I feel like there needs to be a few more low stakes standard mtts during peak hours, nothing too big just small gtds between 1-2k buy ins from $3 to $12s. Now we just have mostly big fish mtts or pkos with not much in between. I like the idea of increasing the chip stacks as this is what seems popular now, but maybe just do this for the "major" or "blue" mtts.

You have removed a couple of the turbo deep mtts at 6pm and 9.45pm, they were good smaller field and shorter games to play. The $3.30 turbo deep at 8.30pm used to be a $5 buy in 1kgtd, now it is only $400.

The $1k 4x4 at 9pm is a good little game to play but there should be a few more in this buy in range and gtd earlier in the schedule.

Yeah sure what the site needs is even more small mtts for the armada of brazilian and eastern europe regs to take money off the few recreationals. Most tourneys barely hit the guarantee without hours of late reg. As of now 888 just has not a large enough player base to support more mtts which get grinded by every reg on this site.

how about making more turbo mtts? You change slow mtts into even slower and deeper and take out turbos. Meet the half way. Turbo deepstacks?

Yea there is only big field tournament on peak hours there should be at least 1 or 2 small field tournament with a 8-22 buy in tourney like 1k-2k guaranteed!

i want to comment on the structures, the tournaments that include the levels such as bb1400, 1800, 2400, 3200 etc are very good structures, but the tournaments without those levels sometimes turn into crapshoots depending on which tournament it is, especially the big fish and other bigger field tournaments, i would love to see all tournaments given the structures that include more levels as i mentioned, or at least give these structures to your "majors" such as the big fish and the bigger sunday mtts.

big fish go on forever as they are, not every daily has to be 10+ hours.

Have they stopped offering SWAP cash games ?

The Big Fish 16.5 starting now and the 33 in 30 mins.....which one finishes first? I was on the FT of the 33 on a Friday, it was ~ 6hrs into the tourney. I finished 9th but also stack distribution was so shallow. I can't imagine it lasting more than 1hr.

7hrs sounds OK, in any case 6hrs to FT is not bad. Is the 5K stack 15 min that started 3hrs ago the one that is longer? Anyways insane that more of the tourney was late reg than the time it took to reach the FT post late reg. That's like what we experience in regional Stars networks like the one I play on. Pokerstars IN. Our runners are ~100-200.

6hrs, probably 3-5 hands into the FT. -

Surprised to learn our deepest tourney with avg 73 runners (goes to about 103-110 nowadays) runs ~5hrs to FT but FT lasts 90+ mins atleast.

Starts with 250bb vs 200bb Big Fish. Main difference is first blind lvl is 100/200 20 ante vs 125/250 30 ante for Big Fish 33. Same Blind lengh 12 mins....

But FT stack is usually 300-350K for lower end @ 10-12K Blind vs here probably is 20M @ 1M. 3x more chips in play I guess but I just looked it up - it ended in 6.5hrs vs almost same 6.5hrs but 104 entrants in our tourney I was HU and remember a long ass FT.

Don't know if this has been discussed before but why is 888 not able to include the amount of Re Entries to the amount of Entries of a tournament so that the payout structure is correct and not only around 7% of the field gets paid?
I mean, wtf?

re-entries are raked rebuys , 12-13% of unique entries get paid , seems fine.

on stars its more like 25-30% lol

888 down?

Yeah I disconnected too (mid FT :<)

some players aren't disconnected and just scooping everything pre

Deepstack Monsoon was canceled again. Good Job.

did you remove all Frenzys except for the CET 23:30 one? why?

Is this site going anywhere? Having a ft in 5$PKO where 7 players are regs just looks like trouble for the site. I expect it in the regular freezeouts but not in the PKO's. Seems the only players running from Stars are regs.
I mean its understandable. Probably everything starting before the CET evening is lighting money on fire for recreationals on 888 right now.

Change the minimun entrants required for the PLO 5$ 6max at 19:45 CET from 10 to 6. It is so frustrating to see 7-9 people registered EVERY evening but the game never starts because the minimum required is so high, most of the other NLO/PLO have 6/7 minimum entrants required.

done

Add the following blind levels to mtt's that do not have them.

350/700
700/1400
1750/3500
3.5k/7k
7k/14k
12.5k/25k
17.5k/35k
35k/70k
70k/140k
125k/250k and so on

Structures are inconsistent, tournaments without these levels have too big level jumps and some turn into crapshoots.

This thread isn't as busy as the last time I was here, no replies in two weeks.

The recs must be skint, probably not being able to get in to the 10% payouts enough because re-entries aren't taken into account for the payout structure. Or maybe it's the 2 hour 40 minutes late reg for a $5 tournament. Maybe it's freezouts now turning to rebuys.

Maybe it's taking too much notice of a forum filled with regs.

Cut the reg time down, Stars has cut it to 1 hour 45. Add re-entries to payout numbers. Better still, remove the re-entries, then I and many other recs might return.

Yea good advice above. Not sure why 888 is so stubborn with these long late regs

888 also still needs a reason to open the client sunday, you really need a big gtd flagship, i think $88 buy in would work

888 need better options to deposit money, all good sites have Skrill,Neteller etc but 888 has nothing really good, thats insane in 2019
