One tourney per week or every 2 weeks, which one

hockrefhockref
in Online Poker
Hi all!

I have been away from playing for a long time but am starting to play again a little.

I am thinking about play the Sunday 1/4 million on PS every other week but wonder if that is the best tournament for a casual player to be playing in?

I suspect due to the number of satellite players that there are many more looser players in the sunday 1/4 millino than there are in a regualr $10 buy in tourney.

Cheers,
Steve

    Variance is so high theres usually 20,000 players. Unless you just want to blow money I suggest playing something smaller...

    Can you crush the $4.40 180man tournements easily? I'd start there if you don't know.
  • hockrefhockref
    i know the answer, not sure I want to admit it....lol

    I think $4.40 it is then.

    Cheers,
    Steve

    You know there are more, what's that comment you made earlier about sports ;-) lol
  • CerberusCerberus
    I find it funny that you had to post the same hand twice. Read the post you made, look at the hands. Kinda shows that you're grasping at straws.

    And, btw, who left up $100+ on .10/.25 after 3 hours, and who made $4? I win :)
