    I'm loving the series and I really think Merge should increase all guarantees during Maximus. The turn out for these are great and it shows if you give us good guarantees we will fill them. It's time to raise all guarantees imo.

    Make the midweek monster a perm staple, just replace the $60 6K at 20:00 a daily 20K. Make the 11r at 19:00 a 10K. Make the 109c 8K at 18:00 a 109 freezeout and slap a 15K guarantee on it. I'd also love to see something at all worth playing in the day. Instead of the 33 2r1a 7K just make it a 33 freezeout and slap a 10K on it. Give these a test run during Maximus, and watch them fill everyday then make them perm.

    -------

    They are listening, speak up! Cross posted from 2p2:

    Firstly, with the increase in player numbers, we will be raising guarantees where we see necessary. Events such as the Daily High Roller, Midweek Monster and various other daily guarantees are the tournaments in mention.

    Secondly, we would like to announce that the following tournaments will be added to the daily schedule. Please note these guarantees are a starting point, they will be raised if necessary also.

    - $20,000 Daily $109 NLH Freezeout at 17.00 (This event will commence on Tuesday 13th March, after Poker Maximus Event 27 runs on Monday 12th)

    Lastly, we will be releasing increased guarantees for the Poker Maximus series, which to date has been a huge success.

    There will be further changes as always coming in the near future.

    And for the love of God can we get some observer chat for the rail? Doesn't feel like online poker without it... Otherwise, great series so far.... I'm really impressed with the turnouts thus far.

    im ok with the 1 hour difference, the reason i think its unplayable is theres 1 mtt where i can win 1k. its just depressing and not worth the time

    Are you talking about low stakes mark because I can think of 20 tourneys where you can win 1k on there

    Please to save our sanity fix the damn rebuy bull s***. Also observer chat one time and a hand history re-player that is useful would be nice. And most of the stuff others said.
