I'm not so sure about deeper games being a good idea for the site. I understand why a player like yourself might like that, but I think you can understand why that probably isn't something that a site would be too excited about. It's something I'll revisit in the future, but for now, let's take things one step at a time and see how the subtle changes are recieved.

As for your other suggestions, the one I probably like best is the 50-100 NL, but again, it's not something I want to bombard them with right away.

No offense, and I could be completely off, but it appears to me as if Stars could make a 50-100nl game appear in under 5minutes of work. I mean, it is just stupid for there to be a jump from 25-50 to 100-200. This shouldn't be a bombardment, it should be practical! I also don't see how it would take anything other than typing in 2 lines of code and a pokerstars update to simply add 50-100 tables.

Obviously it's "easy" but the real question is whether or not it's a good idea. When I say I don't want to bombard them, essentially what I mean is that I think changes should happen gradually so that you can have a test run to see how the changes are affecting the games.

So far they have been extremely recpetive to the changes I've asked them to implement and I'd like to make sure that any changes I request are well thought out as far as the "bigger picture" is concerned. There are lots of factors to consider when adding new games. One being, what effect will that have on existing games, etc.

Could you ask them to implement a "super-user" mode, and make it available to 2+2ers?
It is important that PokerStars keeps up with other sites in this regard, e.g. Absolute.

I think it would be great if they had lower NL HU tables.

Preferably .02/.05 or .05/.10

I know .25/.50 is considered lower limits, but it would really be great to get heads up experience without having to play $50 buyins every time.

Thank you for going out of your way recommending these insights, with what would otherwise never happen

low limit HU cashgames are just plain silly, you hardly can beat the rake imo.

You realise you would go broke because of the rake right?

Hi Daniel,

thanks for getting involved! my suggestions are:

NLH:

- more deep tables, eg at 10/20 (50min 100max buyin is fine)
- 50/100
- HS HU Tables

Other games:

- mid/hi limit mix games tables (ie. 50/100 - 300/600 HORSE, TD etc).
- HU HORSE SNGS

the latter is basically what i like to play on FTP but cant on Stars as they dont exist [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

thanks
