I emailed support at Pokerstars asking them to consider a monthly prize/bonus contest hybridfor whoever plays the most volume at their level. 1st/2nd/3rd places.For all you volume players out there please consider sending pokerstars an email suggesting this.Would be great to see them setup a contest type where plyers buyinto the contest for a small amount and have that pool along with pokerstars putting up there % incentives.If you wouldnt mind putting this up in your membership forums Ryan, i'd appreciate it(if your good with the idea)thx
Hey,If the idea ends up happening, I'm more than happy to promote it.I'm not sure it's the most ideal thing for the games, top heavy/rewards for winning/experienced players is not usually going to make the games any softer (much more likely the opposite if you think about who would be attempting a volume race).A promotion giving people a freeroll ticket for 100 games in a week being played at any level would likely help draw interest to the games from more casual players.
100 games is a lot of volume for a casual fish. I think 20-50 would be better
I guess thats true in one sense, but what actual % would take it seriously in proportion to the fish...only the reg's which dont play each other anyway for the most part. This is a contest for the reg's ultimately...not the fish, and at $50 and down esp. there are more than enough fish to go around even if a select few (by %) would take this challenge/contest seriously. I cant see it having any impact increasing the field, since fish are simply fish and prob. 80% never improve. Please consider, as my one email will obv. get nowhere and would need another 30 or 40 players to send emails in.thx
