I would like it officially noted then that, i'm a REC player and I hate the bigger starting stacks. No one asked for my opinion on the matter...is it because i'm a girl?!

We should start a poll on the matter - see what feedback PP gets then...

So far it's 0 for and 1 (me) against.

I like the bigger stacks. I think theres clear evidence from Live events at WSOP that fish like big starting stacks and I think that transfers to online as well.

Typing bets with big stacks live is comparable, as always great point

Im guessing about 5 hours ITM, 8-10 hours for the win.

Having these big stacks in huge fields just doesn't make sense for online poker, typing in large numbers is just obviously stupid and unnecessary. Maybe its a decent idea at first for a one off special or something but to have this for every tournament doesn't seem right.

Would personally prefer a few different stacks/structures like 3k, 5k 10k depending on which tourney/major etc.

That's a non-issue if I've ever seen one. If that's your only problem, you should really stfu and hope it stays that way forever.

Regarding improved lobby/table sizing, improved lobby info and table specific colouring - these items are on the to-do list and will be launched in the coming months to improve player experience
I don't have an exact timeline to share however as stated previously our improvements will be rolled out over the coming months in stages


I don't see any issues with dates or stats
Can you share a little more detail, please?


As always other feedback has been collated and shared with the relevant teams for review

Thanks,

Colette

Website states series begins 30 April, however first event plays 6 May I believe.

Also we are use to hearing the canned response that Party is working on it, and it will be rolled out in the future. Is it possible to be a bit more specific? 15 years from now is also the future, just saying... maybe stating something like over next 12 months we have 3 scheduled updates where we (Party) are planning on updating table/lobby sizing AND bet slider functions, as well as other upgrades. Highlighting the most requested updates will allow your customers to have a target and hold Party accountable to implement these upgrades. The benefit to Party is added credibility and visibility to their customers--leading to more loyal customer base, and people will not constantly ask the same updates (week in and week out).

Im on board as a fan of changes thus far, but I still see some opportunities Party isnt fully capturing.

The info is correct - as per the promotion details on the website Powerseries events are included >

To place on the leaderboards, play POWERFEST events and Power Series tournaments to earn points and climb your way to the top positions.

All info for the leaderboards can be found here >

Regarding software and player improvements, I have stated in previous posts the aim is to roll out several changes/ new releases in the first half (Q1/Q2) of the year with the aim to complete and also have MAC synced by August/September
I can not confirm exact dates as I simply don't have them to share - business needs change day to day - we have a game plan in place and hope to keep to it
The poker team also continue to work on an improved regular schedule and work with ongoing player feedback - again changes are being made regularly until the team are confident we have the best offer we can in place for all players - again its work in progress

So i'm new to the party satellites and have a ticket I would prefer to not use for any of the offerings in the next seven days so I will probably use it to preregister a Powerfest. If I do that will I still be able to play target specific satellites to that event or are those exclusively for people who are not already registered?

Also I think having to click a tiny "read more" in the lobby to find out about the expiration date on won satellites is unfortunate, if I hadn't been following this thread the thought would never had crossed my mind. I think it would be a good idea to put it in the main lobby information as well.

Software improvements are way to slooooooooooooowwww.
Just buy the company that owns partycaption or the guys
made it.
By the way what about BWIN SOFTWARE UPDATE??????????????
Maybe you know Collette cause i've asked several times the Bwin rep
but no response.
+1 for smaller starting stacks.something between 5K-30K.
Also smaller stacks to live events.I don't know player feedback as a viewer
don't like it.
@xLAGERTHAx 3<

3k 5k regular and 10k 30k for Special events starting stacks would be nice.

if we could get in the near future new/other table themes and /or Backgrounds would be nice.

satelittes for 11,- 22,- mtts. would be nice.

saturday and sunday Needs more and better early mtts...in the 1,1 - 5,5 buy in area. it would work bec the People have free...

if you call the , for example, thursday "big thursday" there should be bigger gtds...or what is the logic behind "big" ? even a bigger buy in would be more Logical...now it s only the Name...-and People see that!
- (i speak ab the micros and that area- maybe in bigger mtts the pool IS bigger thursdays...? )

so far

This x100.

I hate the new SS.

I was a huge fan of 30k for everything, 50k for special majors, and maybe the odd 100k for powerfest or bigger events. This was a perfect balance. It's gotten WAYYY out of hand now.

It should feel somewhat special to run up a milly stack, now you can easily do just that and not even cash. Please revert back to the 30k's!

i read that 888 will make big changes after there series..
new schedule new satelittes and they will introduce pkos....

they have a lot to fight with there traffic....(i am happy ab this and they get what they deserfe-my thinking)...
...BUT this site has 1 Thing what you not have- variety.
they have 4max,6max,8max, 9handed and they have "only final table paid" - just a few things

so it is really time now for a -so far- ready product

hold the many Players which will come to Play Monster series and powerfest at your site....plz.


ty

Can rep explain why schedule is constantly changing, its really annoying

I'm having a laugh reading all these big stacks complaints. I think you're diverting attention from the important issues.

It's true that stacks are a bit too big for the daily schedule, but honestly they're the LAST of my problems when my lobby freezes (on Mac) on every single filter change on a Sunday evening, freezing also the tables with it. Or when Powerfest published structures seem to make for marathon single-day tournaments, and nobody answers questions about this.

@Colette, what is Part's position on tournament length in Powerfest ? Valid points have been raised. What are you length estimates for Sunday evening championship events ? Are we going to need emergency structure adjustments again after the first Sunday? Can we please have them before ?

This! And not only are tournaments changing, like the vanilla $215 500k gtd sunday tournament changing into a bounty hunter, but the late reg varies randomly too ! I pushed a very loose all-in, thinking I'm still in the re-entry period in level 11th of this tournament, and only afterwards I noticed it had only 10 levels of late reg !! Can you please stick to a consistent late reg length convention, or otherwise put some indicators on the tables of when the late reg ends ?

i am still not sure about what i think about the always changing late reg. and formats of the mtts....i think here we get a bit variety i think it s not bad...but only SOME mtts should have this changes-but permanent. 10 Level and/or 12 Level late reg. i absolut like.

true, yes.

and the Problem is not only with mac. i have the same Problem (i belive) -said it a few times - every time i go to "Settings" and go back to the main Lobby i have freeze Problems..and dont see the Player countrys at the tables....i found a (not optimal but hey) way - i make my changes - Close the client- re open party- and have no Problems (till i want to Change something in "Settings" )

Now I have a question. I think I remember a lot of discussion in this thread on these tickets you would win and they have an expiration date of only 7 days out. Now I was playing a sat this afternoon and it was certainly looking like it was rolling right into a 215-tournament this early evening (Europe). I busted 39 with 25 tickets but honestly it did not matter I believe since I could not play this tournament tonight.

Was I mistaken somehow and did these not have 7 days to begin with. It is a lot less appealing this way in my opinion.

Thanks.

Got e-mail with this info: Daily PLO - now part of The Power Series!

Out of curiosity is LB points system still working @ PLO (or has any other tournament problems like mix-max had last week)?

very happy to see u changed the 6max tournaments to 8max on mondays

All - We have planned maintenance Tuesday 24th April between 07:30 - 08:30AM CET

All our games will be affected, our services will not be available during this period
You may notice some changes in our regular schedule this evening due to the downtime

Thanks, Colette

Right. Frivolous complaints about stack sizes just abuse the fact that the thread contains responsive Party personnel. Peak attention seeking.

Actually enjoyed having new mtts every day/week

Possibly an idea for the mtt schedule: Have somewhat diff weekly scheds during the week, say 2 diff weekly schedules per month where you dont have the same dailies every week but every other week f.e.

Not saying they have to be completely diff every hour of the day, but just mix up some tournies here and there would be nice.

Some fixed and variable dailies so to speak.

I happen to have asked partypoker about this issue. their answer is, you can register for any game that accepts the ticket, i.e. you can reg for a tournament many days from now, albeit your ticket will expire much earlier.

BUT, after the expiration date, you CANNOT un-register! The moment you click un-register, your ticket immediately expire and you get nothing. So, as long as you don't un-register, you can use your ticket for any tournament that accepts it.

morning,

if we have a 2,2 or 3,3 buy in tournament...and at the same starting time a 0,5 or a 1,1 buy in tournament...whether pko or regular etc. - i believe it would be better to brush the smaller ones...and at the same time make the gtd of the 2,2 and 3,3 bigger...bad idea?

i mean a Player who buy in for 0,5 or 1,1 has no Problem to pay 2,2 or 3,3...and for a big gtd...-so there would be no worries from the smallest Players ab it.

the early rebuy was better with 2,2 buy in from my view....when i am at home some days at this time -i Play it! the 3,3 is ok....but a bit expensive bec. rebuy / add on. i would Play it only from time to time or/and without rebuy and addon
