November 1st Changes

On Sunday, November 1st at midnight, the Sit n Go tournament prizes will change as follows:

1st – 70%
2nd – 30%

There will also be a 5% point rake to match the other tables.

Obviously, this will make it much more difficult to win credits, and will give an advantage to the currently leaders with large balances. Starting November 1st, the leaderboard will default to show monthly winnings. The lifetime leaderboard will still be available. Balances will not change at this time.

    Hey i had a suggestion if its at all possible:

    Is it possible to make tables have even larger buy-ins??(except the tournament tables of course…) for example have 1/2 million buy-ins?? I was just thinking that this way people will be more into playing some ordinary poker as the risks would be greater… Thereby maybe avoiding just senseless all in pre-flop bets…(some of which are truly stupid!! Ask around and ull get a gud idea!!)

    If its not possible i dont mind but i just thought it wud be more interesting…

    (Not to mention itll make the senseless betters broke in a week!! lol)

    Hi Ryan,
    Great to see changes made to improve the site. I would like to highlight the tourney payout issue to you. As long as the total payout for tourney is greater than the buy-in amount, the chips of players sitting in tourney table will continue to grow. The only way to change the present situation and capped the chips circulating in the site is to make the total payout lesser than the total buy-in amount. The tourney table at present is like a big ATM machine for many players to cash in from. If the situation is left unattended, I dare say the site will soon be a joke with players just playing “bingo” instead of poker(which is exactly what many players are doing right now) at the tourney tables.

    Do drop me an email as I have some suggestions that may help you improve the site. I really hate to see this wonderful go to waste cos I really enjoy the company and playing poker with many nice players I got to know here.

    Cheers,
    TOUGH
