My problem:
PSO offers a bonus, where you, when cash $50 in at absolute poker, after 375 raked hands you get $125 free. quite a bargain.
my dilemma is, it only starts at NL25, but strangly they offer Fixed limit $.02/.04.
So I'd like to clear the 375 raked hands by playing SNGs. $1 or $2 short handed.

has anybody an idea how I can figure out how many tourney I need to play to clear the 375 raked hands?


thanks in advance

Why don't you just play 8 tables of 2c/4c limit?

You'll do it in about 40 minutes.

I had that idea too, but I heard a "raked hand" might only count from 25cts rake and more per hand.

edit:

I got it!

A raked hands needs $0.50 to be concidered as such.
And every $1 in trounament fees counts as one raked hand as well.
so it takes 188 $2 SNGs.

[Sneds]

It takes 188 $20 tournaments, assuming the tournament fee will be $2...

Just short stack $25 NL?

[Vince]

yeah of course $2 as stated above

I might try a combination of both. Since I predict I gonna increase my bankroll by beating the $2 games I might enter the cash tables than and play super tight short stack.

[Sneds]

But if you play the $2 games, then they only have a $0.20 tournament fee.

You need to pay $375 in fee's in order to release your $125.

So a typical $10 tournament will be : $10+$1

But you're not getting 10 raked hands out of that (for the buy in) That equals one raked hand (For the tournament fee or +$1)

So you need to be beating the $20+$2 games (= 2 raked hands) not the $2+$0.20 games.

really??
I thought the $2 were the entrance fee.

So it kinds sounds unbeatable within 60 days.
