I prefer to say that we have a "damaged foundation" to be more realistic, we just need to hold it and not let it fall until we can rebuild it, stronger than before. Much more dramatic, isn't it?

"perceived"

Foundation is things such as the Staff/Offices.

We also have many good walls (Payouts/Debt) and rooms(PV/MTV/Exchanger/Games), some even furnished well.

We just can't seem to get those with money (and many with small amounts) to come and spend their spending/advertising budget in those various rooms in large enough volumes.

In no way do I think it is reality that we are so weak that "just need to hold it and not let it fall". We don't even need any major redesigns. What we have should easily be enough. It truly is more a perception problem more than anything else. What we are doing now, is coming up with more furnishings and refurbishing what we do have for all our rooms.

However, no matter how well done our house is, if we can't get others to visit and stay long term, in mass, the house will have to make do with what it has to make it as nice and inviting as possible esp whenever someone (esp with money) does come around.

We need to work harder in promoting our house as the place to be. "Party at FBG's."

Regarding Texas Hold'em tournaments:
These are simply wagering tournaments - the users with the most total wagered at the end of the day will share the prize pool as such:

1st - 25% of fund
2nd - 20%
3rd - 15%
4th - 10%
5th - 8%
6th - 7%
7th - 6%
8th - 4%
9th - 3%
10th - 2%

** We will include the rules somewhere as well in the following days.

We might change the above based on participation. Note that this type of wagering tournaments is basically one of the simplest form of tournaments - more complex forms of tournaments that we were also thinking on doing at some point, will only be done when it makes business sense - that is, the amount of participants/poker players would pick up to a point where the development time needed to implement it be worth it.

But this should definitely be a nice addition to get general awareness about the poker up, and see where we can go from there. And we will switch up and adjust tournament timings and prizes to keep things interesting. Initially we are planning to do "Friday tournaments", but might switch things up and see how they perform and what frequency of tournaments gets the most players.

@ enamul

Hey, if you're going to lose that "money" at least its MTV's profit (debt reduction) and not some other online casino. And that may help bigger ad issues or FTQ payments/dividends. Obviously not immediately but it helps smile

Also, you might have noticed that $1,700 has been added to PPMG results yesterday smile

After 2 weeks of no house profits the house edge finally picked up, of what has otherwise been I believe a record two-week gaming volume ($320k worth of total bets), with a record day included with over $100k in bets made!

slosumo i have written a few bugs in the holdem bugs topic. How about fixing those? Also a few suggestions for small but usefull upgrades there. If we want poker to "pick up" it needs to improve and it needs to be atleast close to all the functionality of big poker rooms. Poker players are very picky where to play, but if we can attract them, they can big huge money in

Thx slosumo.
Love the activity at the poker tables and i think it will grow.
A suggestion to explode it. Decide if it is a good one for yourself but i think it could work.
The idea is to give people something to brag about and something to look forward to. Make a one time tournament with a huge prizepool (atleast 1 000 000 BAP guaranteed) something like a month from now and add a line to the poker banner about it. It would be a prizepool to look forward to to practice poker for and so on. Also it would give something for the winner to brag about and something that would motivate to go into bigger stakes (not only the lowest ones).

Following DraKill's idea, a sort of highscore table, some sort of rating of players, that would also make some people go for bragging rights, at least the competition on the top 10 would be bigger, and bigger money (or BAP pots) generate more income for MTV wink

i guess there is not enough players yet to create a monthly contest yet. but if we get bigger amounts being played then 50% could go to a daily price and 50% go to a weekly or monthly price

BTW this addon really deserves a new daily topic as well!

Please, solve the bugs of poker before adding new things. 

Also, if you want regular players (for get more traffic) you need things like multitable and a 4 color deck, you cant promote the game in the current state because people will see the bugs and will leave as fast as they can.

Send the programmers to play some hands and a tourney(with play money) on pokerstars

You can set 4color deck in my settings menu. You are right about multitabling.

Keep the tournament going. The first one quadrupled the poker activity and i am quite sure the activity would keep increasing. If you stop now this would be yet another letdown for the poker community.
