| | | Amazing value for FPP on 'stars
If you play the 70FPP turbo SNG's for an $11 entry into the Saturday "Hundred Grand" tournament, you receive nearly $0.018 in value for each FPP. (Books and such are about $0.01 per FPP)
This is just a straight equity split, it doesn't include any edge you may have over 70FPP players. A godsend for broke idiots like me.
You high rollers who play those $4.40 tournaments might do well to just open 6 or 8 of them and play cookie-cutter poker to extract $T from your FPP.

I think I'm going to burn the rest of my FPPs tonight. I will just run two at a time. That should be a good "triumphant return" to online poker as I've already won $T11 and have about 7 tournaments left. I can go ahead and call that a day.
I'll figure out what to do with my new bankroll tomorrow. Quote: |

No, don't blame him...AT is a premium hand in those things. I was leading with about $8400 to $6000 ...went all in...down to $1800 with blinds at $200/400...dealt Td2d in bb...flop came Q,T,3....he held JT...
GAME OVER

what's sick is that you can decimate these things following, "Get on top and stay there!" Throw away your buyin on AJ and suck out on two people? Time to tighten up and let them cannibalize each other.
I'm getting some good suckouts and a decent amount of starters but this is insanely soft. Definitely the best value for your FPP. Just multitable the holy pope out of them and you'll make some $T.

I played a few of them, and in each of them we were down to 7 handed play within the 1st two hands. Sadly, 2nd place was the best I could put together before I gave up on them. I'll just keep blowing 50FPPs at a time in the Sunday 2k I guess  |

I was so psyched to play one of these since I want to try the 100K, but don't have any money on Stars. Beat: I only have 60 FPPs after wasting my pts on Greenstein's book.

End result: $T44.00 for 12 tournaments, AKA 840FPP.
So I've set the high mark at $0.052380952 per FPP.
Someone go on a serious heater and bust the hell out of that number! This is good return for your past play!

I just played one and won it. Great fun!
If you win one, your total amount earned per FPP is $.157 . Pretty good for investing all of 25-30 minutes at the most!
Thanks for the heads up! I hope these stay around for a while!
