Starting in July, the Poker School will present a set of changes to the Poker League.

At the moment there are 4 levels in the league. In the new league there will be only two levels - Primary and Masters.

The starting level will be reserved for those players who entered the School of Poker in the last six months. Every time a new participant signs up at the School, he will be given a ticket allowing him to play at this level of the League for 90 days. In the beginning, all participants of the Poker School will have access to the initial level of the League for 180 days (which means that our old members will also have access to the League).

The Masters level will be open to all participants of the Poker School that meet the conditions. To play at this level, the player will need to enter at least once a month to the site of the Poker School to receive a free ticket.

I already saw an update in the school of poker, I do not like that now the game is given a little tickets and a prize in tournament dollars, it turns out that if you win tournament dollars, then you can not play cash games on them but buy tournaments!

The league of the School of Poker no longer has the spirit of competition and the desire for growth. There were several leagues that required reaching a certain level for the transition to a higher league. Now it's lost. The prize zone in the primary league is 100 seats, for several tens of thousands of participants. It does not make sense, like a prize fund of 10 dollars for 10-15 thousand people in each game. League of Masters - with paid participation and also ridiculous prizes for a very narrow group of lucky ones. It's a pity, but the changes can not be called successful ...

The structure is tighter in relation to the amount of players. And at the end of the league, players who win the highest scores win prizes in T-Money (T$) instead of just $ (money). After that, you must play again to win your prize.

Interesting changes. I think it would be worth trying to take part in the league. Previously, I regularly participate, but now, unfortunately, I have no time. I hope that I will find time for this.

In the first league it's impossible to play, I agree.
And in the second, perhaps, given the payment for the first place of about $ 20.
Not much trying, and playing from time to time, you can get into the prizes at the end of the month, and it's especially good for new players.:)

I very much doubt that the new player will get to top 100 by the end of the month. The beginner usually does not have the money for 32 tournaments per month and if you look at the consisten of players in the Masters League then you will immediately see that there only reg players previous masters league and taking into account the fact that the places paid in the end of the month became even less, then beginners have no chance at all.

Change is not good with the New two Leagues everyone was used to four leagues the only reason for the change is greed to cut 25K from the prize pool.

I initially didn't like the changes but there are definitely less people playing the Initiation games now. As a new player, I'm hoping a top 10 finish on the board this month will give me my first bankroll - 2nd at the moment.

I agree with you, but it is easier for beginners to start there than in tournaments with a large number of players.
In these tournaments, a maximum of 300-400 players

Previously, it was possible to play free pokerstars freerolls. I have not received tickets, I have been playing Pokerstars for 2 years now. Now only in the Master League I need to play for money.
