Please note that we are trying 100 hands for the Go for Gold contest this time. We'd love to hear your feedback on that.

Single Hand again?  Why not change it every month? I believe this is the 3rd month in a row the contest has been single hand.

There is a single hand contest each month, and also another contest that always changes. Our Double Super Times Pay contest just ended a few days ago.

We like the 100 hands. Quicker is better

I vote for 100 hand sessions. It keeps the game moving, and I think it keeps the scores closer..

i like the 100 hand idea because now when i look at the top scores i think i could beat that

[New2vp]

Look again.  I don't think I could beat 8135 points with 400 hands!

I think that going from 200 t0 100 hands is a bad idea.  It just increases the luck factor.  Last month all of the top 10 players scored two hands of 4000.  Since the score is already over 8000 it looks like it will still take two hands of 4000 to win.  Maybe 10 people will not score over 8000 this time, but people will have to try.  If anything, the sessions should increase to more than 200 hands per session so that more people could be skillful and lucky and need both to sort out the places above 8000.

I agree that adding more hands would create closer scores at the top. If everyone had 1,000 hands, more people would hit 2 jackpots in a session (Of course, some could also hit 3 or even 4). The more hands, the better the opportunities. However, we also acknowledge that if it takes a full hour to complete a session, many people will not participate. Of course, no decision will please everyone and people are entitled to different opinions.We appreciate all the thoughts and please continue to share your feedback.
