    I say stars gives us a monthly 2 day tournament with 25 minute levels, $2500 buyin 2 million guaranteed with a 15000 or a 20000 starting stack depending on how nice they want to be. I have some other ideas for tournaments but this sounds like a really good start. Please sign away guys! I'll forward to stars when the time is right.

    I would love to see more mid stakes turbos during the week. Like maybe between 7-9pm est have a 20,30,50, 100 turbo. Right now the 100 turbo at 8:30 est is great, I'd like to see others along with it though. Working 50+ hours leaves me unmotivated for anything other than turbos during the week, I'm sure others are in the same boat.

    I guess your talking high stakes here but in my opinion stars low to mid stakes is inferior to FT. Those silly 60/90 they have with the 12/180 and 22/180 never fill. Get rid of those and they could add $20, $50 to $100 FO's with decent guarantees and those babies would fill like crazy.

    Satrs has nothing decent between 5 and 6pm either.

    think 2.5k seems a bit too much. I would rather have a weakly 1-1.5 k, 2 days event, with wcoop structure. Think with some decent satelites it would attract more fish and not only the ballers... And why not once a month a 2.5k event in adition:)...

    And agree with gags for fixing the 100 rbuy structure plzzzzzzz

    lets fix the time bank first pleaseeeeee!!!!!!!!!

    but whatever, id like to see some more of the lower-mid stakes have more rebuys, cubed, squared events, such as the $5^3, $10^3, and so on.

    also there are two $16.50 360 cap events that go off at the exact same time... one with a guarantee, one without. why not make one a 500 or 1k cap and slap a guarantee on that bad boy and keep the 360 cap with the guarantee. there is a $9.90 (360 cap) that goes off at 21:15 est that only gets around 140 runners, would be nice to throw a guarantee on that bad boy and see it fill up a bit more.

    i hope stars takes the time to ask some grinders from low to high stakes what their opinions are and go off of that instead of trying to have a bunch of people who dont play poker make a schedule

    pretty sure they fixed the timebanks...waht's wrong with them now


    (other than the fact that having a tourney like the $1k start with only 30s of timebank is absurd, and should def start with more)

    Pretty sure they are refering to the auto activate time bank feature, so that when you take a little longer on break than intended you come back to a timed out expired time bank. What's the point of the button if you don't need to click it.

    -More hyper turbo non HU freezes during the day with guarantees ($31 hyper $30k one time?)

    -A $33 or $44 guarantee instead of the $22 12.5k @ 1 PM EST (or one that goes off with the $11 40k, both are fine with me. Something like $33 20k seems fine. I know us folk from Canada and U.S. already have a fantastic schedule relative to everyone else, but lack of $33s during day makes me a sad panda)

    -Fix the stacks in some of the 360 caps like the 27.5 that goes off @ 1:15 PM EST...just give 3k in chips. 1.5k in chips is so 2004

    -Personally I think there should be another massive $109 ala WCOOP, maybe one on Saturday with a 200k-400k+ guarantee, relatively similar to the structure in either the $109 1.25 mill WCOOP or the $320 750k WCOOP. Or even similar to the 10 minute level structure with tiny jumps or similar to turbo takedown. Fast at the start and slow in the middle/end is nice.

    -Seriously, more FOs between 22-75 is nice. There's kind of a hole between 55 and 109 that FTP fixes with 75s and it adds a nice middle point between 55s and 109s. $77 FOs or whatever.

    -A nice sized $33-$77 turbo guarantee during the day

    Honestly, for those of us looking to break from low stakes/low midstakes/midstakes to higher stakes it'd be nice to have some better selection during the day. Hopefully stars implements a bunch of these changes.

    Speaking of that, between 4 to 6 PM EST sucks. So damn bad. Again, for someone like me (and there's a lot out there) with an ABI of $30 or so...this time of the day sucks. Like, it's awful. Please fix it.

    Also, WinterCOOP would be fantastic. Since SCOOP is all stakes, and WCOOP is the premier high stakes event of the year, how about something in the middle and/or similar to SCOOP? Or TCOOP. I'm not picky. :)

    ??? what did they fix?
    pretty sure i was playin the last two final tables on stars with 0 timebank left...
    very nice when playing for 20k difference in money jumps imo.

    lower stakes tourneys dont have regenerating time banks... i sattied into the $162 and was checking the structure since i hadnt played it in a long time and noticed that time bank thing then checked my $22 tourney and it didnt have that... so regenerating timebanks for all!!!!!!!!!
