OTOH,

you can play more tables at Stars than amost any other (U.S.) site.

Other sites:
Cake Poker (unlimited)
Absolute Poker (9)
Ultimate Bet (9)
Full Tilt Poker (8)*
Bodog (3)

Stars also lets you play as many additional tournament tables as you want, which is a plus.

*You must email support to extend your maximum tables from 4.

I'm still debating on whether I'm going to mix my Stars play with Full Tilt next year to maximize my play or to simply add some SNGs to my maximum Stars ring tables.

5. Point #4 is somewhat stolen from PartyPoker. Along those lines, having a "happy" hour where the FPP multiplier is increased by an additional % to get and keep games going during low hours could be key also.

IMO this has been the best idea brought up so far in the entire thread.

Stars only has like 5 or 6 2/4 tables going at most of the hours during the late night, which is losing you 6 tables of rake coming from me for 4 hours a night.

2nded, this is a great idea. Also double FPP points pleeease for people who start games, I have many many many times brought the number of 3/6NL tables from 4 to 12 in half an hour or less, give me a little kickback

How about a Supernova-only option in the FPP store to purchase the ability to play more than 12 cash games? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'm hoping to hear that there will be an increase in the table maximum to 14 or 15.

I also hope that just a little bit of value is added in the 600k-800k VPP range in one way or another to give incentive for those that don't have a shot at elite and plan on reaching/stopping at "the sweet spot" of 500k.

I'm down for whatever Stars decides on the freerolls. That is a promotion mostly targeting lower-tier VIP members and I think it would be best to consider what they want and whether or not the promotion is accomplishing its' objective. If there are a lot of players happy with the current setup then maybe they should keep it?

I think just a couple of these small changes will make a lot of players (myself included) very, very happy. Of course, I already am happy playing at Stars but this would just be "icing on the cake".

What (hopefully small) changes are the rest of you wanting?

EDIT to add:
I also think the increased VPP during non-peak hours is an outstanding idea and I would really like to see something along those lines implemented. Occasionally I play mornings and there aren't as many options for players as there are during evenings because of the drop in traffic. I think something like this could get more games/tables running.

Not much to report. 2nd player purchased the Porsche, blog story coming soon. Looking to make sure all the late Supernova Elites will be able to play PCA if they opt in. Apple and Samsung keeping us very busy with supply issues. Watching the WSOP and HSP on youtube. VIP PCA events now running, a few players will be playing PCA for 200 FPPs.

Scotty
