new stars 20+2

do the new stars 20+2 180 people tourneys count toward TLB points?

No.

thanks.

Anybody else think these are sooo much close to a MTT? I think they should count somehow towards them.

In pretty much any sense that is meaningful, they are multitable tournaments. Most likely the answer is that they are still in testing and will eventually count just like any other.

I played one of these tonight, and I was impressed at how fast it filled up. I was not as impressed at being on the unpleasant end of a KK vs. KK vs. AA preflop all-in fest. That I will most likely never see such a thing again in my life is some consolation.

I just started playing these and now Pokerstars won't work for me, but I can still post here and play on Party. Is anyone else having Pokerstars problems?

I just finished 3rd in one. I got rewarded some TLB points for it according to the email.
