Sit And Go's

[future2112]

first... the multi sng's are a waste of time! second... does anyone know of some one who has progressed in the specials to the effect of winning something? and lastly.. why was the structure changed?... no one seems to play sngs anymore. Why? for me peeps like, who enjoy sngs, are now finding it very boring to have to wait ages to get a game!

mods... whoever.. please try and make it more attractive to ALL types of players like myself.

fut.

changing the structure's would have been a network decision, i presume to try new things to see if it increased traffic on them.

i'd expect it will be constantly reviewed, especially if infact as you say that now infact less players are using them

[future2112]

well it defo is the case... 200ish tables available and, at the mo, 800 is players. for me that doesnt make a very attractive site to play, unless yr a serious player joining high end tables.

edit: just need to edit my first post... when i said specials.. i ment the steps.

yeah i agree, usually at my time 6pm - 11pm i played sng's on and off and usually never took more than 5 minutes to fill from scratch......now it's a joke i joined a sng with 2 already registered, 30 mins later still us 3 i de-registered then 30 mins later noticed the same sng with the same 2 players registered
poopy

well that just sums it up, that sort of wait is indicative of any sort of site losing regular members. who in their right mind would wait 30 mins for a 10 cent poker game. even me being a brit wouldnt wait that long even if i was waiting for a bus... and you knows what we brits are like when come to waiting for a bus...we wait for ages like donks... ohhhh, wait! here comes one...shite its number 42 and not my bus pleease

I like the variety of sngs now offered. But i think the problem is alot of people think the doubleups are gone or just cant find the sngs their looking for amongst so many different games. And yes i doubt any of the multitable sngs will ever fill although i like the idea. It too is a dominoe effect as a few people complain or cant find sngs and every 1 else reads the comments and quits trying to fill them aswell. This is what happened to our freechip sngs. Everybody thinks it will take to long to fill so they dont join. If everybody thinks like this they surely wont ever fill!

the real point is the fackt the prizes r poopy,,,,,not worth the hassle its all went 2 the money side..n were all sick of it. tourdy r like bingo heavin no 1 cares cos when u play 4 2 hours n ur prize in chips is 4k to 30k . its changed 4 the worse...i am still hopin it gets better... but hav bin lookin round 4 new site..

[BBOB]

thats what i keep hearing. But seems to me the prize pool is what it is. You shouldnt win more than whats in the prize pool. So how are the prizes poopy i dont get it. Whatever is in the prize pool is it in any poker game and it works exacltly the same on cash side. Whats the problem??????? and when i play on the free side im playing for bragging rites if u will not the prizes. Id still play the Op66 tourneys if their was no prize pool. But prize pools and payouts work the same on cash and play side

[rolyoc]

When i play the free side i play to get a medal and my name at the top of the screen as bbob says bragging rights.

The mtt will never fit because of the amount of traffic is too low i play other sites where traffic is much higher and it still takes ages.

Double ups are taking ages to fill as people are finding then hard to find whith them being moved couldnt box be re named from specials to double ups??

As for changes changes happen all the time it just a way to increase traffic but i do agree with everyone else some times it doesnt work, so why dont they put them back and try something else i.e 500k,1 mill garanteed tourneys back for free side and pp freerolls for cash side this would tempt players to play the cash side again and help to get players credits on the free side.

Any1 agree?

[reaper1569]

thats all i play 4 medals now n 2 see friends ...prize pools r poor yeah .. but thats was gd abwt old site .. if u were low n went in 2 a tourdy n wonn. it was great boost 2 u and ur chips ..like mill garenteed 500k garenteed ..sumthing needs 2 b done 4 new cumers n more ensentive.. n bigger sit ngoes wi better prizes.

Hi Future,
Completely agreeabout the multi-table sin n go's, who on earth thought this would bea success - just join a multi table tournament if that's what you want.
I only play the s&g double ups, £2,£3 & $5, which are probably the most popular as there isn't too much waiting between 8pm and 11pm British time.

Finally I came 2nd at step 4 on the WSOP step game and won $65 - initial cost 9cents.

[stevo_58]

I agree with most of what has been said. I know it makes sense to try new things, but if they don't work and the old things did, i.e. 1 mil, 500K tourneys etc, then why not switch back to those? Well done Capt'n on 2nd in step 4. I've had a step 2 tickets now for ages, and can't use it cos the table hardly ever filled up, but now there are no WSOP step games listed!

I'll admit I'm one of the ones who looks at the sit n go's and will reg and wait, but if it's not filling I leave. It may not be a fair comparison but there are other sites I play where you have virtually no waiting time to get a game, as it was on OP ages back. So why would someone wait 30, 60, 120, 240 mins or more to get a game here, when they can get a game as soon as the site loads elsewhere.
