Good job ScamStars. Finally I can move the rest of my ScamStars schedule to other sites.

20% paid , 12-15% rake , tourneys are flatter than emma watson ....

time to move remaining volume to other sites

so ridiculous to keep 11$ buy ins to make it look like it's still 10+1

Hypers anyone?

8.29+0.59 for 8.88 Saturday Spider (8.46+0.42 before)
1.10 for 1+0.10 (1.05+0.5 before)


grrrrreat.

See this is the problem, I think you should be free to charge whatever rake you want, but changing it from 10+1 to 9.80+1.20 instead of 10+1.20 is downright scummy. Especially because the rake isn't in the main header of the lobby anymore. This also directly contradicts their supposed rec-friendly approach. Also, hilariously, 9.80+1.20 is now more rake than 9+1 which it is on regulated sites like .fr where they pay more taxes. There's just no excuse or any kind of redeeming factor to this that I can see.

I didn't play much on stars recently anyway, but I will now symbolically cash out and boycott their tournaments. Maybe games are tougher on party and my ROI lower, but whatever, at least I won't feel like the company is trying to suck every last $ out of me.

While checking if I had anything else of value on my account I discovered that apparently all my useless freeroll mtt tickets from the useless chests have expired. Great, even the ****tiest thing from party has been copied. I'm also stuck with 7.71$ worth of starscoin that I can't convert to cash. Painful.

I was wondering how bounty tourneys will be raked. The additional rake is coming from the price pool money and the bounty value remains the same...

There is Sunday Million Anniversary 10kk GTD that on the site it is written that it is on 02.04, but in the client, is on 22.04.

Either they are stupid or purposely killing pokerstars.

I bet on the former

Well I receive an email and it is on 22.04. It looks like that the banner redirected me to the last year edition.

Even increasing the Rake of 11$ Rebuy MTTs? Come on stars, these arent sub 22$ MTTs at all effectively.

I would like to get the 10K Payday back .... missing it.

It's so good actually. Extra layer of protection for recs.

Everybody needs to charge what they think is fair. No complaining.
But just for reference, I am playing 888 now for 10.9 + 1.1 w overlay.
Is better for me. Don't all join. I like overlay.

SCOOP dates please!

Scroll up. They've been given a while ago. I think it was May 4th to 26th or something like that.

Does this mean the 180/45s etc are getting a rake increase as well?

$2.50s are $2.28 + $0.22 still

Maybe we should be quiet about that.

Hi Luke

very good that the 7$ 45s / 8$ 180s sngs have been merged to a 7$ on-demand
the psko on-demand 30$ run quiet frequently, have you considered adding 60$? Would be very nice!

thanks

Lol you guys nice job noticing this!

really hope the 45 and 180 mans do not get rake increase as the win rates are very small on these

One step at a time. They dont want to ruffle too many feathers at once.




Pokerstars doesn't care about the players and Dnegs is a douche bag. Lying thru his ***** teeth, selling you out acting like its a good thing, for a paycheck.

When stars cut SNE, you saw Dnegs back-peddle on Joeys podcast. "They handled it poorly" "Good things are coming, trust me." "Huge news, cant go into details now. Im really excited" etc... and what happened? Nothing

Now, Dnegs has been back-peddling so far that hes up against a wall with nowhere to go but attack. "**** the pros" he says. Higher rake is good, he says. Hes genuinely trying to spin this move as a positive because they reduced Timed Tourney rake.

The guy is a politician now. I dont believe anything he says. A true POS shill at this point

I quit playing almost a year ago but it still makes me upset to hear these things

Just checked the Hot 5.5 - is now 4.9 + 60 cents -- easy money 10 cents x 3000+ players
Most players would not know the difference and pay the same 5.5 as usual.

What shocks me is that they make these ridiculous rake increases but then make the 45m/180mans merge into a $7 game when they could have merged it into an $8 to increase rake and probably make more players happier in the process!

Luke I have banned myself from playing MTTS on stars because of these rake increases. I am moving even more of my play of your site. If rake increases at SNGS then ill be completely done with your site, especially with how low win rates already are at SNGS now

why is there almost no events before 19 CET @ .es scoop? I mean the milly on .eu is starting the same in years and that's 14 ET for the previous primezone. Nobody playing poker in the afternoon anymore?

also, 18€+2€ for a hyper... seriously?

Why isn't the SCOOP schedule announced yet?

Last year the final schedule was posted on March 7th, the first version even earlier (https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/s...&postcount=189)

When is it going to be public this year?
