Posted by damosk: Wow! $30 gone flash. While I thought you would fail, (sorry) I thought you might at least cash in a couple or so of them. Pretty hard going. Have you done any analysis of your play and where you could have done better? Don't let the $30 just go, but benefit in terms of improving your play!
Nah its all bingo. If i could look up my losing hands and post them i would. Ppl push and call with everything so suckouts are constant. 4max 500 chips with 25/50 starting blinds and 10ante. Any ace 10j+ any pocket pairs were being pushed. Ive also lost to hands like j6 q3s ect. Need to get pretty lucky to win the 4 shootouts.i dont mind losing tbe 30$ it kept me entertained and figured i wiuldnt make it anyways. I was a little confident after coming 6th the second game but after playing more and watching how bad the play was i knew i wouldn't make it. i think if it were like the 6max hypers or 180man hypers with 10/20 starting blinds and no antes it wouldnt be as hard a challenge since ppl have time to select hands and not forced to push after every rotation or two.

This kind of tournaments is not poker its just bingo game. You have to shove with almost any cards and hope that luck will be with you.
Its like an allin shootouts thats why i never play this kind of game cause luck is the name of the game and since i am not that lucky i just forget that.
Congratulation to you it was an almost impossible challenge and you tried it but were not lucky enought.

LOL.... I played one of them tonight just to see what it was like and agree that it's not poker it's just toss anything at anything and hope it sticks. Pretty good outcome if you can get the stuff to stick and get to the final table. Good luck to anyone who plays them.

Yup its a complete rodeo ride see who can hang on the longest. I really dont think putting any strategyto use would help u. Sure we can be a favour to win in hands but havta get really lucky to win every allin hand.
Best way too get into the Million is the 10 1000 seats GTD deadline turbo tournament on March 8th. Good format with 1500 chips starting chips and blind's up every 5 minutes will give it a go 1 in 21 chance of a ticket GL.

I have just lost nearly all of my chips (and I had plenty of them) in the weekly round 2 Saturday (NL Holdem) tournament. I called KK from under the gun and got a small raise. I reraise and the raiser went all in, exactely what I wanted. But unfortunately he had AA.
