PokerStars has a new tournament schedule!

[Muckit]

Overall I think the schedule isn’t friendly to West coast players.

Why did all the other non Hold’em games keep diversified schedules and limits but Omaha H/L fixed limit games get removed?

I’m on Pacific Time and work a typical 9-5 job Mon-Fri. The tournament schedule changes removed all the games I like to play on weekday evenings. Specifically, I’m no longer able to play Omaha H/L fixed limit tournaments. All the medium and high limits games were removed and the only low limit Omaha H/L game still available starts at 4:30 AM.

Hello 2+2,
In our own internal review, we noticed that we had left some tournaments out which we intended to include. We have added more tournaments in three categories: 1) higher buy in rebuys; 2) micro tournaments; 3) midrange freezeouts.

In addition to a nightly $109 rebuy tournament at 20:00, and a $50 1 rebuy / 1 add-on tournament at 00:15, you will notice many more micro tournament additions to the schedule.

There are more micro tournaments now than ever before. Highlights include:
*$1 NLHE every day at 06:00, 07:00, 11:00, 18:00, and 19:00
*$1 Fixed limit Omaha at 16:30
*$1 Stud H/L at 20:45
*$1 HORSE at 21:45
*$1 Razz at 22:45
*$1 Fixed limit Omaha H/L at 23:30.

There is also a whole host of other micro tournaments with buy-ins ranging from $0.25 to $4, with plenty of no limit hold'em.

Examples of mid-range freezeout additions since Friday:
*$10 NLHE daily at 19:00
*$15 NLHE at 22:00
*$30 NLHE at 23:00

The spreadsheet on the web site hasn't yet been updated with these new additions (we'll take care of that ASAP), but the games are in the lobby. We hope you enjoy them.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, think of all the LL possibilities. Eager to return, it's nice to see Stars have expanded the micro fastbuild options.

Suggestion: 20%'s ehh, make it 15% payouts, it'll make the FT payouts a little juicier. Eh, worth the try. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

[Omahahaha]

20% is fine, dont change it

my [censored] luck, ill never cash at 15%...most my cashes end up being in that 5%

like the 9.90 300 max, 27 pay, which sucks hard. ive never cashed in it, though had it been 20% id cashed many times.

Mike,

is there any way to add a 20/30 rebuy at 12:00 pm-ish for us poor Euros? Perfect for week days...50 1r+a is of course cool as well.

[Rekwob]

thanks alot for the midrange freezeouts! More $10 buyins throughout the day would be nice, noticing these get a lot of players.

This is pretty awesome for high limit players, I may have to start adding tournaments to my weekly sessions again...

That 100r may very well become my bitch.
