| With the influx of all the now large poker rooms is people going elsewhere? I like playing at planet yet no one seems to talk about it here and also at the same time seems the number of people on the site is shrinking, hate to see this happening cause I like the site. Tonight I registered for a free roll or thought I did and then when it happened I had no seat, of course there is always the server problems as well. Why not breathe some life back into planet and make it as great as the others. It should be a worthwhile investment? | ||

| I play 1/2 or 2/4 draw there, but won't play holdem because I feel that the games (and graphics) are better at Pokerstars. Come play me in draw anytime...we have a hard time getting a full table, but when it is full, you can really maximize profit with solid play | ||

| partner I would love to have your skill but since I dont I would run with both feet and hands. Right now I am a learner and Planet was the first place I played and it has a place in my heart. I agree the graphics , servers and even the opprotunity is better elsewhere but it can always get better, It was through planet I have learned all I know because it was planet which brought me here where I could meet wonderful people like yourself and get help in making my rather lousy game better. | ||

| I still play the tournaments at Planet but that's about it. I've been successful at their limit tournaments so I'll keep playing until I can't beat the games anymore. I think the organization of the tournaments has come a long way since the UPF tourney there a couple of months ago. But it's population is seriously thinning. beigs | ||

| I know and that is what I am talking about I was going to put some more than I did money in last weekend but didnt because so few people was there. I think if they ran a satelite freeroll tio win a seat in another tourney which led to a third tourney which say paid some decent not forty dollar money it would bring people back and therefore while there they may stay for some ring games as well. Also get the freeroll times away from the local housewife crowds in the morning and afternoons and open them to the redneck working class like myself in the evenings more of us would log on and take some time to drop some money into the rake as well. Pokerstars has a freeroll at nine pm everty nite it is for a seat in a tourney on sunday which is worth a whopping two fifty with a hundred going to the winner of that one, why not do the same six times 40 is still 240. Let the top ten players move to sunday for the new tourney each sunday and you would have a field of at least 60 and of course if you dont win you can buy a sunday seat for five bucks and two to the house. This will add more players in the tourney field and at the same time get some cash back into the planets pockets who knows even may give them enough in thier pockets to pay for the whole thing in entry fees and rake. To cover all kinds of players each night the tourney is a different game and each sunday it is different as well this will get a field of many different skils. I really think this may edge the visa from the wallet and bring on new player accounts. Also why only reward those which are new, give any deposit 20 percent cash back so long as they earn so many pp points say in a weeks time. in Short market the site. sorry it is my job to market things. I sell magazines to people who have not taken them for five years. Yes I can do it. | ||

| Hi Woodstied Actually, PlanetPoker is increasing in games within the last couple of months.........Making changes or building a new generation of program is not as easy as some people seem to think....Even with some of the new generation poker programs, there are many errors that have not been fixed for long periods of time. That said, changes are on the way......By the end of September you will see a new program being tested for live money in the free games at Planet.....I think you will like the features and find them superior to any on the current market...... We at PlanetPoker are looking forward to this moment in a big way....It has been several years in the making! Sincerely Roy Cooke Cardroom Manager PlanetPoker on 21.

| I like Planet Poker. I play there quite a bit, but it looks like attendence has been thinning. Would like to see more big money tournaments at PP and I would like to see them sponsor a seat in the WSOP next year. The freerolls are not worth my time. e-babes | ||
