I forgot about the rake Still doesn't change the issue though, if another two players had joined the payouts would have been the same but the prize pool would be bigger.

So if 27 people sign up 3.60*27 = 97.20 euros. Is the prize pool still 80 euros and the other 17.20 disappears as extra rake or do they have a bubble prize?

That's what I'm trying to confirm. No bubble prize showed last night.

Can you fix the sitout / I'm back button situation for mtts.

When you time out the I'm back button doesn't appear on screen until the next hand. And if you're playing many tables / your software is lagging this happens a lot since your timebank also doesn't start automatically. Also quite often the appearance of the I'm back button also lags and it only appears on screen like 5 seconds into the NEXT hand. You should obviously be able to sit back in whenever you want. Now if you time out, you're auto sitting out next hand as well if you're in the early positions as your hand is mucked before you are given a chance to sit back in. I've lost count how many times I've watched myself fold KK+ because of this.

And please don't say "we won't fix this because only multitablers sit out", your software issues cause this a lot too.

We are discussing a few things regarding MTT series and will let you guys know when things are finalized. The “flipaments” feature was something that was decided some time ago and got there with the latest release.

Yes this is something that we have in our minds indeed.
1. I agree, it gives you this option by default which could be confusing. Will report it.
2. At the moment we will not chance it, but we will look into it when the tournament grows.
3. I think it is pretty usual to run tournaments around that time on a Sunday. There is also late registration and other people have duties earlier on or don’t want to go to bed too late. There is no such thing as a perfect time.
Thanks for your feedback. Gladly Bounties are back. We don’t have the functionality in place to run phase/ 2day tournaments/ shootouts from our end at the moment.
The tournament creates prizes of €20 in cash and all extra money that doesn’t reach €20 will create bubble prizes similar to the buy-in amount or less.
On the 30th of May:
€2 Step-it-up €80 had 35 players. 35 x 1.80 = €63
€2 Step-it-up €80 had 22 players. 22 x 3.60 = €79.20

Thanks Chuck I will fwd your feedback.

Maybe make that Late Night Fifty into a Late Night Twenty-Five with the 8 minute structure instead of 9?

Could help it to run if you also put a 10euro turbo along side it. Both will start at 3CET which is the start of MTT dead period (offpeak). Could add a 4 turbo 30 minutes later to buff late reg period. You actually have one 1h30m after but its too long I think and no GTD.

I had some very confusing times at final tables today.

First I was dealt this hand:



(I ran out of timebank before I could screenshot it, but yes it looked like that also when the hand was live)

Then some time later at a different final table I was seated here and my stack disappeared:

From 9th of June:
Remove the Nightly Fifty and add
€100 GTD Nightly Ten Turbo -Daily: 03:00 CEST € 10.00
€150 GTD Nightly Twenty Five (8mins blinds) - Daily: 03:00 CEST € 25.00
€80 GTD Nightly Four Multi Turbo - Daily: 03:30 CEST € 4.00

Thanks for this, I have reported it.

Looks good and thankyou.

you actually posted your problem there;
play less tables/buy a faster pc/wait for a better client

imo you just play to many tables for the setup (could be the client, not saying you or your pc isslow) but if you play less tables, there is no lag, so you dont timeout that often....since you lost count how many times you folded KK+ (whiich is a prettty rare starting hand) i know you play to much tables to handle

i agree with the UTG never being able to click i am back cause the button either dissapears to fast or doesn't show at all

@Robin, i think the 18 mans have a bad starting time......why start a game at 55 minutes past the hour to play 3 minutes then to have a 2 minute break, can't you start them at 0 minutes past hour.....it would be much better imo

second thing, can you set the butler tourneys so they show in the lobby for a while even after their finished, because of the 100€ first prize in the league the ÍCM is really weird when you go deep in a few of them, we should be able to check what our standings and that of our oponents are so we can play accordingly

third thing, not rly mtt related, but more of a bug, when we use table priority (or something like that) and we are UTG, when the hand is dealt it will prioritize that table.....but because of the animations and stuff it can actually take a few seconds before the action really is on you. but other tables are parked behind the prioritized table untill you clicked the priority table even if on the other tables actions is on you it will park them because the start of hand when UTG is when the dealing starts, on the other tables it is actaully when the action is on you

if you have multiple utg situations like that it can take upwards of 50% of the time we have to make a decision on the normal tables.... i hope you understand, else i prob can cut one of my streams in pieces to show what i mean

this might a reason why chuck is getting a few of his lag/time-out issues

thanks as always

Good points:

- changed the times of the 18 mans;
- in the future the butler league will be visible 7 days after start;
- UTG issue is reported and looked into

Just to let you know, we've got a one off €10 tournament with €2000 added money on top tonight at 23:00 CEST.
€2000 Added - Euro Football

That euro football is a nice promotion tournament, thumbs up. I think in general this is a slot where you should add something with a two-figure buyin. The tenner at 10PM CEST often doesn't run (weird how it doesn't, maybe it's because of the unattractive guarantee, but feels like something should easily be working out in that timeslot with lots of people playing?), so almost every day I'm regging the stuff at 9-9:30PM, and all of a sudden there's nothing else left but 1table satellites (basically sngs) and the turbo stuff around midnight. I don't know how to fix this, but I feel like this spot, around 10-11PM, is really suffering from not having one proper NLHE tournament with a 10-25€ buyin running. It's still almost peak period and I can't see how some regular NLHE tournament wouldn't attract 40-50 players easily with a proper guarantee?

Another spot is around 5-6PM CEST. I usually start at 5:30PM and there's absolutely nothing running besides sometimes the early Omaha. This is probably much harder to solve since there are less people playing, but it would be great if you could get something in there around 5PM.

edit: I have stuff with buyins of less than 10€ filtered out, I'm sure there's smaller stuff obviously


Re: sitout issues, yeah I probably do play too many tables, no question. But it doesn't change the main issue which is that you can't sit back immediately. This just shouldn't be happening, it's very stupid that the "I'm back" button doesn't pop up until the next hand and there's not reason no to fix this asap.

I agree, I think that timeslot should be able to get a lot of players but like you say it is probably due to the low GTD. I think the tenner would have like 66€ 1st prize or something which is not very enticing towards the end of the day. I think the later games being 8 minute structure instead of 9 minute may help a bit too. The 11:30 CET "Turbo Multibuy" is popular and often clears its GTD by quite a bit.

It is strange how some of the 10€ MTTs don't get players because even the "Daily 25" has been consistently getting 40+ players (1k+ GTD though). The "Daily 10" and "The Tenner" should be popular MTTs because they are straight forward freezeouts. I said a while back that you should maybe change the "Daily 10" to a multibuy like the "Daily 4" and up the GTD.

I think it also depends what tourneys run simultaneously to one another. If you buff slow tourneys with faster ones then maybe they become more popular because people can open multiple games but gotta work out what the best combos are.

That period between 9:30PM and 11:30PM is mostly sats and micro tourneys. If you can figure out a way to buff "The Tenner". Sometimes it is just something simple like a name change (super tenner bonanza crazy fest 1K GTD ) . We know there are players online. It would help the sats around that period too because people want to play that 1K GTD.

About the half-time/full-time euro tournaments:

They don't start in the client till tomorrow as per the T&C but the page also says "We will be running two exclusive tournaments each day there are Euro Championship matches taking place this summer, "

The description for every tournament - i.e. on future days too - says "place a bet on Euro ..... on the day the tournament starts" - that sounds like the day the football tournament starts rather than the day of the poker tournament.

The .com page uses BST when you normally use CEST on that page.

Great feedback guys, we will look into this slot and try something different soon!

Regarding the content about the euro football freeroll promo, I agree it could have been clearer about when and what was kicking off the promotion. I've reported the usage of BST on .com and it has been amended. Thanks!

About the full time freeroll. My local instructions say: "Place a bet of €5 or more on Euro Championship matches between 20:00 and 22:30 that day". So if I understood correctly (thanks LektorAJ), I have to bet during the match, right? And I get a ticket to a tourny which is running already (with reg open for 30min after start time)? Or can I use that ticket for a later tourny?

I was confused cos I wasn't getting a ticket for betting 15min before the game Saturday and Sunday but I see why now. But I still don't understand those times 20:00-22:30... Why so long time frame? And what times those are, are they my local (in my time the late matches start at 22:00 so that's why I thought I could bet before the match) ?

Alias is "gahanka" if needed for anything.

Bet during the game and get a ticket for the freeroll that starts after the game. Bet before the game for a freeroll flip ticket that happens at half time in the game.

Times are probably in case any of the knockout games go to ET or pens.

Oh, thanks. Times are hard lol. The freeroll starts AFTER the game. That's what I didn't get.

I say give this man a couple of freeroll tickets if he placed the bets after 20:00 CEST.

I'm English living in Europe so I noticed the use of BST and understood what it meant for my timezone but I don't see why everyone should be expected to.

Thanks, no need for the missed tickets though since I'll likely bet every night anyway, just gonna make them live bets now if I'm gonna play poker. Just needed the clarification.

They don't need to be live bets, you also get a ticket if you bet during that time window on a Euro 2016 match for the following day.

Usually we don't display BST on local pages. Either local times or CEST . I will make sure they change that. Thanks for letting us know.

I can confirm that the bet doesn't have to be a live bet in the particular time frames. However we chose the time frames to cover live betters as well.

Just seen the new Ten-X games in the schedule. Nice name and timings. Hopefully will be successful, going to play them tonight.

Small thing, the turbo one is Ten-x instead of Ten-X .

Could you add a 5e Saturday Stack Pre Qualifier on a Saturday?

15:30 CET looks like it would be a good time.

I have some 5e tickets and never seem to be able to use them because the sat is so rare.

Thankyou

I've got to thank you for pointing out what you felt was missing there and what could work there.

I have added a qualifier at 15:30 UTC on the Saturday. These qualifiers last less than 45 minutes. The €25 qualifier starts at 16:35 UTC. Do we agree it is better when those are close together?
