yeah curious about this as well. your site is going in the right direction, but you have to realize that with this new strategy you employ ( listening to 2p2 people, fixing your HS mtt schedule, etc ) you are mostly looking to get more grinders on your site.

so you should also start to fix this shady image your site has built for itself over the years and fix some of the wrong decisions you`ve made.

The 25k Saturday Challenge should be changed to 5k starting stack.

This 3 mtts should get the new structure of earlier antes.. currently all of them antes only start at 100/200 and i believe this keeps a lot of ppl from playing them

One thing that annoys me are the payouts in the tournaments that guarantee for 100 people. Eg 22 freezeout 2k guaranteed. Often when it gets about the guarantee, say up to 120 people, it goes straight to paying out 20 places and a min cash is only slightly more than the buy in.

I think/hope that this is some kind of computer glitch instead of a deliberate superflat payout structure, but who knows...?

same in the 162 to the whale right now, i think the main issue is the client isnt recognizing cash as the bubble. this is obviously a big issue when 20th place pays $450 while 1-19 get $500 seats, and we're not hand for hand with 21 left.

Ya, classical 10K hu. I said it like 4 times that the first place is heavily taking % of the 2nd and 3rd place. Maybe this is a tactic to get recreationals in that only look at 1st place, but this is a bit going overboard (since they hadn't had any super expensive mtts back in the day when they build that payout, earlier on they had no 50/100$ and therefore no 160/215$ mtts, that's why the 40$ turbo still is called "High Roller")

Is the $75 hyper rebuy actually raked re-entry? It seems very unclear

Usually re-entries on 888 are simple 1Rs, but some of their games are rebuy-raked without being reentry (mostly 99cent games being 90+9 as well as the 4.5+0.5$ step since the rebuy is Step Ticket worthy that way), I am pretty sure the 75 is not raked.

But you can't see it unless you reg the game which is still very uninformative/ deceptive.

Keep sending us your feedback. We will not always be able to be swift with implementation of changes as we have been recently, but I can guarantee that MTT improvement is a top priority of ours and your suggestions are being taken seriously, and very much appreciated.

None of their rebuys are raked, or re enteries. It may look like some rebuys are raked, but they are not. Sunday challenge for example says 1r for 82+8 but the entire 90 goes into the prizepool.

Just because the rebuy says .90+.9 does not mean it's raked, the entire rebuy goes into the prizepool. Just take a look at all the small buyin rebuys (4) and under, the entire rebuy goes into the prizepool.

I like that the payouts are steeper and more weighted to 1st on 888 compared to PS and FT, but I think it's a bit too much.

I say thank you for the tournament
But as you wrote the name of the tournament together with the password here in the thread, it will be full of easteuropeans who chase passwords for freebies
I expect over 1000 entrants
So its not worth to play in it
Sad

works fine in game
but there are a few mac exclusive 888 issues which add to existing 888 tilt
(no "its your turn to act" sound/pop up sporadic")

out of game hands seem to come in with occasionally out of sync timestamps with another player as "hero"
