Are there no longer $0.55 On demand tournaments? I don't see them in the lobby (at least on Mac client)

Blobman,

We have many right now: $5+$0.50, $3+$0.30, $7+$0.70 and $20+$2

Let me know which one is missing

Regards

The $0.55 On Demands that have always been there and were even there as recently as Sunday (I know because I won one!).

You also forgot $1.10's form your list, which are currently in the client, even though those were in fact missing initially when the Mac client was released.

So I guess my question is are those $0.55's discontinued (which would be a shame because they're great) or are they must missing.

hello there,
new member at ACR,but very pleased one.with a software little more modern and a lower deposit ammount,i think the players will increase importantly,which(the lack of players) is a little problem.big advantage of the software that it doesnt give bad beats all the time and sometimes the better hand wins in preflop all in situations unlike other known softwares(you who you are).keep the good effort there at ACR
ps:the 10$ on demand freeroll that is all day long is top tourney

For the second time now, I'm having the problem with the Mac client where I open it, everything is working fine, then out of nowhere the lobby freezes, so I force quit the application, and then when I reopen, it acts like it's loading as usual, but then when it says "starting" it just fades to black and nothing ever comes up. So now I can't play the Cardschat freeroll or the SNGs I was about to play. Luckily I didn't register for anything yet, so I'm not losing any buy-ins. But this has probably got to be fix #1 for the Mac. It has so many glitches, but at least make sure it opens more than half the time!

Thanks scooper

Your welcome Ace. No need to say sorry, I think I should. I wasn't sure what you were referring to at first since you didn't quote me, which is fine. When I went back and read my post it seemed kind of smart alec to me. I'm not even positive your initial question was answered in this thread. I have seen the answer on cardschat at some point. I didn't intend anything negative, I just pointed out kind of bluntly that the company line on a mobile application was confirmed at some point by the ACR rep. It was a poor attempt to answer you question and a little too blunt. There was good intent there on my part too, as I understand not wanting to peruse an entire forum to find a simple answer.

If my memory serves me correctly they said it's coming soon, but didn't offer any timetable. I'm not positive when I first found out, but it feels like "soon" is passing. The ACR rep usually responds to that question if they haven't in a while. I wonder how the rollout of Mac is working out. That could have an impact on the mobile application release date. Welcome to cardschat and good luck at the tables!

Yeah i should of quoute thats my mistake im new to these forum still learning but thanks alot scooper

Me either, Windows client

​

they promised a $1,000,000 prize pool for every Sunday in October and now they are going back on that promise. Adding two more HALF Million dollar tournaments in November to make up the difference doesn't suddenly make everything right. If I promise to pay back a $10,000 loan to you tomorrow and then change my mind and say that instead of one payment, I'll give you $100 a week for the next 100 weeks, you'd be outraged, even though I'm EVENTUALLY paying back my $10,000 loan.

The promotion is $5 million guaranteed. As others have said, the overlays have been ridiculous ($67,960 on the 12th and $133,300 on the 4th :deal so they had to restructure the tournament schedule. They did not go back on their promise because the guaranteed prize pool has not changed! If they said they were going to split the remaining 2 weekly $1 million dollar prize pools into 100 weekly $20,000 GTD tourneys, I'd be right there with ya saying it was ridiculous! But if you're a good enough friend of mine that I lent you $10,000 and you were supposed to pay $5,000 a week for 2 weeks but you couldn't pull it off so you offered to pay me $2,500 a week for 4 weeks instead, I'd probably be alright with it... Especially when I consider that the loan was originally for $25,000 and there weren't any issues with the first $15,000.

Plus we're buddies, remember? :beer:

Think of it this way: If I own a retail business

You're probably pretty rich, and I'm starting to figure out why we're such good buddies! Think of it this way: If you go to a weekly poker game at your buddies house and he guarantees $25,000 in prize pools (because he's drunk and rich :shakehand) but after the 3rd week he realizes he will have to restructure the tournaments if he is to make good on his promise, how much hell do you give your buddy? I'm perfectly fine with it, especially when you also consider that it was never a loan in the first place!

You act like you've sent ACR $5,000,000 and they won't answer your phone calls :rofl:

Hey Bob, your title lists you as an "Expert Member", so why do you seem to completely miss my point?

How could you betray me Dan? (Can I call you Dan, or is Fan better? (Or Steely? :dontknow) I thought we were buddies man! Apparently not, you're a backstabber and I don't even know your name! :cheers:

I'm pretty sure you're not the first person to realize I'm no expert, but for the record I never claimed to be

Can someone get a mod in here to derank me please? The so-called "New Members" (I'm onto you!) are not fooled by your false advertising scheme, CC!

dj11's suggestion regarding satellite tournament lobby links is a must.

You might already know this, but some may not as it is confusing. I recently answered this question in another thread and have seen it in the past as well You should be automatically registered for the main tourney when you win a satellite. Click on Game Info, on the main poker client page and the top option is "my tournaments".

 

[ScooperNova]

Yeah i should of quoute thats my mistake im new to these forum still learning but thanks alot scooper

No problem. You were doing me a favor by not quoting me. lol

 

[Italiano1978]

Not Illegal

sounds very illegal, lol

I have 1 acct. with each and they state they are 2 separate comp. on same network so if you close one and open other you can play in the same tourney of course if you have the buy in

Thank you for the report Blobman,

I have sent it to the techs.

[blobman]

The Mac client appears to be working now. However, the fact that the client repeatedly goes not responding forcing me to force quit and reopen (and thus miss hands in ongoing games) makes me hesitate to enter anything other than micro stakes games. And the fact that sometimes when I'm forced to force quit and reopen the application, the lobby doesn't load, thus preventing me from playing any of my games for 12-24+ hours, it makes me not want to play on ACR at all.

I know the Mac client is in Beta, and I'm hopeful that the techs will be able to fix this issue in short order, but it's only fair that my fellow Cardschaters are familiar with the risks of using the Mac client.

Yes, we are working on this to have it fixed as soon as possible.

Thank you again

That is correct,

You can have an account with all the WPN brands which that is not an issue but you cannot play with them at the same time.

This isn't a MAC only problem. It's happening on windows as well.

I was noticing that the points I get at the tables don't translate in points towards my reload bonus. I got 100 something "combat points" at the table and then I was only credited around 40 "ap" towards a bonus. What is the difference in the combat points you get at the table, and "ap" points that unlock bonuses?

Yes, I've heard of it.

Good day,


Combat Points are based on the Dealt Rake Calculation
Award Points are based on the Weighted Contributed Rake Calculation

Also note that you get 1.5 CPs per RP since you have a higher military rank.

To check more information on how each works you can go to this link

 

[pm6guy]

I think ACR needs to bring fast fold into their client

Also, when are we ever going to get mucked cards at showdown? It's due time

One more thing I would like to 2nd is breaking down the beast and SNC into what stakes people play

 

[johnxaitafe]

I posted the screenshot of the suspended free roll tourney last week. For the record, they credited me 74cents. not the $2 I was hoping for, but it was a fair gesture.
Now if I ever catch fire like that in a big tourney and it is suspended with 56 players left...there will be blood-that is all.

There is a very standard procedure for divvying the prizepool if a tournament is cancelled after close of registration but before the tournament is ITM. I'm pretty sure the procedure is divvying the prizepool according to a chipchop. So 74 cents is a very fair deal to you because chipchop favors chipleaders when compared to an ICM model (which is a more accurate representation of your chances to win the tournament). So the 74 cents you got without having to do any further work is better in the long run than you could've expected to cash for if the tournament played out. Also, keep in mind the top prize for that freeroll is only $2.50, and only the top 10 get paid. A big chunk of the time, even a big chipleader with 56 players left isn't going to cash. So the 74 cents is very fair and probably the best thing that could've happened to you in that specific scenario.

My statement is not to excuse ACR, because no tournament should ever be cancelled or suspended due to technical problems, but in your specific instance, it worked out for you well.
