im not someone who really follows any sports in general so i didnt know that but, do you really think that about a 50% decline is just because of it? doubtful.
say the year by year decline is 10% ( hypothetical figure here as i dont know how much its been declining year by year, im a rec who actually started in jan 2014 so i literally joined just in time to see the titanic sink ) lets be generous and say the whole euros thing is another 20% it could actually be more could actually be way less to be honest i dont know.
wheres the other 200 people?
where did that 20000 in the prize pool decide to go to?
i think its safe to say at this point every single implication since the new schedule in april has been a colossal failure if you look at prize pools across the site. Sure whats left of the guarantees are being met but its a far cry of what it was even a very short time ago.
Sunday Million is barely scraping by and has now been tarnished
Sunday storm is now barely scraping by with a guarantee thats lost a third in pretty much the last 2 months. yes that one was switching between 300 and 275k but it was 300 more often then not.
the sunday grand which was the sunday 500's replacement....apparently.....double the buy in smaller guarantee.
warm up is down to 250k,
even on the micro side its going down look at the hot11, thats 20k during the week now. i could be remembering wrong but didnt that used to have the same weekday GT as the B11?
are the bounty builders even growing anymore? for a while there weren't some of the micro/low ones actually capping on sundays? whens the last time that happened probably not since any of these changes.
yeah maybe these are ****ty examples but i dont play a huge amount so i cant remember off the top of my head what everything is/was/usually is this time of year. However more then a few people are saying these lows are unprecedented to say the least.
you have been getting pretty much nothing but almost unanimous complaints from almost everyone who still bothers to post here. people not being able to grind much volume compared to before, the ****ing abysmal pay tables, i might be able to remember MAYBE one or two partially positive remarks about the non holdem schedule, people not getting any excitement and consistently skipping sundays now like jesus christ.
one more thing i want to ask about luke is what about micro millions?
We are now getting within 3 weeks of when you said it would be held. all we know is that "its gonna look different then what were used to"...........considering all the complaints we don't exactly have a whole lot of faith right now and would like some details so we can maybe give some goddamn feedback. look at WCOOP already having its own thread how many MONTHS before its actually gonna happen.
boy oh boy if we get some super gimmicky **** fest with only a few freezeouts the whole series and a reentry main event i wont be to impressed. At least use a decent paytable for the damn series if nothing else.
