well done 888 on changes made good to see a site goving the customers what they want slowly becoming the best site to play tournament poker on, when can we expect XL series to run again?
i think running it along side scoop would see a incred surge in traffic on the site

a daily 22-33c with a 10k guara inbetween croc and monsoon would be a lovely addition for reg and rec alike imo

If you had made the same suggestion in stars mtt discussion thread, no matter how good your idea is, they would have taken ages to implement this.

was shocked to see that response so quickly, wp 888.

really happy that u guys step up, interact with grinders on skype etc. and actually listen.

good to have a bit of competition back now that stars is ****ing some things up badly!

there's already structures changed, a cpl mtts added that got suggested here, now the "new" label etc. - amazing.

where's the xl series?

oh pleaaase more freezeout sats, I plan on taking the croc out of my sched on most days but would play a 20-50$ FO sat with a cpl seats grtd every session.

Anyway I'm looking forward to play nl holdem tourneys at 888poker, but before that I hope you give us the option to change sounds of chips in the table like when somebody goes all in, when cards are dealt, it reminds me of my old tilty days

Yep running a few more series, but series that have unique tournaments (not just same daily tournaments with bigger gtds) would be a great addition to 888

888 thanks for listening to me, the $11 rebuy was a success and the swamp nearly doubled it guarantee thanks to the extended late registration when some Sundays it would get overlay

I have a few more suggestions:

1. Make the starting stack 5000 chips as a standard for all your deepstack tournaments. the $4 deepstack at 15:30 BST and $22 deepstack at 15:00 both have 3000 chips and dont quite play as a deepstack. The $35 deepstacks also need both the 120 minute late reg and 12.5% antes which you may have missed.

2. Some freezeout tournaments also have a 2000 or 2500 chip starting stack, which should be changed to the minimum 3000, examples of this are the $6 $1000 at 19:15 BST.

3. The $25 $1000 6max at 20:30 also could do with an extra 15-20 minutes of late registration which will also help to boost the prizepool (I believe it used to be $1500 but is slowly decreasing).

4. If you could also change the $11 rebuy structure at 19:40 BST to the same as the new earlier one you just added that would make it play a lot better and help to increase the prizepool.

5. In terms of new tournaments you don't have many 2r1a or 1r1a tournaments, +1 to a $22 1r1a inbetween the crocodile and monsoon. There also arent many turbo rebuys at the midstakes level at peak time, an $8-$20 turbo rebuy would fit nicely at 22:00 BST. The schedule also lacks a decently sized 6 max rebuy which is something to consider.

6. On Sunday a $215 Mega 6-max would be good with a $40k gtd similar to the one that runs in the Super XL series and ofcourse +1 to running that series more than once a year.

7. I think that another $55 knockout can be added in the schedule, as they only run at 14:20 and 23:20, so somewhere in between there. Possibly branded along with the other daily high rollers "The Tsunami Knockout" or something along the lines of that haha with a nice 5-10k guarantee.

8. Again its been said before but improving your satellites. Some better freezeout or 2nd chance satellites to everything big with guaranteed seats rather than the super turbo deep satellites. By the way at peak time there are like 3 5.50 rebuys running to Sunday Turbo Mega Deep and only 1 to the non-turbo version, could you fix this please too.

Thanks 888 you're doing great and im glad you're actually listening to us <3

An option to filter games by speeds. I can tick/untick "Turbo" but that let's me show reg+turbo or only reg speed, but not only turbo. <- and that's only for the "my favourites" tab - the normal lobby has only the following filters:

Show: Running / Completed / Satellites
Game: HoldEm / Omaha / Stud
Limit: NL / FL


So please insert:
Speed: Normal / Turbo / Super Turbo
maybe Freezeout / Rebuy
and Full Ring / Shorthanded (4M/6M/HU)

Also since you have games 4m, 5m, 6m and so on levels, how about putting a "turbo" into every mtt name unless it has less than 10m blinds? I am missing games because I don't study every lobby and think it's regspeed, while it might be 6m levels.

Are there any plans for lowstakes? you have excellent mid/high stake schedule but for me with $25 abi there's very little, just a couple of $22-$24 FOs with low gtds (maybe improving those would help, or at least make a major from one of them). The challenges are great but late for euros so I rarely get to play those. 20:00 CET $4.40+R Turbo 10k gtd is nice but not enough for me to fire a session. My best option on slightly more expensive side is playing The Monsoon and that's pretty much it.

Would absolutely smash a 15k gtd daily and you could prob put the sunday gtd up after as people will know its daily rather than a sunday special
This need a good $11 to run,stars has the big $11 and $11 $12k guarentee at 20.30 uk time,I'm sure if u changed the $11 at 20.00 uk to deeper stack with a name and good guarentee it would do a lot better then it is currently.

1. Hotkeys
2. Timebank
3. Synced Breaks
4. Deal Option
5. Divide some money of 1st place to places 2-4
6. Option to filter Speed and BI in the lobby, not only the favourites
7. Better Viewability when it's your turn to act.

A huge thing (for me) would be if you could clean the lobby up with a decent set of filters, keep up the good work.

Really great that you're improving things and taking ideas from the thread but the top 3 software changes on this list far outweigh any tournament tinkering imo. 888 still so hard to mix tables in.

Nice 11r in the afternoon before the Breeze. Brilliant spot for a rebuy of that buy in just as people start their sessions so they can late reg. Will be playing it today!
