I will most likely take out some tournaments from this BAP due to the 3hr earlier time start (Weeknight ones are iffy, and Sunday tournaments starting at 10am *puke).
Would you want partial refunds, full refunds, or baps for other tournaments that I end up playing during this time period?
Other majors that I can substitute instead are
Bodog $100k $162
Party Million this sunday $640
Merge $50k $109
Party $200k $215
Full Tilt Brawl $240
Full Tilt Sunday Major $216

Might also hop back on to ongame.
Transfer to other BAP - will send more to make up for it if necessary (just personal pref)
I am o.k. with you playing any of those other majors that you listed, unless it means you have to adjust the price and you need more money per share cause I got no money on any sites at the moment.:cool2:
Starting in 1/2hr. Whatever scoops I don't play I'll just addon tournaments on Sun 22 to make things easier. Might still end up playing all of them, just have to leave work a bit earlier.
Busted #2(l) 903rd for $108. Button raiser, I reshove in the BB with A7 15xbb, called by A9. game over.
I think I have my game back though, only limiting myself to 8 tables at a time. I believe I lost my reading edge when I tried to multi too many. Cashed 9/13 tournaments today, one still going on (stars bigger).
Yeah it was disgusting, I usually run decent during rebuy periods but for some reason I couldn't win anything whether ahead or behind. Was playing a $33 3x turbo sat to the $10k me and pretty much the same in that as well.
and he's saying if not, shouldn't be playing these
u can blow through tonnes of b/i's on these very easy....on the surface it's a $33 tourney, but in reality, it's a $300-$500 tourney
Understood quite a few of you are playing a lot higher than $33.'s so do you all have $100K in your poker bankrolls? Find that VERY hard to believe... I guess where I am in life I could put $100k in my poker bankroll but wife might not be too happy with that...:) And wouldn't bankroll rules really only apply if poker is your primary source of income?
Keep in mind that this is coming from someone who has played no higher than a $26.50 online tourney in his entire lifetime....

Fair enough, just pointing out, the $33+r 3x turbo plays like one of the most expensive tourneys u can play....less the $500+ events
Yeah what Vekked is saying is that this should not be a regular tourney unless you have an approx $100k roll, which I completely agree. I'm only going to play this a few times, take some shots. Last year I played it 3 times, won it once and cashed it another time.
It does end up being an expensive rebuy though, especially the last 2 hands of the rebuy period I was BB and then SB, both blinds were more than the starting chip amount. The 90min rebuy period really builds the pot.
One thing I do with these 3x turbo sats is that I only double rebuy at the beginning (or if I bust within the first few levels). After that its a single rebuy as the goal is to just make it to the addon period where you get 50,000 chips vs the 5,000 starting.

oh pooopy!
Thanks for keeping the tally of money won and such in o.p.:)
That's awesome...thought I was the only one who runs that bad in rebuys...lol
I've been playing the $1+r turbo's for practice on flips.....hasn't helped
Really? Do you mean poker roll? How many here have poker rolls of >$100K. ?
lol, life rolls maybe but not poker rolls...

+alot
The only way to be profitable in these is to make it to the addon.
You could blow through 300 easily without even playing a hand.
