Wow! Never seen MOBSAFE go 5 days without being cracked! Is anyone trying? Real question, isit wise to buy extra shots? Probably a bad thread, but curious!

To me anything above $5.00, but I've been playing for 4 months in my entire life. Have totally fallen for the game and this BRM site. Love the threads / members. Have learned a lot reading BRM poker strategies and members threads.
Weather here is terrible! Also, wet and cold 3 C / 34 F. Can't take it. Been spending a lot of time here on BRM. You have a great job / do a great job in my eyes. Envious! Thanks for the reply!

Yeah I won a bit over a few $k's in a single tournament once, being the last man standing, actually won the last hand with pocket aces, so that was cool. But it's a bunch of years ago.

That's great! In my eyes. I play in the $0.10 to $1.00 games in FT and have placed, but no top 3's other then winning in 1st in chip games. Play a lot of the chip games for practice and not ready for SNG's or anything above a $1.00 games. Again, thanks for reply and will keep reading the threads. Think BRM is great!

Practice is what it takes - and practice requires times. If you don't practice, you depend too much on luck and that might not benefit you in the long run So hopefully some of our no deposit bonuses will be able to help you out, although you're from the US so the options there are quite limited at the moment

Green, am i right in thinking that on FT the tournies you are talking about are rather sparse?? May i recommend trying Pokerstars? For one reason only, they offer 10c 360man turbo mtts and 25c ( no fee ) 45 and 90 man mtt's, which are GREAT for practice AND building a roll for very little risk. They run 24/7 and there are a load of them going on :]] Itll give you a place to play more, whilst also giving you the opportunity to win, and learn :]

Shoveandtilt; Thanks for the input! Deeply appreciated! After reply I will download pokerstars and give them a try. Only reason I haven't tried other sites is due to my inexperience, but your right. More play, practice, etc. can only help. Deeply appreciated! Thanks
------------ Far as limitations in the U.S. I'm not involved to the degree that I fully know what you mean, but understand somewhat based on reading posts, etc. Maybe it'll get better! Thanks for reply and the practice will continue.

as shoveandtilt said - if you do the maths - $50 is EV-+ to buy shots (it's even money) - and anything >$50 is EV+ to buy shots (over time you'll make money - like a casino - you'll have a mathematical edge).

jessthehuman; see your point and it's a good one. Slow me had to think about it. Also, only been a member for little over a month and only play the one free crack at the MOBSAFE every day. First I've seen $70.00. I probably miss it lot due to work. Thanks for reply!

^ NPS - it's gone over $100 a few times also.. Admin could tell you the record - i think it's about $130 from memory..
But around 50-80 is relatively common..
Interestingly enough - it actually costs bankrollmob LESS each consecutive day it goes up.. Every time somebody guesses it correct - it is reset @ $20 - and this can happen multiple times a day - whereas - if no one guesses it- it only goes up $10 a day...

So what you're saying, we should lower it to start at just $10 when it resets?
this is too funny
