GaF Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 This weeks Sunday Roast at Stan James has a doubling of the prize pool to $5100 after the cancellation last week, BUT they have also removed the raked hands requirement - JUST FOR THIS WEEK. Should be a good freeroll :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmuzeman Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast Whats the number of entries usually around for this? Is it a BIG freeroll? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast Whats the number of entries usually around for this? Is it a BIG freeroll? It usually has 100 raked hands requirement - so is quite low I think ...... For this weekend, I don't know what it will be - but I dont get the impression that Stan James have a huge user base - my best guess would be 1000 to 1500 :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaded Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast Totally agree with Uber's strategy - I remember doing well in a couple of freerolls using this strategy, and crashing out of a couple of hundred when I got bored with it too quickly... Edit: Just registered and seen that it's a maximum of 6000 players, nearly $1 per player even if it fills - wow!! :) :) :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted August 26, 2006 Author Share Posted August 26, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast even if it fills It won't ;) 362 in so far - would be surprised if it reaches 1000!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the croc Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast crap.....you were re raised and called with nothing,then you risked another 700 on a gutshot.got lucky sure but no wonder you got a mouthfull.....

SullDaBull Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast My thoughts too. I thought perhaps he was on a steal too pre-flop. If the ten hadnt come I'd have run away with my tail between my legs on cursing myself for playing cack poker. But......the guy is still hammering me from the rail over an hour later. :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tax_Monkey Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast IMO you played this terribly from the start. 1st) If your going to steal you need to raise more then 2BB unless you've got a monster (in which case you want a call) 2nd) When you got re-raised you should have thrown it. 3rd) Although you've flopped a gutshot and outside flush draw his bet doesn't give you the odds to call by my reckoning you should have raised more pre-flop to steal, folded pre-flop after the re-raise and folded to the post flop bet. like I say just my opinion:ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SullDaBull Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Re: StanJames Sunday Roast I quite agree. Just one of those hands I guess. Not really like me to go for the gutshot either. I was getting ready to get mad for playing like a dick until the 10 came out. I wont be making a habit of it thats for sure. Welcoming the feedback guys.

But then again I would have probaly never tried the steal in the first place with 6-9 (suited or unsuited) :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
