Today, Wednesday, September 30, when entering the pokerstar software, I notice that the minimum value of S&G is 1 dollar. It happened to you too? do you know anything about this? is it my software?

I value your answers :) , have a nice day :icon_sunn

Yes the smaller buy ins less than a dollar are not there anymore for sit and go.
Can still play spin and go for 25 cents though if looking for cheaper games.

Also these games less than a dollar in tournaments are still available.

They are gradually taking down every SNG by the number of seats. They are now down to HU SNGs only. I don't know why they are closing the SNGs right now but I assume it for some sort of maintenance.

I did notice that the player numbers on the site are down about between 7 to 10k of their normal player numbers. It kinda shows that SNGs on Stars draws many players - probably micro and smal stakes players. I know I play the micro/small stakes mostly because I just can't be bothered to play a tourney with 1000's of players for small prizes.

(cavaet: It wouldn't surprise me if Stars increased the rake though. Greed never sleeps, and corp greed never decreases.

Looks like a scheduled server restart to me. As of this moment there are no SnGs available, and the first MTTs will begin in around 3 hours. They do this on a regular basis, and it usually does not mean changes to game selection.

If partner seems to be a maintenance since at this moment all the values ​​have disappeared. :D

Same to you. I was actually about to comment, that I think, it makes sense for them to raise the bar a little bit, but then it turned out, it was just a server restart. So good for you I guess :)

What a scare, I always play at 25 cents, it would be very bad if the site did not offer these games anymore. I'm glad it's back to normal.

No, okay ...


It was only a maintenance of the system, luckily they will continue as they have been doing for years!
Thanks for participating, greetings
