Yess, its sunday again, the best day for poker. All sites have their big sunday tournement(s) with prizepool's that can change your life! I have a nice pokerday planned: I'll play the BLT(100K), sunday double deuce(200K) and the sunday 1,5 million on FT, the Noble poker sunday 200K and on Stars the sunday storm(1 million). I will also try to qualify for the 250K on PP and the 100K on players only. The sunday storm on Stars is really a good chance, such a low buy-inn for a 1th prize of 200K at least. I know there will be a few mobsters in that one( Flipped? and others)
I wish you all a nice and profitable pokersunday and let me know how your day will look like. Either way, Good luck to all

Wow, that's a lot of tournaments and a lot of potential profit. How much approximately will the entry fees be for all those combined?
I will be in the million dollar storm as well. I got a ticket through depositing with a promo code. My Stars ID is : "Shabadu, Joe" Say hi if you see me (hopefully on final table).
Do you play these tournaments regularly? Any tips for these massive tourneys? I have no experience playing against such monumental #'s (it was up to 25K people last time I checked).

poker sunday is looking good as said above i was down to $150 this morning due to my cracking BRM lol but i gave myself a slap and im a little over $1k and i also just won a ticket in a 27 seater sng for the sunday million I think that will do for me for the night i dont like to do to many tourneys i end up making silly moves so the million and the storm and maybe a little cash game on the side and i hope to be a half million $$$ up tonight if i am i will give all the fellow mobsters a tasty freeroll lol but i would not count on this but see how it gos would be nice to make a cash anyway GL

Hi flipped, too bad u diden't made it to the warm-up, try again today, i'm gonna have at try as well. Nice going with your bankroll @ Aritmajik: If i would also qualifify for PP, players only and the sunday warm-up it would be 1K+ combined. On Ft and Noble and the storm, i buy in, the rest i have to qualify. And yes i do play them every sunday, maybe i'll post a thread in wich everyone can talk about what MTT-strategies work for them, and i"ll post mine. The sunday storm will be packed, at least 120K+ players i think. I wish all of u gl in the storm and yes its almost to good a chance not to play, so see all u mobsters there. (Pokerstars ID is same as on BRM with 712 in the middle) Gl all

Well..reading this Í just decided to try and satellite into it.
I see there´s 2.000 seat GTD sat one hour before, will try that if I need to. Only have $9 left on PS, I haven´t played there in a long time and withdrew the rest (not much) a long while back.
40.000 runners already in the Storm! Gonna be some crazy stuff at the start, I guess. Hope I make it in!

hey jack that tourney just before it will be pretty crazy i think, prob like the one for the $5milllion i made it through that but with over 52k runners and an insane turbo you need a bit of luck! why dont you try the 45 seater sngs they are running with 4 entries or some of the point sngs they will be much easier to get in i think

Looks like my bad SnG streak that started yesterday is still in full swing today. I´m trying via 36-seat SnG´s, but still losing all face-offs when it comes down to it near the end.
Really kinda pissed now. Haven´t won 1 SnG since yesterday! Just lost half my stack in the second Sat to 2 callers on a 672 board with JJ. They BOTH hit trips. 777 and 666. Doesn´t look like I´m going to make it anywhere this way. Oh well... Worse comes to worse, I´ll keep $2.20 for that big Sat tonight.

@Jazzy: That would be an awesome thread, I'd be reading every word. I've placed high in a few 2k people tournaments but never consistently (this is an area of my game that definitely need marked improvement).
$1000 in tournament fees? Yikes you must have a sizable bankroll, and here I was happy with mine's meager growth the last few weeks.
In any case hope to see you on the final table (2nd place of course, shotgun 1st).

Wow, if I read these stories about all your tournaments I think I am wrong here in this forum, lol. I only have one account on Party Poker started 2 month ago and feel that I will never paticipate in such tournaments. But I wish you all the best luck

So I screwed up the Satellite as well. No Storm on PS for me.
Can´t get anything going for the moment. But good Luck Jazz in all your Tourneys. And to the others playing in the "Storm" 72000+ runners and counting...

Congrats on the decent finish Jazzy! I finished in 13355th for $22.75, I'll take it, that minimum finish pushed my roll just over the $300 mark, so I'm moving up in the world.

Tx guys, and congratz on your money finish. I finished 2900 something with luck though, i played like a fish while i was shortstacked and got lucky with it, to finally go out in a bad beat, guy pushed all-inn with 10 3, i called with AQ and he hits But i'm still in FT 1,5 million( 1600 left) and in the 25K superstack(prize pool is 90K, 1th is 20K) and only 20 left ! Wish me luck, i;m shortstacked
------------
AAaaagh chipleader with 12 left in the 25K, out the 1,5 million
------------
Lost with KK to AQ. 6 th position, 12 left.
------------
We've been with 12 left for over an hour now in 10th position

Yep , but still i was in a good position . When i was 1th, the number 1 and 9 were very close, i had 1,000,940 in chips, and number 9 had 780,000. So if u loose one hand(25K/50K Blinds and 50K ante) u drop instantly. For more than an hour the short stacks kept winning and positions changed like every minute, so i was very unlucky not to finish higher Very close, 20K for the winner, man Sorry for my complaining, still a bit frustrated by the really awfull time to loose with KK. How did u do, flipped?
