I really appreciate the length of day 1. I'm not having the greatest year and my playing frequence has decreased lately (even skipped 3-4 sundays in march for like first time in 10 years) however seeing yesterday, today and on thursday great tournaments at 19:00 in my buyin range ending at 3:00-3:30CET was really refreshing. I busted shortly before day 1 concluded and went to bed and now at work without much problem. Regular sunday tournaments are still mostly way too long, payout structures suck so it's nice to have a positive experience for a change.

Looking for an answer here as difficult to find information on the pokerstars site. I want to play some phase 1's for Scoop 1(H), however I am based in the UK (play on pokerstarsUK) and will be in Malta for the date of the next phase. Will I be able to access my account and play from there should I make it through?

Replayer is buggy in HORSE/8-game. When you go to holdem and want to see previous hand and it was STUD game it shows only 2 cards in the replayer.

Some of the payouts (non-pko) in SCOOP are pretty bad. Play for 8 hours and not even make 5x buyin

Hey Luke,

Any reason why the only reg speed satellite, besides the Mega, to the 19 CET events start at 1838 and consistently finish after the late reg for the target tournament is closed?

It's on a short notice, but those might work better if moved an hour, maybe even an hour and 15min earlier
Participation doesn't seem to be an issue and people who play them might actually get into the target

There is a planned server restart of the PokerStars client at 07:00 ET Thursday, May 10, 2018. This restart is scheduled to last for about 30 minutes. Due to the nature of this restart, you may experience some lag during the login process if you log in within 10-15 minutes of the restart; the games themselves will not be affected by this.

The regular tournament schedule is affected for twelve or more hours before the planned time of restart. Scheduled tournaments are planned to restart at about 08:30 ET.

Sit & Go regeneration for individual tournament types is turned off between 02:00 ET and 06:30 ET depending on the average completion time of each. Sit & Go Tournaments are planned to restart about fifteen to thirty minutes after the server restart completes.

not too helpful to receive the e-mail 2 hours prior but since people complained here last time I figured I'd post it anyway.

There was a banner in the lobby saying may 3rd all day yesterday. It’s a start.

Instead, you get like 8 satellites the day the tournament runs. I'm sure there are many people who would like to play events and would be willing to play more satties, but aren't home that early that day or play them and don't satty in and don't get more opportunities.

When Stars killed their satellites, they killed the tournament series aswell.
I have steered away from Satellites on all sites in the ast but grew interest in them for the festivals... but then Stars upped the rake on all $16.50 games and below, including satellites so i wont be bothering with them on Stars... Its really ****ing stupid to not just shaft your players with rake increases but to non-inadvertently shaft yourself by making your major events less prosperous because of the same rake increases

Wow upcoming Sunday is super super underwhelming, wtf? Every year we have had 2 2100's 2 215's and the kickoff. Now instead we have a $530 $55? This can't be right... Please fix it before Sunday Luke

The schedule has been announced a long time ago. Do you really think your belated comments are gonna chance anything?

The main events deserve a lot more satellites to make them bigger & give them the special treatment that they deserve. 6 satellites to the $10k main is a joke, adding more satellites would be best for all the parties involved imo.

You must have a lot of free time on your hands my dear! Share some of that with me please and yes in the past they made last minute changes when something has been extremely off like this.

Nothing is 'extremely off'

1*$215
2*$530
1*1050
1*2100

Looks like a normal Series Sunday to me, and if definitely not 'extreme'.

If anyone has too much time it's you, requesting such pointless last-minute changes.

Don't worry I'm sure Luke has plans for another High Roller Series very soon. You will get your $2100s there.

+1
There's still time to throw in some satties to all of Sunday's tournaments. Neither one of them has anything scheduled besides the one on the day. Let them start running tomorrow, with low gtd seats - they will fill in for sure - for all buy-in levels

Very funny tourney is that 5 card NLO, had a lot of fun playing it. It is nice that it is turbo and late on the day. A lot of people get it in with a lot of hands pre flop, therefore I think that it should be PKO and/or zoom as it was previous years if I am not wrong.

And this 6max shootout tourney was a lot of fun and in my mind if I manage to win 4/5/6 SNG on after another, I can win a lot. I think that previous years I wrote that this tourney can be at least weekly in the normal schedule.

Indeed, shootouts are nice. I would love a 22$ shootout on Friday evening.

PSKO shootouts should replace the Fast Fridays. PSKO would work good in a shootout so you can make some $ without winning your table.
