i personally like this oneHere is why this happens in PARP. You will come to a table and after playing for awhile with correct strategy you will usually win 3-4 hands and your money will be doubled-tripled on average. (You started with a $25 buy in meaning you have $50-$75 at the table.) Once this happens, (Because of party pokers fairness policy), the website will literally COME AFTER YOU. You will start getting 3,4, or 5 Pocket pairs within just 10 hands. (Statistically impossible.) (This is just one of many things the website will throw at you.)

holy cow those "steps" sng are a bad deal
Aparrothead replied to Aparrothead's topic in General Poker Forum
in my version the highest level you achieve is $100+5 from what i have read so far frm other posts (not from actual play!) $100 sngs are not that much more difficult ie: 100 games arent 10times harder than $10 games. and in my version the $100 game cost you $5if you can place in the $100 game you are bucks up woo hooi just came up with this theroy after reading other postsoh andthe real pros generally direct buy in to the top level of the steps so that competition is gonna be ferocious :evil: -

sorry i was refering to this post from another stringLooked over at Prima to find out exactly where the money goes in these "Rounders" tournaments. Here's what I came up with: Round 1 Buy-In: $5 + $0.50 10 players ($50 prize pool, $5 to Prima) Top 2 players move to round 2 ($50) Round 2 Buy-In: $25 + $2.50 (or Top 2 from Round 1 or 3rd from Round 2 or 5th from round 3) 10 players ($250 prize pool, unknown to Prima) Top 2 players move to round 3 ($225) 3rd player gets in round 2 again ($25) Round 3 Buy-In: $112.50 + $11.10 (or Top 2 from Round 2) 10 players ($1,125 prize pool, unknown to Prima) -
after reading some other posts here i got to thinkingassuming that you got first on all 5 games that you played you would have risked $1064.10 to make $3000. that is $967.50 in buy ins and $96.60 in rake. (all of the buy ins + all of the rakes) you can insert risk reward percentage here ( i forgot how to turn this into a percentage) if you made 3rd in round 5 you are actually losing money $264 to be exact that dosent seem like a great deal to me.now if you win a regular 1table sit n go you get 50% of the pot $10=$50; $100=500 etc so wouldnt it make more sence to start at a $5+.50 get first $2

ok so at party poker they are at 1,416,000,000 hand i remember when they hit the 1 billion mark, about three months ago. that makes 416 million hands in 3 months that makes the hand count about 460 thousand hands a day now talk about odds of a series of events happening.but thats my opinion i could be wrong :-)

ok i am going to put it as simply as i can. a smaller limit loose game is more profitable (BB/100) than a higher limit game.these are the fundimental reasons, (no order)-a player that makes less mistakes than the opposition will win in the long run (players in lower limit games make more mistakes)-you need to play a solid, intelligent game(you cant assume that because your opponent raised with 72o last hand he dosent have a monster this hand)-if you make less mistakes you minimize your losses and maximize your winnings-you cannot let another players style affect your play(this is called tilt,

ok so the comment about the 50k was out of line :? i have stooped to your level and for that i apologise. :oops: its just too bad that the all american kid who excelled in sports turned out to be quite the bad mouth. and felt the need to belittle other people just for the plain fact that that he has a god given talent and is great at tennis. who knows maybe you are good at poker, but no one could tell by the way you post here. and here is a cute all american face to go with the ugly hearted poster. http://www.juniortennis.com/ajt/playerinfo...?player_id=3740and smash sorry for talking about

found this while surfing the web http://teamfu.freeshell.org/ Sit & Go Strategy by Chris Moneymaker 1. Early in the tournament, don't gamble. You'll see other people around you gambling, but you shouldn't get involved unless you have a big hand. Big hands are AA, KK, QQ, AK. For the first 3-4 blind levels, you shouldn't be playing any other hands except these (with one exception, listed next). If you have AA, KK, or QQ, try to get all-in before the flop. Your preferred plan with AK is to re-raise a raiser all-in and have him fold. If you see a flop with AK and you didn't hit a pair, you pr
