Oh-Oh....i'm hooked...

[bbor]

Just finished playing in my first sit n go at pokerstars and i finished 2nd.

Now where did i put that credit card??? :)

[Draft Dodger]

how do sit n gos work?
(or is it sits n go)?

[SirFozzie]

tourneys are always going. Once the amount of people hits the # (9 for a 1-table or 18 for a 2-table), the tourney begins and another one opens up and takes it place.

[Draft Dodger]

ok, that's a bit addictive.

finished 5th in mine, but had a lot of fun.

what levels of SnG does Pokerstars offer? Is the smallest level 5+1 like Party?

[SirFozzie]

correct.

I believe it's

$5+.50
$6+.50 (Turbo)
$10+1
$20+2
$30+3
$50+5
$100+10
$500+50

I am at work (back again, despite being one armed still) so can't confirm this.

Seeing how much I own bbor in fantasy sports, I think it's time he and I sat down for a friendly game of high stakes poker... ;)

Thanks Fozzie - maybe I should play at PS instead of Party - are there any signup programs for PS like there are for Party where you can get x$ free by going through a certain site?

Both sites have their advantages and disadvantages, but my recommendation is to stay at Party. To answer your question, PokerStars very rarely runs a reload bonus, and doesn't offer a sign-up bonus. Stars does have a better tournament structure, but the free money from Party, more than makes up for it.....

You gonna play in the sunday night game bbor?

What time?

I may be persuaded to kick the wife out of bed for a few hours to play.Actually,she is really interested in learning how to play and has actually gone to a few ladies poker nights with her freinds to try to learn.She also watches WPT religeously to try and pick things up.This is good for me!:D

Dola...Jeebs i'm even worse at poker than i am at fantasy sports.


BTW you are KILLIN in the golf pool...good job(Bastard) :D

[JeeberD]

Well, I'm killin you...I'm only up by 30 points on the guy behind me.

Oh, and I'm MUCH better at fantasy sports than poker. I have little doubt that you could kick my rear at the table...

[JeeberD]

had a fun time today - after doing decently in that first one, I did 2 more and just got totally slaughtered.

decided to give it one more try and had a blast. Was doing great early - was the early chip leader for probably the first half. Then I took a couple of losses, and by the time we were down to 5 players, I was shortest stack at $800. Went all-in and won, and then again - within about 5 hands I was the chip leader by far and had knocked to people out to guarantee 3rd. Ended up head's up with a 3 to 1 chip advantage, but I didn't play it well and ended up 2nd - all things considered, I'll happily take that,

[klayman]

Damn. I thought Taco Bell had introduced a new menu item. :(

[bbor]

Woohoo...just won a sit n go:D
