-1 structures are fine thanks.

Plenty of super fast reg speeds and hypers on other sites if you want to play them

I wouldn't mind the two being condensed into a 55$ Or 109$ 20k regspeed either but it would def have to be starting early ish and there's the Sunday challenge already. It's just not feasible to have another big regspeed start after the Sunday change and as such I think turbo is the way to go on Sunday, let it start later and people winding down will def flick it in if it has a 20k or higher guarantee which it is 10000% to hit every time. During the week it's obv different but nobody is looking for a 80 player bowl after a long Sunday grind

Hi 888rep,

Do you guys plan on offering more NLO8 tournament across your site? Last time I visited the site, there were a few $6 NLO8 MTTs in the schedule.

If you look at Pokerstars' NLO8 schedule, they are offering tournaments across the schedule that pay $800+ for 1st. There is a daily $8.80 that runs at 12:05 EST with a 4k guarantee and gets 500+ runners. There are also hyper turbos MTTs that run every few hours and get 30-100 runners, paying out as much as $1500 for 1st. NLO8 is also a very popular in SNG format as they run 6-max NLO8 hyper turbo SNGs between $1.50 and $500, with the $1.50 to $15s SNGs starting around the clock.

Do you guys have any plans to offer something similar to what Pokerstars is offering? You are missing out on an opportunity by your poor offerings. I would play more on 888 if I knew there were more NLO8 games running.

Sunday turbo crocodile will do as well but 160 is a bit steep for a turbo

Or change mega deep turbo to 160. Satties are way better for that buy in and the prize pool may very well not suffer

Good job on changing most of the structures 888. Tournaments that still really need it however are the $35 6max turbo at 22:02 BST, the $11 rebuy at 19:40 BST - with the earlier antes the prizepool is most likely going to blow up and the $11 KO at 18:00 BST.

Also change the format of the $1.50r turbo at 18:05 to exactly the same as the one that starts at 15:08 and then hopefully the prizepool will match that of it and start making it worth while for a lot of people to play.

The $24 deepstack at 18:15 could also do with a 5000 chip stack instead of 4000.

Do you have any plans for the roller coaster? It seems to be slowly dying either getting cancelled due to not running or just getting overlay everytime it does. Maybe a 6max format would suit its structure better or just updating the structure would be good.

Also like people have said before the timeslot between Twister and Breeze is a little dead and could do with a solid low/mid stakes freezeout like $15-55, a 6max tournament could also fit in there nicely as you have no offerings of that sort at that time?

Keep up the good work

had a very annoying problem today where the addon/rebuy buttons did not show up on my table in the 10r 3k guarantee. i was freaking out and even adjusted the table themes to see if the little button would show up. had like 1200 chips post addon at 100/200. prob cost me $20-$30 in equity.

anyone else ever had this happen? i played the same rebuy yesterday and did not have this problem.

Spoiler:

^^ screenshot of my table... isn't the addon buttons usually by the green $ sign?

sup bro was in vegas last week at the bellagio with 10 women on his shoulders because women can't resist men who had 15 tackles for losses in 1995. sup bro saw phil ivey and phil ivey let out a "sup bro?" and sup bro didn't say anything because sup bro only talks to people when sup bro wants to talk to people.

so if sup bro posts on this forum you better say "sup bro?" and sup bro might respond to you if you are lucky.

sup bro?
You sure you did not auto add on my screen also looks like this post auto add on

We set up a $1.50 6 max Super Turbo NLO SNG. Let's start by seeing if that gets any interest.

Pretty much all of our MTT's should now have the new structure. Let us know if you find any that don't and you think should. The $35 6 max at 21:15 GMT has the new structure. Couldnt find one at the time you mentioned. $11 R&A and KO both got earlier antes as of tomorrow. $1.50 format changed as suggested. $24 deepstack got 5,000. Roller Coaster will be tried as a 6 max as of tomorrow. Time slot will be addressed but not immediately. Many thanks for your feedback! Please PM me your username on 888.

This was supposed to pop up only in situations when your table breaks immediately when your'e knocked out. It is a mistake that all players get this message and it will be handled in an upcoming version.
