events throughout the year and we have regular teams maintaining the channel alongside our pros and ambassadors



Yes there are many broadcasting poker- some do not wish a contract and prefer to stream and support their own channels

We have a team of partners streaming via their own channels in Canada, Russia and Europe who are partnered and push our games and promotions



We do not wish to support our channel with ads and advertisements - if this is the "advertising" you refer to above
We have our own marketing banners we use and for our viewers, we offer giveaways, freerolls etc
Our streamers all run our banners and as I state above we have partners who also showcase our offerings and regularly bring new players to the site
Similar to our youtube and other marketing channels

Our Big Game revival will provide fantastic content for Twitch - there is a thirst for high stake cash games and the upcoming events planned for 2018 will see the channel grow

In no way is Twitch being ignored- its a marathon, not a sprint Poker is a fairly new market on Twitch however I am confident it will continue to grow over the next few years espc if the Asian poker market grows - Twitch is huge in these territories and opens a whole new ball game in the coming years


Thanks

I lost a nice chunk of EV by sitting out on four tables (one of which was a final table) for ~20 mins because of a bug I assume. Tournaments didnt start after the hourly break.

At first I thought it's the same for everyone because, you know, these unintentional breaks in action happen fairly often on Party. Then I forgot about it (have a bunch of tables on other sites, which are working just fine), and only remembered 15 minutes later that I had a final table going on. Restarted the client and saw that the action had been going on the whole time. The most frustrating thing about this was the answer by Party support; basically just "though ****, check your connection".

Very well said sir!!

Just give a little bit of everything.
And don't start the changes again.
And make the sattelite tickets general use.
And for god sake update bwin software.It is so bad and a lot of us can't play to party.

No expiry on tickets!!

Do you plan to add nlo8 mtts to the schedule? On PS it gets bigger fields than plo8 and especially the nlo8 hyper pkos are quite popular.

Reported eardleym and liftededge for colluding together a week ago. They're still happily colluding and due a nice payday because of it. Great work party!

Will there be no $11-$22 satellites to the $215 Powerfest ME? $44 is a little too steep!

Is 'Feb 12th' when everything is now going to happen/be implemented or just one of the things you've mentioned as changing?

I don't see any 'new' schedules in the poker client thus far. Could you please clarify further as to what is happening and when?

Eg: When will the new Software update happen, when will the new schedule be in the poker client and when will that new schedule go live?

Ty

finally more plo8???

Had the exact same thing happen to me today, screen name bill kassouf

Pretty crazy that Party would refuse to sponsor someone on twitch, literally all of their competitors including America's Cardroom have sponsorship deals with streamers. It's to the point where I don't see Party on literally any of the large streams because they all can't show it due to sponsors. It's almost like you guys actually don't was recreational players to join your site, what with the lack of rake back for infrequent or micro players, poor micro tournament schedules, and an abysmal satellite system that only acts as a feeder system for your higher tournaments instead of all limits like 11 22 and 55.

I will follow this up with the risk team


We have plenty of player agreements on Twitch with Russian, Canadian and European players
Our channel runs almost daily and our focus will be our Live event coverage in 2018

Thanks Colette - accounts are being investigated and I was thanked for the information I provided but the risk team was not made fully aware of the leaderboard promotion that is running.

Please, make main events 2 days events. It will take too long, literally everyone playing ur mains will be playing the sunday milly 10kk, which is 2day. So noone will care about having to play day2 nextday.

I'm not asking you to put 2days events all over the place, but for that week makes so much sense.

Hey, in the new party blog where you announce the new software, schedule, leaderboard..
You saying the new schedule is from 5th March, so its not from Monday 5th February?

I think it was planned for Feb 5th which is just really clever - typically traffic dies off big after a series so Party is trying to counter this with a new promotion and software as soon as the series finishes.

Am hoping the leaderboard will be great but not too confident after seeing the latest cash leaderboard:

No.1 raked over $700 at .25/50 cent and under the first day!!

Official now with dates. KO series is going to run and just finalising the schedule with the bosses now, have had a very constructive couple of days with every single partypoker staff member (including the fabulous Colette!) going through the full vision, the full new software, full new schedule, all the series etc.

Company wanted to make sure the software released has everything fixed, we could have released on Feb 5th with the software I've been using/testing over the last 1-2 weeks but there were a few things like fonts being a bit too small that needed to ensure were made better before launch. I think its reasonable from their side.

March with the new schedule + BIGGER leaderboards + new software is very exciting time.

Nice one - any idea what format the leaderboards will be like? Would like to know soon as possible since one needs good liquidity for the higher stakes. Nice gesture to double the first month after a slight launch delay - not a whole lot of sites seem to be doing that sort of thing.

In the software update, will I be able select my bet size and hit "enter" or will that bug still remain?
