MAC improvements will begin to be rolled out yes
However - these will be the first stages of our new look and feel that other users had previously - over the coming months we will continue to roll out further improvements and hope to have MAC up to date and on par with windows by August/September

Very sad the 215$ main is not 2-day event, it's going to last till about 10am. I might still play but man that is just way too long not to be 2 days.

Expected leaderboard to run from 5th of February as they were announce in December. Didn't expect Party to change it with virtually no advance warning. Decent compensation though that they add prizes for March... will it mean that for first month top20 gets seats in high leaderboard?

And when will Party Live $$$ tournaments be implemented?

Oh bummer. Looks like it's just bunch of tweaks for the existing software... I understand that developing whole new software from scratch is expensive, maybe way more expensive than Party is comfortable investing, but kinda had hopes up that they went with a brand new software. The current engine is likely not versatile enough to ever compete with Stars' software. Or vs current Winamax software & previous FTP which were IMO the only good softwares that have ever been out there. We'll see though... (I heard Party's mobile app is rly good though so props if that's the case.)

+1 for mandatory 2-day moan on Powerfest Main Events

Btw, why doesn't Party allow players from China? Seems lucrative market?

Not sure what happened with Party live - that was supposed to have its own leaderboard for 2018 (which I assumed would start Jan 1st - maybe incorrectly)

Looks like it will be a weekly leaderboard anyways. High leaderboard will have a semi- manageable schedule, but the medium and low will be 24/7 again.

I expect the $2.6k on Sunday will once more be included, if only for the artistic merit.

With 24x 14min and the rest 16min it's between 24*14 + 25*16 = 736 and 24*14 + 33*16 = 864 minutes of playtime. Or between 12.26 and 14.4 hours, plus about 1.5-2.5 hours of breaks if they work like they do on stars where it's 5 minutes after every table has finished their hand.

I didn't finish high school maths nor did I achieve an actual skill level above it later in life. It boggles my mind that party A) didn't do these calculations/a similar estimation or B) did them and thought "this is fine". If I come across as harsh it's because it's very hard not to be cynical when it seems blatantly obvious to me after looking at this for 10 minutes that if the field goes over ~1000 people you can't do a slower structure than 12/14 mins without making it multiday or having insane lengths. And it's not even like this structure is insanely nice, if you do a 2-day event you could easily go 16*15min into 20min levels.

The one thing that's nice compared to previous versions is that we start with 100 instead of 250bb, so reaching the money/reasonable deepness will be a bit faster so it's a bit less likely you'll play until very late and cash for something insignificant. I guess I'll play because I go to sleep kinda late anyway and the value should be huge, but man, I always feel sorry for any recreational who has no idea how long this thing will take and registers, only to find themselves spewing it off at 3am because there's still 300 people left and they have to work at 9.

Yaah. Prob just gonna skip the Party tournaments tomorrow, in case bigger overlay will make Party take a different stance on 2-day events in the next Powerfest.

Same goes for ACR... Their current milly overlays all the time, but it's basically unplayable for me as it runs from 9pm-12:30am. I'm guessing they would easily hit GTD since there are a lot of Europeans who would fire maximum re-entries if it would just be 2-day event. Although I understand ACR's stance since it's the field consists heavily of Amurricans.

Is it completely new software built on a new engine this time? Last time you've advertised "full new software" it turned out to be just a new skin not very different from what you can buy online or create via PartyCaption (and you banned me on Twitter for mentioning it @you ).



Not sure if that's right place to ask the question, but does Party plan to go on French/Spanish market any time soon?

Tournament reached the bubble now after about 6 hours and 15 minutes. Way to long for an 1 day tournament in my opinion.

We already are in both the Spanish and French markets
If you are asking regarding joint liquidity - yes it will happen in the coming months likely also including Italy and Portugal

Tickets will be converted when the series is complete in full - likely within 48 - 72 hours
Two events are still running - no tickets have been converted yet

So there will be a Partypoker.fresitpt soon? Will it be possible to play party.com and this new platform at the same time?

You're not wrong on that 6h15 to reach itm is too long for a 1day event, but it took even longer with the 250bb starting stack structure.
