Battle of the Planets
The week ending Saturday, November 1st will be the final week of the Battle of the Planets promotion. Prizes will be paid out this week as per normal.

Rake Changes Effective November 3, 2014
Rake will increase for all stakes of heads-up hyper turbo Sit & Go tournaments.

Tournament fees for all forms of knockout tournaments, including both scheduled and Sit & Go tournaments, will now be equivalent to tournament fees charged for similar non-knockout tournaments. This is a change for all forms of knockout tournaments except for progressive super knockout tournaments for which tournament fees will not change.

Hyper-turbo scheduled tournament fees will increase from 2% to approximately half of the fees charged for other scheduled tournaments at same or similar buy-in levels.

The cap for ring game rake for hands dealt at PL/NL games to exactly two players will increase to $2 for stakes $25/$50 and higher and $1 for all other stakes.

The cap for ring game rake for PL/NL games at $25/$50 and higher stakes with 5+ players dealt in will increase from $3 to $5.

Spin & Go rake will be increased at stakes $3 and above. Details are in the table at the end of the post. Note that the ‘Rake’ row in the table refers to the % of prize pool withheld for rake, as is consistent with our current communication on our website and communication of pricing by competitors about similar products.


Rakes Changes Effective January 1, 2015
Hyper-turbo satellite Sit & Go fees will be increased at stakes below $2,000 from 2% to an amount equivalent to roughly 75% of the fees charged for cash prize hyper-turbo Sit & Go tournaments of the same buy-in. A table at the end of this post includes sample fees for a wide range of buy-ins.

New tournament fees will apply in rebuy tournaments for players whose play is subject to significant local taxes in the form of gaming duty and/or VAT. For such players, tournament fees equivalent to those charged for initial buy-ins will be charged for rebuys and add-ons. We will soon provide a full list of sites/countries affected on January 1, but as examples, PokerStars.be, PokerStars.dk, PokerStars.uk, and PokerStars.bg will qualify due to gaming duty and players from Germany will qualify due to VAT.

Spin & Go Prize Changes Effective November 3, 2014
Spin & Go prize distribution will change to offer top prizes of 3000x the buy-in at each pool, increased from 1000x. Full details of the new distributions are available in the table at the bottom of this post.


Details and Examples of Changes

Sit & Go



Spin & Go



Scheduled MTT



The above are examples; similar changes will apply at all stakes.

NL/PL Ring Games

Dont listen to anything I say

Like people in the 2+2 thread have stated. This is a huge opportunity for sites like 888 and PartyPoker to get their shit together.

Doesnt affect me but makes me feel very concerned about the future :/

Hm.. Off-suite socks.. 

ggplz   Sweden. Oct 30 2014 02:30. Posts 16784

Wow, so bad for the future games. That HU rake is attrocious esp at the low stakes. Spin & gos needed lower jackpots and more low tier prizes but they did the opposite. These changes make me feel like they plan to cancel them due to player feedback to gain some player support but maybe not, it's amaya after all Not much else to say.. the numbers are right there

I dont understand why...

Why would they reduce rake for non hyper and increase for hyper... Perhaps to redistribute the player pool to less popular games


Syllogism   New Zealand. Oct 30 2014 03:50. Posts 214

next step segregate player pool



 
implemented for PokerStars.com and shared liquidity sites in the near future.



they also might have other skins like 888/Ipoker

It seems to be not very profitable in the long run to play those kind of hands. - Gus Hansen

Browsing through your hand histories makes me wonder that you might not be aware these games are possibly play money. Have you ever tried to cash out? - KapolLast edit: 30/10/2014 08:42

or maybe they see the same looming doom that previous owners did, and the purchase wasn't for longevity

hint: also look at amaya's stock growth this year


Santafairy   Korea (South). Oct 30 2014 09:04. Posts 2224

i don't understand your hint because it's totally consistent for a company that focuses on short term bullshit to keep investors happy with rising stock
