It's a freeroll on SO at 7pm every day - used to be good value, however, is now very poor value and overrun with colluding hungarians!!! I don't play it any more - there are far better tournaments out there if you want to play regular freerolls..... (at 7pm there is a $400 P4E freeroll which probably represents better value - though that isn't that great) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I speak to the guys I recognise from here, but some of them I'm thinking, "The name's familiar....but". So I keep quiet, then F-T turns up and it turns out the whole table are PLers. :$ :$ :$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaF Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Re: Sporting Odds Dollar Up MTT Tourney - February Interesting battle for the Wooden Spoon ...... are any of the players on 2 games brave enough to show? If not it's a battle for Bladesrgoingup with e4sby!!! Remember, after the next game, only those with at least 3 games are in contention for the wooden spoon!!! And the trophy?? Mr V can't afford to relax, but could there be a more popular winner? Only if Pene snatches it ;). It is by no means a 2 horse race though ........ morl and Paul can still snatch it :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e4sby Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Re: Sporting Odds Dollar Up MTT Tourney - February I'll have to hope for a better performance to avoid the wooden spoon! Never really do well in the dollar up, only had 1 top ten finish in 20 attempts! Plenty of practise i think over the weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweetypie05 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Re: Sporting Odds Dollar Up MTT Tourney - February Hi guys, Was playing in this comp. on Wednesday but got knocked out just before the bubble... frittering chips away :wall ... who won? Any hints on getting to that elusive final table???? Always seem to be chasing chips to stay in... playing too tight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Re: Sporting Odds Dollar Up MTT Tourney - February TweetiePie - :welcome to the Lounge :okIs difficult to give general advice, without knowing more about the way you play, however, the one piece of good advice that applies to almost everyone, for tournaments like this, is invest in a copy of Harrington on Hold'em Volumes 1 and 2 ....... these books are very good and will almost certainly improve your game and your results :okYou say you "fritter chips away" - that makes it sound like you get involved in too many pots when you don't have a hand (i.e. you are loose), and maybe that you are too passive (i.e. you call more often than you raise). If you are struggling with your game then I think it is good advice to step back to a tight (i.e. play few starting hands) aggressive (i.e. try and raise 3-5 times the BB more often than you flat call) game.Hope that helps :okIf you let us know your alias on Sporting Odds, then we can add you to the league table :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
