Ya, I was trying to decide what strategy is ideal under this promotion. I mean, do you limp-call hoping to get them cracked, or do you do what I always do and get my money in pre-flop and lose? At least by pushing, you still have ~ 80% chance to double up, and when you lose ~ 20% of the time, you get $10 back... so your EV is awesome! Of course, for me it's more like 40% win and 60% loss, but that's because the math gods are still punishing me for getting 98% in grade 13 calculus. Stupid karma...

So, the next question is, how much should I buy in for at the $25NL tables? If I buy in (and keep topping up) for $10, then I can't lose, right? I mean, if I push and bust, I get my money back... and if I push and win, I win $10 (assuming 1 opponent), so I have a purely positive result - never lose a chip!

This deal could get my average with AA back in the black! Unfortunately, I'm busy today/tonight, and most of the weekend, so I'm not sure I'll have a chance to play before the deal expires!
