chgocubs99 0 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Do you know if it is going to be a regular tournament? Link to post Share on other sites
chgocubs99 0 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 BAH! I cannot stand any tournament with 10 minute levels for any reason...even if the play is fine earlier it just sucks in the middle-late levels, regardless of how many chips you get. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,321 Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 Do you know if it is going to be a regular tournament?Bryan from Stars told me about it.They like to experiment with things and see how players like them. Link to post Share on other sites
sennin 0 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 looks nice except for the 10min levels :(Edit: What I wish they'd add is either a $20 180 with 3k starting stacks or a $20 360 with 3k starting stacks Link to post Share on other sites
Jam-Fly 8 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 $5 for 1500, and $25 for 5000? Doesn't make sense to me tbhwhat about the option of like a double add-on ($5 for 2k, $10 for 4k or summin) Link to post Share on other sites
GWCGWC 83 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I don't like it because of the time it starts. The 10 min levels makes sense if you're going to load every player with a crazy amount of chips. This tourney would last a crazy long time without the accelerated blinds. The $25 add on is a bit much for a $5R. Maybe a $10 addon would be better along with starting at 8:30 ET. I'm sure Stars wants to be able to have a larger $5R guarantee without an overlay. Link to post Share on other sites
kobe2odom8 14 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 u start with 1k not 1500 as stated above Link to post Share on other sites
TravisG 0 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 bob, do you have any opportunity to forward suggestions to the stars guys directly? i think one thing that many player wanted for a long time are super-deepstack (5000 chips, like 20 min levels) or "double-stack" (3000 chips, 10 or 15 minute levels) multi table sitngoes. that would be so awesome. why don't they implement it?

Having said that, naturally we cannot implement everything everyone wants... it's simply not possible.If you've got something you'd like us to consider, by all means please drop us a line at ideas@pokerstars.com. A member of our Poker Room Management Team reviews every single request... we read them all, though naturally we cannot reply to each email received in that box. We not only listen to feedback from our players, we absolutely depend upon it!All the best,Bryan S.Tournaments AdministratorPokerStars Poker Room Management Team Link to post Share on other sites

grocery_mony 8 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Hi Brian. One thing I see as a flaw in pokerstars scghedule is out on the westcoast after 5pmPST there are no mid level($11-$33) tourneys with the 3000 starting chips until 11pm.TYEdit:Also it would be nice if the $11 non-turbo 180 man were in the main tourney lobby. In primetime it still takes an hour to fill one. Link to post Share on other sites
