I personally prefer getting a 1mill + stack as a rare occurrence , makes it feel a bit more special.
With party starting stacks that is isnt the case, probably a daily thing if you play everyday.

50k ss was okay but 100k feels a little overkill imo

yup, personally i dont really care. i dont get confused by having different ss in diff mtts.

prefer to keep the bigger ss for series tho as many of us do i think.

cuz where will it end once they decide to have 250k or 1M ss for series and then want to implement them in the daily sched?

Sorry to repeat myself with a question that possibly doesn't even belong here, but is there any way to check what refund you got for which tournament for that messy Sunday?

Just had a look at what I might play and noticed the 'Smooth' MTT's once again.

I'm still confused as to what a 'Smooth' MTT actually is and what separates it from a normal MTT.

This is what it says about 'Smooth' MTT's on the PP website: Nice and easy going, that's the strategy for Saturday, with a lineup of tourneys featuring a 50 big blind structure that allows for plenty of smooth playing. Buy-ins range from $1.10 to $215.

So, that's the difference - a 50 BB structure? What does that mean exactly?

When I think if BB's, I think of my SS but, that's obviously not the case - as the lobby shows a 100K SS and starting blinds of 500/1k which equates to 100BB's.

Obviously i'm missing something and don't have a clue as to what this format is all about so, could someone please explain it to me in simple terms so I can actually understand?

Thanks.

About upcoming Monster Series, will there be promotions alongside it? Leaderboard or something else?

Re: smooth.

If you look at the actual structures you will see that they hardly increase at all from level to level.

O' yip, now I get it. Just compared the structures between a 'Smooth' and a 'PKO' and can see the massive differences after the early levels so, now understand where the 50BB structure and term 'Smooth' comes into it.

Thanks for the reply and for pointing me in the right direction.

Hey,

About the $11 tournament that finished at 5am, this was a human error, the guy who did it was very apologetic about it and is one of the great guys in the company who does a lot of great stuff behind the scenes, everybody makes mistakes!

We have cut the time on lots of tournaments now whilst still giving very good average stack/structure throughout.

@OurSurveySays most of the 215-->1050 and 109-->530 sats in the afternoon have too many tickets gtd and most of of the times don't even start because of not enough players.
Could you do something about it?

@OurSurveySays
When can we expect to see some 8max freezeouts in the GMT morning schedule? not one running until 1pm apart from 6max??? Surely this is an easy fix just put some freezeouts at x:30 ??
Or are there going to be no freezeouts in the offpeak schedule? I see there is only one at 11am on Sundays, which seems a bit bizzare.

Really don't like these 6max only evenings...
Was wednesday and now friday same . If you have to put in 6 max at least mix it with fullring . Don't make every tourney for hours 6max it sucks for people who want to play more than 2 tables on party who are also multisiting

hahaha you funny :P.

The hype is gone, still 2 miserable tourneys per hour , all looking the same with tricky names so we think they are different , 6-max off peak only. no sats off peak, ******ed GTD when u have sats (instead of a clever all day well though qualifiers) , huge jump between buy ins..
serioulsy wtf

= 888MTT *register cllick click
= PP MTT *nothanks
= OVERLAY

Is there any way you guys can fix the note taking in fast forward poker?

I'm genuinely considering not playing on your site due to this issue:

Here is ALL that needs to be done, I just want it like PS so when I click a person's name to take notes, it STAYS WITH ME DURING THE NEXT HAND....OR AT LEAST make it so I can take notes in the hand replayer

This is absolutely brutal for me.

off peak rebuys are a fantastic addition. I think you should extent the rebuy period so you cant just late reg and rebuy + addon.

Some off peak 109s + 55 should also be added I think. Maybe just 1 of each.

Was first like OMG first positive change (I thought missing PLO was just misthought) in ages but then noticed that they run only European morning . Wonder if they have any plan to actually implement rebuys or just want to show again "how there's no popular support" this time by making them start 7.00, 9:00 and 11:00 AM EET (PM would actually make sense).

E: Not that rebuys wouldn't work off-peak. They might very well work better than re-entries, surely better than freezeouts.
