I managed to register to one 5k freebuy starting now. With $5 rebuys/add-on I would not even consider it when there is a 90% chance it will crash again....

I havent been able to get it going all day. Keeps saying logged off due to inactivity. I can try to bring up a game and it just keeps thinking. Truly sad that they havent got this fixed in days now but all the rep is gonna say is they are working hard to fix issues and they dont have a ETA. Pretty sad IT department if you ask me. Should have been upgraded right the first time not months later still issues.
what job would any of us keep if we kept screwing up?

They originally had two free re-entires but I guess they decided that was what was crashing their server so they've done away with that really nice feature.

Unless they already did that and I'm forgot, then they should probably change the free entry notification you get when you bust to not say free entry.

Crowded field, which is to be expected, but I'll be in.

It seems to be hit and miss, not sure what's going. Some games have it, some don't. Maybe they're trying different things to see what's been causing the crashes. Anyway, the game I played yesterday did not have it, the game I played to day did. They seem to have changed the way you access it too.

Really, the only problem I have is with the actual structure if I had to critique the series. 1k chips doesn’t have a lot of room to maneuver with although 10 minute blinds do make up for it some.

another PR disaster. Great idea and would have engendered lots of good will. Instead, it shows their platform still can't be trusted.

The 2 free rebuys are available on every game except the cancer games.

When you bust: you have to close the table and the lobby, reopen the game lobby from the main lobby, hit re-enter, watch video.

Its not the smoothest process, but free is free....

Its says when you bust you can watch a promo video, I did not get any option for promo video yesterday and today. I informed the consultants there yesterday already but still no progress. I even have money stuck in buy in tournaments that did not even start. Apparently I have to wait 24/47 hrs. And yesterday afetr i advised the Jimmy guy he said I just have to re enter . Nothing will be deducted. When i re entered it deducted the re enter fee and his answer as well as Millie said there is nothing they can do i just have to play it. And you have to wait an hour for them to give you answers that is not even correct.


If you get knocked out click leave tournament. exit out table and go back to tourny lobby. hit re-enter it will then ask you if you want to buy back in or watch a video. Think it should have been explained by them you cant do it at the table your on you have to exit/leave game back to turny lobby

Anyone else noticing that "nothing" works properly in these tourneys? About twenty minutes ago, I realized one had started at 10PM (I was 1:45 late) I registered, and before I was sat at the table, a message pops up that Late Reg is over - then I was sat at a table. Now there are no option buttons on my table for "Re-Buy", "Double Re-Buy" or "Auto Add-On". I have about three BB's, I notice "Late Reg" is supposed to last 10 levels (We're in L9) and whenever I shove, the whole table folds. After I win the blinds because the BB wouldn't call a 3BB shove, I win the blinds with another shove and notice we're all In The Money. There are still no buttons for Re-Buy (supposed to be 15 Levels) or Add-On (supposed to occur after L15).

I end up 3-Bet shoving my ten or so BB's, getting two callers, and finishing with the third best hand (TT<AQ<99) - tournament over. I did not want to Re-Buy, I probably should not have Re-Baught, the Yankees just tied up Game 6 of the LCS, but still, W.T.F.? :confused::confused:

Just got knocked out in the currently running tournament ITM for the big $1 payday. I would have loved to snapshot the hand to post it but once you get knocked out, it appeared to be no longer accessible to me (which kinda sucks and should be changed, but I guess I should just be happy the tournament didnt crash!).

Anyway I jammed JhJs and the big stack calls me with AcKc

and the flop is .....

QcTcJc

Cant say that has ever happened to me before. At least I get to go to bed before the sun comes up.

I just got KO'd QQ < 46s on my BB, MP limps, folded around to me and I shove and he calls and hits runner runner for a flush, I was around 28th, with around 15 BB at the time, he didn't cover me by much.

WatchMeWork is still in it. Edit: with 30 BB in 15th atm. Just over 300,000K
