not too many rec players are playing it, thats why i suggest to change the sun500 into a 1k 1RE with 100k grt. I would think that the 150 regs which are playing the 500one are gonna play the 1k on a sunday too.
1k on a monday is still a bad spot for it

Cliff:
-> Sunday500 CHANGE into 1k Sun 100k grt 1RE
-> Cancel Monday Highroller
-> Introduce Tuesday 500$ with like 30-40k grt (other sites are running big games on tuesdays too, so the regs are gonna play it)
-> We-Sat 200-350$ HighrollerMTT with 10-25k grt

SundayMajor could easily run an hour earlier. I would guess most player start on sunday latest 1h before the sun200 is now. So it would be perfect for pretty much everybody to start the 200+500 (or 1k) one hour ealier. Canadians, Brazilians and Mexicans are playing anways and can still latereg if they want to start later. For Europeans would be one hour earlier much appreciated.

Hi Schmette,

I will again raise the issue of an earlier start time - however, as I said previously the team are hesitant to make any further changes to the summer schedule - though lets see their thoughts on the new schedule starting in September.

The high roller for now is doing ok and seems to have attracted a player base on the Monday - however, as we speak the team are currently working on a player survey regarding the high roller and I would appreciate if I post the link here you take a second to answer the questions.

As its reoccurring topic now regarding the start times of the Sunday Majors I will discuss this with the team again tomorrow.

Thanks

Colette

Admittedly I've not been playing much since the "loyalty" scheme changed for the worse (I appreciate that may be unclear; I mean the first of this year's changes) but I am an active player for account purposes. And given Stars gets most of my rake at the moment, your beancounters might want to understand what would switch that around.

Not sure why you missed it - however, seeing as a few of you on the thread want to offer your feedback on various topics and we appreciate that, would it be beneficial to all if I directly posted the link to any surveys sent out here so you can all participate?

Definitely

September is far away, hope your team get a bit more flexible and is willing to change some things earlier. Your new owner for example is changing things sometimes in a day or week.

Anyway appreciated your effort from you and the team.

Yes please!

Anything in the works to bring back a shoot out style format like in years past? These were fun. Also, I see several super bounties (50/50) on the schedule, any plans for a progressive bounty (KO)? Thanks

Shoot out style - we have no plans for now to reinstate - possibly as a GOTM - agree these are certainly a fun format however there are some negatives to the format also
Progressive bounty is in the pipe line - though no confirmed date for now and other development tasks will take priority
07-21-2015 , 12:00 PM
Thanks, definitely make shoot out a GOTM then if no plans to reinstate it fully. As primarily a SNG player these really appealed to me.
07-21-2015 , 01:01 PM
Sadly recognized that the 5k 20$ 1RE which is starting now 18:45 CET has still no break at 18:55. Please fix this problem which is there for month now. 7/9Players are timebanking out and folding hands. If its not possible to have a break after 10 min due to your software, then start this game at 19:00.
07-21-2015 , 04:21 PM
Had connection troubles today. Everytime it was my turn software freezed, told establishing connection and then I was finally able to act.

Happened at $50+. Anyone else?

Hi

As promised I looked into this in some detail - it was removed when we changed to our summer schedule - however, having reviewed some analysis/feedback etc I have asked the team to reinstate - this will show in the schedule for Saturday.

Thanks

Possibly, I have currently a list of GOTM in creation which will take us up till December but I can add it to the list for the next round - obv cant gtd it will make it but will certainly add it for consideration.

I am unaware of any issues - Has this resolved itself or are you still having issues?

As confirmed earlier in the thread regarding the 50R - we will look to review this in the new schedule once the summer season ends - no changes will be made before then.
07-22-2015 , 09:50 AM
For a billion $ company its pretty sick that you are flexible like an old granny

I've talked to a lot of people regarding the 50r, and everybody wants it back. There where no one who preferred the 100 RE >50r. So do everyone a favor and bring it back daily +Sa and even on Sundays.

Your stance of "if it ain't broke why fix it" Is total nonsense because currently your schedule is broke as fk. It was so much better last summer than it is now it's crazy. Putting a 1k in a Monday, removing a flourishing 50$ rebuy, removing flourishing rebuys, having the weekly major start later than any of the big weekly majors of competitors, reviving the 50rebuy on Mondays instead of all week long... Etcetc

It's like you guys are being run by infants. And you are selling for 1.4billion. What a terrible idea. Get you sht together party all the above decisions are pure ******ation
07-26-2015 , 08:20 AM
Nicely done again party,

you get the brilliant idea of a survey about the monday highroller without asking the ONLY important question:

DO YOU LIKE THE 1k HIGHROLLER ON MONDAY OR DO YOU PREFER IT ON ANOTHER DAY?

its just mindblowing to me how this question wouldnt be part of any well thought survey (facepalm)
07-26-2015 , 09:04 AM
haha wp

Hi - as stated previously - the poker team are happy with the current performance of the High roller on a Monday and have no plans to move this for the time being.

No idea how you were missed - can you confirm your username and I will check the target lists.
I will post the link to the survey below for those interested in completing the data -

Thanks Colette. You may want to have a word with whoever put the survey together. They've missed a radio button for the "Other" answers, so for example against Q5 I'd like to suggest a different day. I can't use the "Other" text box and proceed with the survey, because only Earlier or Later are valid answers. While it may allow one of those two plus free text, chances are the free text is going to be lost as the answer will be recorded as Earlier or Later.

Noted
Regarding the free text - this cant be lost as its all recorded and provided in the feedback data - all answers are reviewed and the Other option is taken into account.

Thanks
