Could you explain to me what the difference is in both these cases , please? Astral Ursa Major both 9 and 6 seat tables qualify for First/Best 20 games but in the Astral Ursa Pegasus only the 6 seat games count for First/Best 20 games . Why is that ?
We only have 6-seat games for Pegasus. We were concerned that 9-seats would take too long to fill at a 100k buy-in. If we do add 9-seat Pegasus games, they will count just like the others.
They seem to becoming more popular and I have seen players mentioning it on the tables, and would probably attract more players to play 100k games… thanks for the quick response Ash .
Thank you for bringing this topic up as many of us are wondering the same thing. I played many 25k games because the astral 1st/best20 leader boards, however i was forced to leave 50k medium games because those games were not included to compete in 1st/best 20. now im playing high stake astrals every week but we are forced to play on a 6 seat table and most of us like playing on 9 seat tables. I would like the option of a 6 seat and 9 seat table for the astral 1st/best20 so all of us wanting to play either 6 seat or 9 seat can enjoy the games just like in medium stakes there are 6 and 9 seat tables for the astral games. I understand that the 50ks in medium and 250ks and 500ks in high werent included because not enough players would join those to play 20 or more games a week, but lets at least keep it equal in high stakes on 100k tables as the 25k tables in medium, and that is to have 6 and 9 seat tables in astral games on both 25ks and 100k games, thanks in advance for working on getting this done.
Im so glad this was brought up as well. I love playing 9 game seats and play them all the time in the 25k games. I would rather play the 100k games for 1st and best 20. I would like to have the option of playing the 9 seat as well. Ive just never been into to 6 game seats and would love to see that happen. I say give it a try I bet you would get more players to play in that. I really enjoy the 25k games. if you don’t do it for the 100 k games do it for the 50k games Im sure that would fill up fast in the Astral league as well. Thanks
I agree, if there are 100k 9 seat astral games then they would fill fast because more players that dont like 6 seat tables would play that arent playing now because they dont like 6 seat tables. just like in medium, the 9 seat tables are more popular than the 6 seaters. I think that would be the same case in high games too. Also i have heard many players from medium say that they would play them but they dont because they dont want to play on 6 seat tables, thanks
Hi
Thanks everyone for the feedback and thank Ash for looping me in so quickly.
We have already noticed that 9 max SnG are making up about 70% of the games played in the Astral Weekly Leagues. Probably due to more tournament points for first place.
In the light of this discussion and the fact that 9 handed SnG are filling up in other Astral levels, we would be happy to introduce Pegasus 9 max tournaments alongside the 6 max events.
I don’t like making major changes mid month which might impact monthly Leaderboards. The 100,000 SnG are contributing to the Monthly SnG LB - High, which is already taking shape. Even though 100,000 is the lowest stake in the Monthly SnG LB - High, I think it would be fairer on those who have earned points in the 100,000 6 max games if 9 max games awarding more points for first were introduced nearer the end of the month.
Therefore, I propose starting 9 max Astral Pegasus from Sunday 26th Aug

Thanks so much Rob and Ash… always so helpful .
Awesome Rob thanks for doing this… will be a great addition I know i will be playing the 100k games now rather than the 25k games…Just a thought u may look into doing the 50k as well. I think u would be surprised on that one as well.
sorry Ash meant to say thank you as well
rob and ash thanks so much, we will see more high stake players now because of this so more competition is good right. And as sand had said, if u could somehow get 50k tables included i know that would attract both medium and high players just like the 100ks. thx again in getting this done so fast
Just looked and the 100k 9 seat table is available to play starting today for the pegasus 1st and best 20 leader boards on high stake sit n go games but keep in mind that all games count towards your 60 monthly games leader board too.
