Great upgrade overall; the quickfire option is great, finally a solo mode!
Now the bad part: the blocked rooms. One of the big difficulties for me, and the main reason I was rarely playing, was the difficulty in finding opponents. Now, winning 25 GAMES to be able to progress to the next room is a complete turn off. And, If i'm seeing correctly, the number of wins resets every day! I had 1 win in London, and today the count is back to zero. So if this means I need to win 25 games in 1 day to be able to unblock the next rooms, I really don't see myself playing this. I struggled to play 2-3 matches, let alone win 25; and I'mn not even considering the insane amount of mandatory game time needed to do it. Please, let me know if I'm mistaken; but if I'm not, I would suggest revamping some of these issues.

Thank you for the compliment. Much appreciated! :)
As for the blocked rooms, you understood it correctly. A player must win against 25 unique opponents, not just 25 games. You mentioned it yourself above that it was difficult to find the opponents. So let me explain a little bit, there are three main reasons behind this feature:
In order to remove this unfair advantage over small players, it was necessary to lock the big tables. Now comes the important part, currently 1 share is equal to 100 or 200 shares which you'd earn without table unlock because not only you but all players are blocked from earning the high number of shares. The number of shares request will drop and will come in the average of 100-500 shares per day, so your reward percentage is expected to increase a lot more if you play more matches in London.
Take the example of today, there were many matches played in London, not only by existing players but also by new players. As far as I can guess, it is because of the table unlocking system.
New players won't find any opponents in London and Sydney without table unlocking feature, and they will probably leave with disappointment.
These were my opinions based on which I decided to implement this system. As you said, it is indeed difficult to achieve 25 wins against 25 people in a day, and that's exactly the point of this feature. But when the activity increase and enough players become active, we can think about reducing the required number of unique wins. In the end, we can always change the things if they don't work out properly.
After reading all this, does it make sense? What would you suggest? Keeping it as is, reducing the required number of wins or completely removing the table unlocking system?

You do have good ideas; my only concern is that, at least for me, they make it impossible to play. I'll explain: as it stands, you need to win 25 times against 25 different people in 1 day to be able to unlock the next table. Well, I work all day; it's very unlikely that I will ever play 25 games in my little free time. Even if it would happen, the odds of finding 25 different people to play AND win the 25 games in one single day are slim to none. Simply removing the daily reset would probably work: it would still allow progress, even at a slower rate, and it would still concentrate the players. Just my thoughts, thank you for the very thorough response! :)
