Play on your android tablet and take it with you.  Most seals tournaments end up in the bathroom at some point for me.

1)  I return to WSOP action today for the $1500 ante only at high noon Vegas time wearing full SealsWithClubs regalia.

2)  I'm not quite sure how to spell regalia, and it's that odd time when I've slept for about 6 hours and am definitely going to stare at my daughter for 5 minutes then pass out again for another 3ball, so I'm not going to.  Somehow that was easier.

3) Thanks for playing SwC.  This summer has been really fun meeting a handful of you guys and handing out some SwC gear.  I have more, just holler at me at the Rio.  I want to give it to you badly, please come up and ask.  I post my seat # on my twitter account.

4) There will be major site improvements happening in the next few months.  There are issues that we know about and thanks for sending all of your feedback - keep sending it - and we promise there will be a very fast feature-building period once our initial server side improvements are complete.  Please continue to support us during this time & we will continue to offer you solid customer support, fast cashouts, and tons of active cash games & tourneys.  On the back side of this, we will continue to build awesome features until we run out of ideas, which doesn't rate to be very soon.  PvP gambling-chess where you spin for pieces & interactive backgammon wagering can mark signal the end of the initial feature run. 

We have big plans.  Stick with us.

Again, many people have noticed that unlikely events seem to happen more more often than they should.  It would be very difficult and time consuming for a regular consumer to amass enough evidence to prove anything.  Probably the best way to find out would be, if you know how to read software, talk to the sellers and ask what they have to offer... buy their best package and go have a look.

For literally decades, I have seen rigtard after rigtard make the same tired claims, never ever present anything resembling data, and you think that every time some new goddamn rigtard shows up I should bother with reasoned arguments when they don't?  Why?  They're deserving of nothing but ridicule.  If you want to waste your time, knock yourself out.  I'll stick to pointing out that here's yet another boring-ass rigtard doing the same rigtard things every other one has done, and I'll laugh at them.

The schedule is still in flux and really always will be.

We can offer essentially unlimited self-sustaining tournaments, but we can only subsidize a limited number. There is an art to figuring out what these will be, we don't want to cancel them too fast, we also want to move on and try other games, we're trying to find the right balance.

Over a sample of 1000+ games we had to consistently pay people to play in the 10 Afters. At the same time, 10 chip SNGs ran much less often than previously, we assume because enough people started playing the 10 Afters instead which made the 10 chip SNGs not quite fill.

Offering 24 "MTTs" that only got 1-2 tables often even with large negative effective rake isn't as good as trying to build a few daily that are more like actual MTTs and let SNGs take the demand for smaller games. It may take some time for action to return to them, but we'll try to speed that along by adding rewards as soon as we can.

There will be new MTTs in the 10 to 100 range coming soon. If we do many at once we worry that all will fail.

the 10 afters were really popular and were feeders to bigger tournaments and people would play ring games if won money. The site is catering exclusively to high rollers as was said before while people with moderate bankrolls are being priced out. There are a lot more members that fall into the moderate bankroll catagory then the high roller one and  leaving them out of the loop is a big mistake imo .Your paying 50 every hour to freeloaders so they can try out the site while excluding people who play in ring  and are mainstays of the 10 points which really isn't a good business model or makes sense imo.

there are a lot of people who enjoy playing the 10 after plo and plo8 to take away plo is limiting game choices obviously sometimes you have to take a loss to make a profit. Very disappointing changes indeed.

The every seven with 40 chip buy in had 30 plus runners every time I played them while the seven ams had an avg of 25. Weees 100 point deepstacks get 25 to 30 people. All the people on the site or majority are all playing the horly freeroll. You need to grow the tourneys you have not take them away imo.

What is troubling is the shout down and mockery by the group, instead of reasoned discussion.

Reasoned discussion of what?  Like every rigtard, this assclown makes a wild-ass claim and presents zero evidence whatsoever for it.  Why should I waste time taking it seriously when obviously the whiny-ass cocksucker who made the claim didn't take it seriously enough to back it up?

Well, all that name calling sure builds YOUR cred. 

It wasn't his article, he was sharing someone else's thoughts, which are clearly more articulate than what I am seeing coming from yourself.

The 50chip tourney was missing for a week. Then back for a few days. And now I don't see it again. What is up with that? Hope it will be back, I love that one. Thanks.

edit: every7, plo8 after10, seem also to be missing.

We are redoing the schedule. The 50 chip at 7am was never supposed to return, that was a mistake. The games you mention are being removed also and some tweaks have been made to others so that we can keep them. The hourly 10 After games all all done, they weren't popular enough to be sustainable and seemed to hurt the microstakes SNG ecosystem.

New and substantially changed games:

Wed Big Ante 2000 guar - The ante is equal to the big blind. Three smaller rounds are added to the beginning of the tournament to make it last roughly as long as a normal game.

Big Prizes 100 - Every prize is at least 500 chips, enough to enter the tweaked 5pm which is now:

500 chip 4.20k guar - a 480+20 with 4200 chips guaranteed.

Sat Rebuy 12k guar - At the same time as the old Sat 10k, and with rebuys allowed.

Friday 15k guar - This was the Friday Swell which had been bouncing between 13k and 14k.

10 After NLHE 250 guar - Runs once a day at 8:10pm ET with a higher guar than when it ran many times per day.

10 After PLO 250 guar - Runs once a day at 9:10pm ET with a higher guar than when it ran many times per day.

Look for more additions in coming days.





The biggest complaint I have and others are voicing is the 10after tournaments being cancelled.   I don't understand.  You say they weren't popular?? They seemed to be to me.  I have to ask, based on the changes that I see, are you trying to cater more to high rollers? You are chasing away many with small bankrolls now.  There used to be a 2 chip tournament once a day when I started also.  The 10afters gave people so much more opportunity to play in MTTs.  Personally, I don't play in any MTTs with buyin > 100 chips.  That's my max. 

Deeply disappointed.....
