Heres the reply I got, using the same email message.

-------------------

Thank you for writing to us.

The step system has been very popular. As such, it is likely that we
will
have cash step Sit & Go tournaments at some point in the future.


Also, I have forwarded your email to management. I know that they will
appreciate your suggestion.

If you have any other suggestions please send them to us.

Best Regards,

Joseph
PokerStars Support Team

-----------------------------------

I didnt mention Cash Steps, but they would be cool. I would rather see Sunday Million Steps 1st



EDIT: Getting the Sunday Million Steps doesnt look too promising. I really doubt we will see them [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Not trying to be contrarian, as I'd probably play these STEPS too... but don't you think Stars would rather not have all their low-limit customers constantly bouncing around these STEPS every day/week? Wouldn't this possibly have a negative impact on their other games? I know if I was playing STEPS every week, with all the free replays, I'd likely have less time for cash games, regular tournaments, etc.

I say get rid of the DS's and TS's. A format that wastes time in between rounds can't be as profitable (for stars) or popular as a step system. Steps are perfect for both casual online play and nitty grinders. DS's are a pain in the ass for everyone.

They should at least test it during the 530 sunday million, I'd play a bunch of those for sure.

Edit: During the 530 weeks, the DS's often have overlays at the odd hours. Even more reason for stars to ditch DS's.

I agree, ditch the TS's.

I kind of agree with the DS's but I kind of dont.

The DS's almost never fill up. I dont keep a really close eye on them but I have never seen one fill up. I think ditching the regular DS's and replacing them with the $8.80 6 max DS's would make a big difference.

I wouldnt mind seeing all of the DS and TS ditched but I doubt they would do it.

I would REALLY like to see steps to the million. I might cry if Stars gets them. Heck, I might cry if they dont get them.

I think cash steps would be great! I have written to pokerstars support a couple of times and they say they aren't considering them (this was awhile back).

They were fun in party... but I think the key is not to make them too long (as in too many steps). Just like the suggestion for the sunday million, a 3 step process would be best for cash too. When you have 5 or 6 steps, it has an initial allure to the low stakes player for hitting it big, but after a handful of attempts, mathematics dictate almost all will come up empty, and thus get frustrated. A shorter process makes the light at the end of the tunnel more attainable. Even 3 steps (at $5 buying) can give the low stakes guy a realistic shot of playing in a $50 SNG (or whatever a third step would be). Just my opinion.

I think they should add the sunday million steps too. But cash steps excite me even more.

So let's do that Bryan.

I just wanted to pop and applaud you guys with this brainstorm. I'd love to help, but my creative juices haven't been flowing lately.
