So today there was supposed to be a big update. Unfortunately, unexpected things happen in software development. What this means is that the update has been moved to January. We don't have a date set yet, but we're hoping it'll be the 2nd or 3rd week. Since we aren't going to be able to give those promised changes by the end of the year, I at least wanted to give a little information about the nature of the changes, so some of the speculation can end. To answer the most commonly asked question: we *are* going to raise the minimum buy-in on standard (no icon) tables. That’s not all we’re going to do, but that’s the biggest change. And that's all I can say about that until the update. Sorry about the delay, we're all pretty excited about the next update and weren't happy to see the date get moved.

Depends. If they up the buyin in 10NL to $4 or so, it's not going to be so bad. Also, if you find the minimum too harsh, you can always drop down to 5NL...or even 2NL

Wel to be honest it can be an issue when on FTP. Many time i have sat down on a cash table and everyone has the lower limit stack especially around the time when double or triple points are on offer, grinders corner i call it. Raising the limits is good i think it will open things up a little it might crowd the lower limits but thats good to. Open table on FTP are always rammo. loads with 3-5 players waiting to fill up.
