Why is it, that for a while now you offer MTT structures where the 24th down to the 9th earn the same money in Spain? The pay jumps were like 0.5% buyins. That is extremely ridiculous if a pay jump is not even half a buyin. It turns the tournaments into LOL donkaments. Do you want players to pause until next year when you are done with the Italy, Spain, Portugal and France merger? I like top heavy structures but not like that.

luke, it might help to post in here more than once every two months.

What are the plans with:

payouts (everyone is complaining and you didnt say a single word on that topic)
daily schedule
midstakes series
promotions (KO week, double vision sundays, big/bigger/biggest/hot/hotter/hottest weeks)
guarantee increases after wcoop (why not promote certain tournament types, like double rebuy guarantees this week and double "big" tourneys the next one etc)

come on

Granted there's still an hour and a half of late registration left, but it just makes me sad to check out the Sunday Million lobby and see $135k up top.

There have been reports in the last few weeks that Pokerstars would limit the number of live tournament packages players can win to one package per player. Is this rule in place? It does not seem so, since if it was, some players would have been negatively freerolling themselves in the Ultra sattelite last night.

I thought Pokerstars announced this themselves (although now I cannot find any official statement).

So, official statement:

https://www.pokerstars.com/en/blog/2...s-167859.shtml

This would mean, that for example the player JopperHarryN in fact did not cash in the Ultra sattelite last night, because he had already won a package before (he had been on the list of qualifiers before this tournament ended).

What tournaments are you talking about? Mid-highstake guarantees at Stars have gone up 15-30% past 2 months. Nothing special though, happens after every summer.

Thats why so many people left this place. Most of the time there are only 50k players online, a bit over 100k at primetime.

tbh the only legit reason for posting that sparingly at this time would be that you work your ass off in order to set up a midstakes series in the upcoming 3 months. being the dreamer that i am , i will just assume this

Where is the old stars that ran promotions and special weeks? Like Knockout week, big celebrations of special things like xxx tourney and such.. It was the days when they celebrated the 100 billionth hand and 1 billionth tournament etc.. Now they just use the money for dumb **** like power up and such.. And i miss the good old days with the 3.30 rebuy 10k gtd and the cube tournaments.. Which i won 3 times..Stars has gone down hill so much since Amaya took over and it is quite sad since i do miss stars as it used to be... The one who it felt like they cared about there customers and such.. Without ****ty payout tables,rakes and such..I bet stars doesnt even care if they loose customers aslong as they have tons of rake to get from there customers who stays because i doubt this can last with the way the company is going.. I am not a high stakes grinder or whatnot but still i do miss the old stars which didnt have leaderboards for casino and such..Who just cared abot bringing good poker client to the customers and who had good tournaments and cashgames which i could punt of in and have a blast..Not this dumb **** the company has turned into.. I am sad to say but i am thinking of bringing my play to either 888 or party since atleast they care more about there customers than Stars is doing.

I dont think they ever care about this thread.For me rakeback is gone okay but i dont get any promotion ever now.No leaderboards,no specials-nothing.SNG MTT is with very ,very bad traffic due big rake,no rakeback and leaving of some markets.It would not be bad to make some more kinds of micro-mid stakes sng like example 1+1PKO+0.20 Turbo 6max 120man or 180 man and etc .And start some promotion or leaderboard for them,now we dont have rakeback so u have more money and also u will rake more money.Also i doesnt see a change in middle-micro stakes MTT tournaments schedule,not too much tournaments to play,u dont like to rake more or what.... im not gonna play spins if u reduce tournaments....Also all freerolls are gone and no 1 million freerool this year WTF im amazed how greedy is this corporation...

When the changes are set in stone and a date has been decided, I'll post exhaustive notes outlining the changes and will then answer questions you may have.
Today is the 19th. Should we start to worry that the changes will be a massive ****up and they want to keep the time for questions before implementation as short as possible?

You can safely bet your house the changes will increase rake in one way or another.

I think when people keep repeating that the rake will increase, they will really increase it because it looks like we are ready for this and it's ok for us.
