Changes/additions made today:

New Daily Deepstack series. The Deepstack Freezeouts from UCOP were very popular overall, with 15K starting stacks, 10 minute blinds and 3 hours of late reg. We are trialing them to see how they do. Each weekday at 17:00 GMT there will be one of these tournaments

Mondays - €500 €5.50
Tuesdays - €1,000 €11
Wednesdays - €1,500 €22
Thursdays - €2,000 €55
Fridays - €1,000 €11

Again, we will see how they do and adjust as needed. I am also happy with running 2 of these a day at the same time, with a higher and a lower buy-in (which would change daily). Today's €5.50 has just started

€1,000 Nightly Turbo Rebuy Super Bounty - €22. Bringing this back as it has been asked for a lot. The general problem was that it affected the Mosh Pit and the King Tusk, which is why it was removed before. Hopefully it will not be an issue this time. Nightly at 20:15 GMT

€300 Mini King Tusk - €2.20, same format at the King Tusk, happy to raise the buy-in to €3.30 or €5.50. Will see how it does. Nightly at 21:00 GMT

€750 Turbo Booster - €33/€22. 6 minute blinds and you can boost your stack with an extra buy-in anytime you are at or below starting stack, while late reg is open. This will be nightly at 21:15 GMT and will be adjusted depending on numbers

The nightly €250 Booster (€11) at 22:15 GMT is now a Turbo

I am still thinking about the other suggestions, namely the early afternoon tournaments and will update after coming to a decision

No monthly leaderboards yet, but I do like the idea

We do have a €50,000 Knockout tournament on the 31st March. This will be a €110 Super Bounty Freezeout (€50 per KO). Satellites will start to run from the 4th March

I can also announce that we will have another UCOP series in April. This will be €500K guaranteed and will be called UCOP Vegas. More details coming soon!

Some new/edited tournaments starting today and later in the week

Saturday Deepstack - €1,500 €33 @ 17:00 GMT
Monday Deepstack - €1,500 €33 @ 17:00 GMT

€1,250 Saturday Deep Fifty-Five (Booster) - €55/€33, same format as the The Deep Fifty-Five on weekdays at 20:00 GMT

€1,000 Afternoon Super Bounty - €22, same format as the €500 €11 at 15:00 GMT - this starts from Monday 25th

€750 Big Cool Wolf (Rebuy Super Bounty) - €11, larger version of the €200 €3.30 at 15:40 GMT - this starts from Sunday 24th

Updated the Mini King Tusk from a €300 €2.20 to a €500 €5.50, daily @ 21:00 GMT

Also, 6 minute breaks did start on Monday (18th). Late reg had to be extended on each tournament that hit a break (1 minute per break). If anyone notices any tournaments that are off (especially with end of late reg vs addon time), please post here or PM me the name of the tournament, so that I can check it

After the success of the €50K Blowout Special in December, we are planning to run a €50K each month that has no series in it. Next up is the €50,000 Knockout on the 31st March 2019, which will be a €110 Super Bounty (Freezeout). There will be a €50 bounty on each player.

Satellites start on the 4th March and will run daily right until the €50,000 Knockout starts. You will be able to directly satellite into the event from €0.11 each Sunday in a Monster Rebuy and there will be a €22 Mega Satellite with 50 seats guaranteed on the 31st March.

You can also play in one of the freerolls each day from the 24th - 30th March, which will each award 1 seat to the €50,000 Knockout. To qualify for any of the freerolls, simply play 1 raked cash game hand within the previous 24 hours.

For anyone who doesn't cash in the €50,000 Knockout, there will be a flip tournament on the 3rd April. This will give away €800 worth of tickets for UCOP Vegas. All non cashers will be automatically registered, and there is no need to be logged into the client to win, as all players will be all in each hand. The prizes will be as follows:

Place 1st – 16th: €22 ticket
Place 17th – 40th: €11 ticket
Place 41st – 74th: €5.50 ticket

UCOP Vegas is our next UCOP series and it will run in April. Between Sunday 14th and Sunday 28th April the below €500,000 guaranteed schedule is planned. Please get back to me with any feedback you have on it by the end of this Thursday - PM me or post it in this thread

The schedule may change depending on feedback received:

CSV: http://mpn.poker/wp-content/uploads/...edule-v0.9.csv

Some stats about the tentative schedule:



I will be able to post more details regarding the overall promotion once it is finalized, but it does have a €20,000 leaderboard, which is double that of UCOP Passport! The winner will get a trip for 2 to Las Vegas worth €7,500, as well as a €2,500 online tournament tickets package!!

That UCOP series seem nice, especially with better leaderboard. Pity that there's no PLO8 though.

But could you consider switching deepstack and first rebuy for each Sunday? It makes no sense one has to start grinding so early especially since first tournament is turbo.

That 5,5€ Super Bounty rebuy is gonna last for ages with 10 min blinds. Make it at least turbo instead, please (hyper would be even better). Not a great fan of bounty rebuys either, rebuys should be rebuys and bounties should be just bounties (preferrable with quick structure since they're action game).

We have adjusted and increased the Sunday schedule slightly:

€7,500 Daily Deepstack, €110 @ 17:00 GMT (replaces the €5K Big Top)
€5,000 Hitman (Super Bounty), €110 Super Bounty with a €50 bounty per player - it replaces the €5K Mount Olympus, starting at 18:30 GMT

One Daily Deepstack runs each day and this is the current schedule:

This will only affect the first Sunday, and I prefer that the higher buy-ins start slightly later to help numbers. The 2nd Sunday Deepstack will have 15K chips and 10 minute levels as normal

It did incredibly well with the listed structure last time (guaranteed at €1K and got €2.6K)

Is it possible to not have hand for hand during pay jumps pre final table? This really slows down the game, sucks especially when you are short and see so few hands but your stack keeps getting shorter without anything happening.

+1 This has been mentioned before, could it be looked at again please? Essentially worsens the structure/play unnecessarily imo.

A €3,000 Sunday Big 1R1A €55 @ 20:00 GMT 5K/5K/10K, 8 minute levels has been added to today's schedule

There are 2 satellites for it, both are €5.50 Turbo Freezeouts, starting at 17:45 GMT & 18:45 GMT

Satellites for the €50,000 Knockout (€110 Super Bounty Freezeout on the 31st March) are live in the lobby. You can satellite directly into it for as little as €0.10 and indirectly starting from €0.01

We have several special satellites for it each Sunday, including:

€0.11 Monster Rebuy - 1 Seat guaranteed @ 15:45 GMT
€11 Turbo Rebuy - 5 Seats guaranteed @ 18:05 GMT

One task of today's March Missions is to play a satellite with a buy-in of €5.50 or above, and there are many to choose from for most of today's majors, as well as the €50,000 Knockout

Apologies about not responding to this when you first posted it. I did ask internally and the response was not great with regards to having a solution. I confirmed again on Friday that this cannot be easily changed and would require dev work. The priority on it might not be that high but I will talk to MPN Alex, and others, to see what can be done as dev is now being done on tournament related features/items. Sorry about not having better news with regards to this!

Played a tourney on the new software. Tried it when first came out, hated it. Decided to try it again.

I can not see the numbers on the table. Seriously. Make them bolder, the font is so thin.

Timebank! An automatic timebank! Not a clock that pops up two seconds before I am going to time out that I have to click on. It is 2019!

I would consider myself a loyal 32Red MPN player and I go to every MPNPT live stop but basically at this stage I can't really play on Microgaming as the software is so far behind and takes so much extra concentration and focus to play there, yet the rake is one of the highest for MTTs. 100+10, raked rebuys, turbos the same rake as reg speed.

Sorry to say that I can get a better product for less fees elsewhere.

UCOP Vegas is our latest UCOP series running from Sunday 14th to Sunday 28th April with a €500,000 guarantee!

Events

There are 61 events across the series, with buy-ins ranging from €3.30 to €320 and guarantees up to €50,000. The series is made up of 55 NLHE events & 6 PLO events and all are open for registration now.

Leaderboard

A €20,000 leaderboard will reward the winner with a €7,500 trip for 2 to Las Vegas as well as €2,500 in online tournament tickets. An additional €10,000 worth of cash prizes will be spread over the top 50.

Schedule

There are at least 3 events each day, with a lot more on Sundays. The full schedule and details can be found here:

https://mpn.poker/promotions/ucop-vegas/


Satellites



You can directly satellite into the €50,000 UCOP Main Event for as little as €0.10. There are multiple ways daily to satellite into the Main Event and there will be a 50 Seat Mega Feeder on Sunday 28th costing €22 to enter.

Some other highlights:

1 Seat Monster Rebuy to 50 Seat Mega Feeder - €0.11 Daily @ 17:40 BST

1 Seat Monster Rebuy to UCOP Main Event - €0.11 on Sundays @ 15:45 BST
5 Seat Turbo Rebuy to UCOP Main Event - €11 on Sunday 14th & 21st @ 18:05 BST
5 Seat Super Turbo Rebuy to UCOP Main Event - €5.50 on 28th @ 16:42 BST

5 Seat Monster Rebuy to UCOP High Roller - €5.50 on 28th @ 15:35 BST
10 Seat Mega Feeder to UCOP High Roller - €55 on 28th @ 16:20 BST

The BIG news about the direct feeding satellites is when you win your 2nd (or more) seat to the same event, you will now get a generic ticket of the same value for the 2nd+ win. For example, the first UCOP Main Event satellite that you win, you will be automatically registered to the event, and for any additional wins, you will get a €110 ticket that can be used for any tournament that costs €100 + €10. No need any longer to contact your Op to have them exchange it. The only exceptions to this are the 3x €215s and 1x €320 events.

If for some reason you do not get a generic ticket of the same value, please post here or PM me so that I can look into it!
