Poker management - the person/persons who manage the Poker room team which consists of multiple people who deal with the various tasks involved in running the room

So there isn't 1 person that manages/creates the tournaments/structures etc? Maybe this is not the correct approach?

I want to say more, i think the whole tiered system party currently have with tournaments/times etc is poor and does not work very well imo. First of all, it looks completely unattractive to have a tournament at xx time then have this copied for all the other buy in's, it just lacks so much creativity. I just feel as though you need to mix up the tournament starting times and have more variety overall. I certainly do not want all these tournaments starting at the same time then have no other options.

The 200k starting stacks are just totally over the top, what is the reason for this? Can you not just have normal structures like all other sites?

Regarding tournament series, it is crazy to me you have all these series but yet they lack so much creatvity in them, most of them have the exact same tournaments repeated daily for the entire series? What is the reason for this? We have been complaining about the same things forever but still here we are. It is utterly frustrating for so many people here saying the same things over and over, yet nothing is done about it?

I've said this exact thing when they first introduced the "new" schedule with all the boosted GTDs. All they literally did was remove 60% of the games and added their prizepools to the "new" games. I liked their very old schedule when we still had tournaments like Contender, Uppercut etc, because I could play primarily only on PartyPoker, however now they force me to play on other networks so that I can get my necessary volume.

Can't agree more. When Party were running tournaments every 30 mins at pretty much every buy-in level they had at the time, I enjoyed playing there a lot more and was putting 90-100% of my volume on Party, but now since they keep removing tournaments from their schedule just to accommodate their "increased" GTDs it becomes so much harder to stay loyal to just Party. My volume on Party has dropped from 100% to 30% since they started completely messing with the schedule.

new sch. really bad. these 11$ low GTDs whole day running just not worth to lower stars volume and play here. why you have to change buyin levels, formats and starting time every month. dont get it.
now i play like 3mtts a day with this new sch. and i used a lot more as i wanted to lower stars and party offered some good mtts for this. for example 22 deepstacks,33-11 main, 11-22-16.50-33 bountys w great gtds. now all is gone. makes no sense.

these new rebuys replaced most of them, total pointless with these GTDs, pls just delete them, it s a joke to run a rebuy tourneys peak time with these GTDs. at least for low.
these turbos,hypers also took some regular mtt buyin and format away. who want to play that many turbos peak time? just delete turbos and make a decent sch. and maybe add turbos from 20:00cet but not before, at least not that many. focus on the regular speed mtts peak time pls. you did a great job with it when u didnt had that many pointless low gtd turbo hyper and rebuy mtt runing at :30 every hour

power turbo $27 at 18:30CET had 87 runners yesterday. think is shows what im talking about. 87 runners at 18:30CET. LOL.
a $16.50 bounty builder turbo at 19:30CET peak time, only had 197 runners?
these glitch at :30 every hour just unnecessary to run. bring back these mtts with non turbo structure and 197runners will become 1097runners


just bring back the old sch. you had running before powerfest. it was pretty cool i think.

I don't understand why do you complain about turbos with 5% rake. They are of much better value than any of 180s of Stars. Small field tournaments provide more FT experience which recs will enjoy.

Collette, do you plan to run any satellites to this Sunday's $33 200k event?

Is there any chance that one or more of these members could actively post in this thread. As an example they could state that 200k chips is really well received by this player segment etc... so therefore people on this forum won't keep mentioning their disapproval.

Feedback without explanations in return has really run its course. Patrick to some degree came on here and did that for a while... some cherry picking on his part, but Party would be better served with some degree of give and take.

Are they on holiday since 2016 ???

All your points are valid...stated multiple times since 2018 by many players
But they are not here to listen, it s quite obvious after more than a year of dumb decisions...

the copy paste is the main mark of laziness fron their side...
their is no flavor - 1.1/5.5/22/etc.... same starting stack n smilar boring structure...
Then 2hour later.... REPEAT !
that s why nobody can relate or stick to it

Anyway...what s the point of making feedbacks, they do the opposite....

PP: We're increasing the 30K starting stacks to 100K...

Players: We don't like 100K starting stacks, there too big...

PP: Ok, we're now increasing them to 200K...

Players: We're no longer playing on PP.
__________

Players: We need more buy-in levels and less of a jump between buy-ins...

PP: Ok, we've added more buy-in levels...

Players: Great, a lot more people are playing on PP now...

PP: We're removing previously added buy-in levels...

Players: We're no longer playing on PP.
__________

PP: We're adding mix/max/deep games to the schedule...

Players: Cool, a bit more variety to choose from...

PP: When we say 'adding', what we actually mean is 'replacing' pretty much everything with these games and offering very little of anything else.

Players: We're no longer playing on PP.
__________

PP: We're removing most of the re-entries and reducing late reg times...

Players: Great, this will result in a much improved overall MTT experience

PP: We're re-introducing the previously removed re-entries and extending late reg times...

Players: We're no longer playing on PP
__________

PP Rep: All feedback noted and passed on to management...

PP Management: All feedback ignored...

Players: We're no longer playing on PP.

Exactly^^

Please everyone that agrees with this to quote it, maybe then someone will eventually not just read it but reply

This and mostly many times back and forth sums up last two years. Pretty sad, because of amount invested on forms of overlay / promos / time would've at right hands brought PartyPoker #1 on terms of MTTs.

Well, at least they prob made BitbStaking #1 staking company

This +3

No sats, buy in direct only

No, as stated previously I collate all the feedback and share with the relevant team for review
We also review feedback from multiple forum groups, our live events and our player panel who collate feedback from the community
If/when feedback is offered it is shared on the thread
Multiple members of the team also actively read the forums regularly and are aware of recent feedback regarding schedule changes


Thanks

Colette

I ve registerd a deepstack PKO shi t.... i have time to quote it 100 times lol...no action at all

then please ONCE, explain why..... there s is ZERO valid reason for that....

the no sat decisions is really killing your groth potential by half at least.... a god damn lobotomized monkey would agree

for once speak with your guts Colette, not just - i collect info here - I want to hear the human beeing inside you, not the compulsary and pretty fake rep who just ....do the job...

You are very diplomatic and nice person BUT pretty useless in your answers as well, sorry to say.....YES sorry i am after a year i result oriented..... i am customer (unfortunately too loyal and still trying to be)

If someone from the team is already actively reading the thread why can't they use a few minutes to come in here and try to explain some of their decisions? Every argument here is met with a vague answer that it's based on feedback collected from various places, which is extremely hard to believe when the feedback on the worlds biggest poker forum is unanimously that certain changes are poor. What we have now is a situation where you act as a middleman to the people making the schedule and players are not heard and also have no option to interact with the decision makers, and because you are not the one making the decision we have no chance to understand what their rationale is. A site like MPN that has less than a quarter of the players you do have multiple reps including a dedicated MTT rep who is actively explaining choices and listening to input. Why is it that we can expect so much less from Party?

hello all,

we must be carefull that we don't come in a Situation where we have Party vs the/some Players situation. this is not good and obv not helpfull! but i understand everyone-in full! esp. the People like me which are in this mouse wheel over years,now. years.

what are the biggest Problems at the Moment? i didnt look at the schedule today so far-do we have changes? if not:

-if you ask me it's to much mixmax

-to much room between buy in level's- for example 2,20 buy in and the next step is 11,00. this is not good!

-i Need more 1-2 re entry or freezeout 8max or 9handed

-200k starting stack is to much- please please max. 100k. -i think this should have done/changed yesterday.

-1k gtd 2,2 buy in rebuy tournaments are not attractive to me (with/from 3,3 buy in and higher it would be unplayable to me-but with 1,1 buy in i would Play it sometimes- but not with big fun and NOT with 200k starting stack)!
i would remove some and make 2 nice ones per day with good gtd's....

- as a good will give us/me casual cash games for everyone back please! if you would try ONETIME fast five for everyone i would be thankfull too.

etc. -but so far enough for now



btw. please guys don't bash me for my english skills,ty

edit. sats area Need a good Change-Special mega sats etc...the full programm- this is so important!

yes ty for the post!

Regarding comments from above posters, I have for many years manned the thread and shared feedback/worked closely with the poker room team
We are happy with how the system has worked previously and will continue to use this method going forward
Apologies if this disappoints

Our schedule changes are made to deal with an ever-changing and evolving poker market, we do value our player feedback and as stated multiple times it's always reviewed and considered
Many of our ongoing changes are made based on this player feedback - multiple players ask for change, we try to implement said changes

Regarding buy-in levels, this is a specific area under constant review
Following player requests recently, we changed the $22 buy into a $33 buy-in hence the increased gap from the smaller buy-in games
Some, however, may not appreciate the change it's near impossible to please everyone
Should we add buy-ins for each and every level - we simply dilute the fields and have fewer runners at each level resulting in multiple games underperforming
Our schedule - as a whole - currently offers multiple buy-in levels
Yes, we may have removed some games and increased guarantees on others, however, we don't want too many games in the lobby with lower guarantees and feel the prior option is a better solution for our players overall and the room ecology

I do feel the mix max games were a positive addition to our offering, the numbers have shown these games are very popular and continue to grow Yes it may feel it has been a little overdone however the games continue to show support from the players and growth - we will review other games some may feel are now missing from the schedule
FO offering and the sats are currently areas under review

With regards to the blind levels - we decreased these across our games to improve the player experience
Multiple players complained regularly our games were taking too long and finished too late - so we added the smooth structure as outlined and discussed in detail with Patrick a few months ago (scroll back a few pages) - this change means the games are all slightly improved and quicker to complete - this is unlikely to change
Player feedback overall was massively positive regarding these changes

We will continue to review our offerings and make changes when and where necessary

Thanks

Colette

oh please.... GET DA FAK OUT OF HERE !
get yourself an accelerate MBA paid by the company then and also for the decision makers....
The poker market evolving every week/month..... please please please ..... u lost even more credibility....
this is just or completely hypocrite or completely stupid..... (must be a mix of both in your team).

I prefer the persons at AMAYA holding for sure an MBA saying for few years **** the players....at least they honest with their money making strategy.....and anyway even being *******s they still manage to cater a better product....


@florianger : english is pretty bad, but you try your best haha
disagree with you..... the clash time has come.... let s see if they bring a top brain here (yes on the reference forum) to justify their piss poor decisions

Really guys....if u hate PS or don t wan t copy them.... copy paste WINAMAX and you will triple your traffic in 6 months....

Prooven track records for 10 years... (you only compete with them in LIVE events)

I assume "one of the above posters" is me? It still seems like most of what you are doing in this thread is cherry picking comments and deflection (though very politely). It's called a discussion thread while in reality none of the people in charge of the tournaments are willing to discuss anything with the players. You have said the team that is directly responsible for the tournament schedule regularly read this thread. Why do they not have any interest in engaging and explaining the need for the constant changes?

I play on eight other sites and I can honestly say that this year Party has had more changes to their schedule than all the rest of them combined.

This is incredibly vague, again what is these ever-changing conditions that have caused the schedule to change multiple times a month. No other sites does this, what insight does Party Poker have about the market that everyone else is lacking, could you please share some of it with us or ask the tournament team?

You can understand with statements like this that we were promised at the beginning of the year why most of us are slightly frustrated now. Pads seems to be one of the most important figures wrt the schedule but won't post here anymore, the rest of the people in charge of the schedule reads the forum but also refuses to engage with the community. Why won't they post here?

Peter is absolutely killing it with these detailed updates to MPN's schedule. Could we have the same the same type of update in this thread? I think it would be very appreciated by your customers given how hard it is to find the weekly changes.

this doesn't disappoint me- the communication between you and the Players was always good till very good! i have no doubt ab your work and i believe/trust you 100% that you are closely with the pokerteam...many examples for this- (and the good communication/results- sometimes very fast) -i could say if my english would be better

all good for me! ! ! and respect for YOU in person!

but i think im out now...i will not Play 200k stacks anymore...and only for THIS cash game and sit&gos i dont want to Play!

there's a Point you/i must respect the way it goes...there's nothing to say for me anymore!

all the best
