Just a heads up. This promo is pretty easy to complete if you play 1$ sit and go heroes to do all the objectives.
Basically all you have to do is win 7 SnG Heros, along with some other stuff which you'll most likely do while trying for that. Then you'll get $50 in SnG hero tickets.

These missions are as never easy as they seem but this one does look pretty attractive and achievable. I am not really a Sit&Go player but i think that it is well worth a try and i will be having a go and hoping for the best

ok actually winning 7 sng hero's is doable, and on the end of this getting $50 worth of sng hero tickets is a decent promo, especially if you're into playing these games anyway, probably not tempting enough to make one who doesn't play these games to start playing em, but still a decent promo.
easy enough, I went out this mission ... played for $ 1 and task of the mission carried out easily enough .. Only 77 had to wait a bit ... but on the result of the games I was slightly up, and so I can recommend this Mission to everyone who likes to play sitngo .. in addition to games and more profit in the form of tickets

I wouldnt say it is a easy one. Having a bit of a bad day while you are after the requirements can lead to a loss. If you all get in your wins is just a double up then this is not hard, when you are after the seven wins you need to get.

This mission provides a favorable risk to reward ratio (RRR). So, it is definitely worth a try. And if you are solid, patient, level-headed and above average skillwise it won't be too difficult to fulfill the mission requirements. Good luck to all mobsters participating.

Mober, it's nearly impossible to lose doing this promotion if you're an average player (and even if you're not...)
I managed to complete all the objectives very quickly. I don't even think I won 7 sit & go heroes and I got it anyways which is weird. If I look at my tournament history, I've only won 5. But either way I would've completed it easily. I actually made 5$ profit while doing this and now I got 50$ in tickets
P.S. you have to check the "inactive tickets" in your account to be able to see SnG tickets. At first I thought I didn't get them.

This sounds a pretty cool promotion mission and the only issue I have is trying to find time to play poker at the minute with work (booooooooooooo) being what it is. So....off I go to do some more work and try and free up some time to play this god forsaken wonderful game that I would rather play than work.
I liked the action but that's what trouble: no ticket I did not bring the winning unfortunately ... maybe because when I played on the tickets, my game was more relaxed and concentrated on winning ... and we had to take a break and a bit ventilate the brain by fatigue

It took me about 40 minutes total so It's not too time consuming to do either
Considering you can start multiple sit and go heroes at the same time and you only start with 25 BB these games are pretty short. But yeah, this kind of format requires good position play and a good amount of agressivity.
"bricking" will most likely result in not winning, IMO.

playing less thn an hour to finish the requirements isnt bad at all. Of course the multitabling helps for it, but you probably got lucky too have you played the tickets that you won yet, cause you are not mentioning anything. If not good luck
Lost my 10$ tickets to suckouts. Both AIPF with the best hand. With A3o vs A8o for the bounty + huge chip lead (3 handed) guy hits his wheel on the turn. In the other one I get AKo on the SB, someone min raises UTG, agressive guy UTG +1 3bets to 160 I shove 600 (was chip leader) he calls with AQs and hits his Q. Would've been easy wins if I won those 2 hands. Both were 40$ prizepools.
Forgot how I lost the 5$ ticket but I remember I was ahead when the chips went into the pot! Was only a 10$ prizepool.
Atleast I managed to win a 55$ ticket with the 25$ one. Managed to bluff 3-4 pots and get paid when I had it... GL guys

Bad luck there. I didnt know that you can win tickets also, in these games. I thought it was like the rest ones. Gonna have a youtube search to see if they have such games. Good luck with the new ticket.
This promo is great. It took me sth around 90 minutes to get tickets. Last time I lost almost all my money on PP so I started with 4 $ and after mission I had 11$ and 4 tickets. 5 $ ticket - lost, 10$ nice spin (1000$ prize) I didn't win but I eliminated bounty for 250$ and get 75$ for 2nd place. So now I have almost 340$ and tickets 10$ and 25 $. Good luck 4all

Party usually has decent promos nowadays, they might be seeing some opportunity to scrape up some players who are dont like playing Stars no more so theres that.

It is good to know that many regular forum members have successfully completed the mission. Congratulations to all, especially to peesiks, who made an incredible return on his investment. Your achievement is an invaluable incentive for us.
Managed to turn my 55$ ticket into a 109$ carribean party poker phase 1 satellite ticket. Now I just have to win a 500$ ticket and then win the 6k package with it
I just hope I can sell the package to someone if I win it because I don't plan on playing such a big buy-in tournament. But if not I guess I would have to

A great result there peesiks. I guess you got very lucky with that draw of 1000$ And even if you didnt win that one you got a really nice profit, with two more tickets to go Congratulations icequeen too and machine. You may reach the big one after all Good luck.
Played my 109$ ticket other day. Started out well, managed to double up with KK all in pre flop against AJ somehow on the third hand. Lol
But about an hour later I got 66k chips I got dealt JJ blinds 400/800 with 80 antes. One of the smaller stacks (22K) at the table raises X3 UTG. I'm UTG+2 so I just 3bet to 6k. The player 2 seats on my left shoves 45k stack but I had a note on him and he was playing loose. His shove reps a premium hand but I don't believe it. Small stack calls so it gives me even better odds to call. I call, they both show AK and they flop an ace :9
Then I managed to rebuild my stack to 30k but quickly lost it with 1010 vs AQ AIPF.
Both AIPF with the best hand. With A3o vs A8o for the bounty + huge chip lead (3 handed) guy hits his wheel on the turn. In the other one I get AKo on the SB, someone min raises UTG, agressive guy UTG +1 3bets to 160 I shove 600 (was chip leader) he calls with AQs and hits his Q.
