S4 Online National League - Discussion

Speaking as a member of a Division 3 side (albeit a sleeping giant   ) surely it"s absolutely right that those in the higher divisions should be playing for the better prizes.

you would have thought so. If the rewards in the football championship were the same as those in the premier league then there would be no point having different divisions and no point having promotion/relegation

I think this analogy would have some relevance if football teams could only recruit players from their own geographic catchment area.

I dont care guys but i reported both of them to betfair by phone as tourney was being played ..

Your"e joking,right?

Or just sad

sorry to say that theres plenty of sad  pathetic people doing similar things. . ..

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere, but is there a player list for each Division?
Trying to find out who is who is proving to be tricky. Some people dont seem to tell you who they are when you sit down at there table, which i find a bit against the APAT spirit.

I will need to update it for new players this week though.

First game I have played this season, FWIW I think the structure is still too fast, not a lot of time to play poker. I will play these when I can, but not alot of fun TBH. Sorry to sound negative, but still some tinkering to be done. Why can"t we replicate the structure that we finished with on BSQ, that was pretty darn spot on.

Seconded.

[smileriraq]

agreed mikey boy, just doesnt seem the same as last year !!!!!!!!!!!! Its not one specific thing but seems lots of little things giving an overall less fun and pleasant experience. Last night was an improvement so maybe well get it sorted eventually

[coprey]

Agreed very crapshooty by 10pm.

[Swinebag]

whilst the increase to 13 minutes is a welcome improvement, the blind structure is different from last year.

this year we have.

10/20
15/30
25/50
50/100
75/150
100/200
150/300

last year it was much smoother

10/20
15/30
20/40
39/60
40/80
50/100
60/120
80/160
100/200
120/240
150/300

never got any further than this so dont know the rest

still room for improvement.

Also, I have no way of finding the structure on this site.

You look in the lobby and under "betting structure" it simply says "2500 chip"

This is dark ages and surely bad for business. Who in their right mind enters a tourney without knowing the structure? (apart from APAT members looking to support our new sponsor)

Thanks Rob, and that explains the different experience. So sad that a lot of players are reconsidering whether to continue with the league. We had a whole year of "testing" last year to learn from, but unfortunately this was not exploited, I fear many new players may not return, regardless of added value. The main priority must be to make the games enjoyable and fun, and that means sorting out the poor structure.

[Mikeyboy9361]

Thanks for that Rob, I thought that was the case, but couldn"t find last years structure. No structure in the tourney lobby is a joke! Leigh, Des I have asked why can"t we just replicate last years structure, but no one seems to know the answer. Also last years league games started at 7 pm (Ithink!)

[coprey]

Last years games started at 8pm and generally finished around 12:30am

[Roscopiko]

Shove botting is a skill imo  

Structure seems fine to me.
