[OFFICIAL] PokerStars MTT Thread - Page 189 - MTT Poker Strategy

Shady? There is nothing shady about what they are doing. They're just trying to make more money/lose less and keep new players on the site for longer. They may not have communicated some of the changes in the best way possible but it doesn't make those changes shady. It's just simple business.

What they did to the supernovas was extremely shady. I was not a supernova and as such did not have a vested interest in it, but it was as plain as day that that was done with a lack of integrity.

As for the second bolded point there, well, if you don't see that as shady then I guess we have different standards.

I could give more examples but I am not contributing anything here that hasn't been mentioned countless times already so I don't feel the need.

He'll continue his hopeless defence no matter what they do, even if they start confiscating funds

Boycotting Sundays on Stars!

Top prizes dont make a serious recreational like me excited any more.

Top Prize really is what excites you to play, sigh not anymore. Specially if you play 20-30 mtts a day. Winning 1 today and have 2 loosing days and you are in red. Really ? Stars just made grinding multiple tourneys ridiculous with those payouts.

Party I am coming, give me better offerings there.

Me too, and per usual they won't dish out refunds to anyone unless you go out of your way to send in log files and blah blah. It's pretty incredible that they provide us faulty software and then still require us to send them **** to fix it, pretty over this disaster of a company.

it is just one of these shady poker companies. Back in the day there were shady sites and stars. now it's all shady sites. With party/888 being less shady than years ago. But 888 still has a ****load of things to improve.

For those having problem with the Stars client go to:
C --> Program Files --> PokerStars --> Backup. You copy everything from here and paste it back to PokerStars folder.
Then you open the client from this folder(Pokerstars) --> PokerStars.exe
I did this from the last buggy update and don`t have any problem.

how about cutting late reg time is just absurd how long is it

today late ST 320$ 40kG has 3h30min late reg 206 runners(62k prize pool)
it pays 36 spots and till end of late reg there were 58 left, of course there are some smart guys will gona enter last 5 min with 10 BB stack when 1/3 of filed is left and play push shove mode try to run it up, and when you need to like double up 1 time and to have workable stack and play like 9 table SNG for like 13k$ for first place

Of course Amaya isn't interested in what players think. It's all about the rake grab.

Latest mobile phone UK update is terrible as well. I've had so many crashes already where I wrote a message on whatsapp or was browsing on some website and when I wanted to get back to the PS app it simply restarted. Great fun really.

These were the payouts for today's hot 162. Check the payjumps from mincash to 9th place. Thoughts?

Milly re entry A liberty, make it 1 just for now at least. To employ footballers and have no euro promo is a waste of resources too. And myself and I assume many other plo/o8 regs are sick to death of asking for things and being ignored. Bring back the 82s and 215s literally no reason to take them away whatsoever so just replace them as they were. I mean a hyper would be nice too but at least the old ones back for now please!!!

+1
Also the lack of responses by Luke is frustrating. At least tell us in what areas your hands are tied. Ignoring a lot of issues isn't helping anybody.
