So tournaments take a little over an hour to finish instead of 1 hour and half +. Would be nice if SBR did this for next series and the future. Much better to have these finish quicker and helps more people have a chance at winning anyway.

SBR pumped up the points and number of tourneys.
No complaining on this.
Be grateful for what the Lord has blessed us with.

I don't get it
If the idea of these new better paying tournys was to drive new players to the poker room and bring back some that haven't
played in a while.....Why reduce the blind times lol that takes away from the game of poker itself (well maybe not SBR) When I go to
play a live tourny blinds are very important.
You have these guys putting in huge hrs to play every tourny.....YOU WANT NEW PLAYERS? Limit it to 1 or 2 tournys a day for every
player. Whats the sense of the same 40 or 50 guys playing every tourny and now making it Russian Roulette. This of course won't be
popular here but with real poker players it would beNomination(s):This post was nominated 1 time . To view the nominated thread please click here. People who nominated: silvap

Who wants to play over an hour for a tournament that payouts points that you than have to play even longer to rollover. Makes no sense to have these games taking so long. I also like the new rule that you can play in more than 1 tournament a day. Gives you a chance to come away with something much easier now each day. The only people this is hurting are people who are playing in only 1 tournament a day and now have to play in a tournament with a bigger field. I say keep this rule for the future and just lower the blind levels. There is hardly any room to play anyway after the first few blind levels if you don't accumulate chips early on. Plenty of skill still left as you can see the same players keep cashing more each week on average.

personally i would keep it how it is now
buy in 5 times a day is better than 1 a day and a bingofest at the end
if they lost a few minutes a level, then even better
-
03-05-21 08:34 PM #11
I would just reduce the starting stack to 1000
-
03-05-21 08:43 PM #12
Maybe you guys could play a couple less daily tournaments? That would surely save time from your busy schedules.
penetrating hysterical you guys complaining to speed the action up but still willing to sit on your ass 10 hours every day hoping to clear $20 in betpoints

I only started playing more because the prizes were moved up to a point to make it worth playing again. I just don't get why people want to extend the games but increasing the blind levels. 5 min blinds are fine. That extra 3 mins a level is not helping your game much at all. Your just wasting your time playing more. Id imagine the lower the blind levels the more people would play. People don't want to waste their time playing for so little. Originally Posted by boscokid

Bottom line if the blinds move faster it takes away from poker Originally Posted by bonzaii

reduced blinds lead to less poker less REAL players right Boneseye
An zero shock Yourhiney wants reduced blind times

I'll suggest the 6 mins clock for next month.

1000 point it very nice.for march madness.but it a bitch to rollover 3000 hand .i waited sometime 3 hr before someone show up . just give the point and no rollover.

If you want to stimulate daily play (especially at the hold'em tables), I would suggest bringing BigBlue back! Don't recall seeing the hold'em tables anywhere near as busy as they were during that week or two when he reappeared a couple years ago!

Whether omaha tables are available or not, there's hardly any action on the NLH tables. It seems like having the omaha tables always available would stimulate the ring table action. Originally Posted by Optional

I also vote for blind levels to be faster, 5-6 minutes as OP suggested sounds good.

But I might throw in the suggestion that funding a couple of people to play like that could be another way to get poker moving.
We need at least 100 new regulars before we can get some traction to move forward I think.

I would either scrap Omaha high low all together or just have it available everyday to make games open everyday. Some players refuse to play h/l and many refuse to play holdem. If you keep it as it is your going to have limited action Monday through Thursday since players just wait till Friday to play high low.
-
03-07-21 04:41 PM #27
Well if you scraped Omaha high low that would force people to play holdem but I’d rather see SBR make Omaha high low available everyday since that’s what most people like to play anyway. Originally Posted by JAKEPEAVY21

if anything need to change is the short handed tables. 9 player tables better. Maybe reduce it to 6 min levels

I like it now, but if not for the rollover factor, not sure I would have ever bothered to learn enough to keep some points.
I suspect no holdem ring game play, which everyone knows how to play, is one reason we don't attract many new players.

Yes, i think most enjoy it. NLH can get boring after awhile. Originally Posted by Optional

I would pick omaha every time. Nlh is boring. Check check check, call, fold. I like seeing the chips fly. Bring back omaha on a daily. Nlh players are a dying breed. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that here.

O8 is a great game but many here simply cannot grasp the concept of being the favorite to win without a made hand; so they make the minimum with their monster wrap draws and lose the maximum with AAK9 and blame it on bad luck. #sad!
If SBR truly wants to encourage mad action make Poker Points expire every Sunday night at midnite, if you don't play them they disappear. Then alternate weeks of game availability, one weekend nothing but Hold Em, the next only Omaha High, the next only Omaha Hi/Lo.
Lol - after that then get software that supports Badugi, 2-7 Triple Draw and Razz
