GaF Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Re: mansion value I've played in pretty much all of these - it's playing havoc with my sleep!!!! And my bank balance :sad Is a terrible structure, no time at all, and not really had a good game yet :sad I'm $700 down in them :loon :loon, but keep telling myself that they are good value really :loon :loon (not as bad as it sounds - still had the £500 they gave me for an Am Football bet, and won $750 at SpOdds last week - can I pretend I'm up?)

Burnley Joe Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Re: mansion value Finished 183 went all in for 2500, 4 callers!!!!!!!!!!! My hand stood no chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viggosen Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Re: mansion value Man I went out as nr 57, the money started with nr 54. I had a tough decision, I had 8300 in chips BB 800 SB400 40 ante. Average about 14000. The cutoff was a complete maniac, he had gone all-in 6 times in a row prior to that hand, Had beeen called couple of times and had shown hands like Q5o, but won some both times he was called. I´m BB and I have A5o maniac have me covered should I fold, for a very good chance to advance 3 spots and take down 500 $ or go for it? A5 is about 57% against all other hands, and since maniac has gonve all-in 5-6 times in a row he will make that move with anything in cutoff. If I call the pot will be 8300*2+ 400SB+ 7*40 (antes form the players) = 17240. So in terms of chip EV I get 17240*0,57=9827. I will have 8300-800-40 =7460, left if I fold, So calling is 2367 +EV in terms of chips, about 30% of what I will have left if I fold. Is it worth giving up so much Chip EV, for a place in the money? I called he showed T7o, he ended up with a full house!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glceud Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Re: mansion value Whats the problem with the structure? 2500 starting chips 12/15 min levels looks ok from here. Or are the blinds 100/200 in level one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Re: mansion value No - it's 1500 starting chips and quite a fast blind structure....... I'm too embarrassed to say how I went out last night - I feel my "natural" game doesn't work with such a fast structure, so have been trying to compensate and playing a game I'm not very good at :$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Re: mansion value Ah - see what you mean glceud - from tonight it's a different structure :nana :cow :nana :cow But if I don't get knocked out so quickly, when will I sleep? :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viggosen Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Re: mansion value well the blind structure is fast to begin with start at 1500 chips and 12 min levels for the first hour then it slows down to 15 min levels and there is 2 levels with 200/100 the second with 10 antes. So you need to get lucky the first 1 hour-1½ hour and double up, but if you can do that the structure is ok. I don`t know why it just says 2500 starting chips with 15 min levels on the site. Or maybe they will change the structure tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnley Joe Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Re: mansion value Lost most of my stack straight after the break, god i hate this game Just seen a bloke go all in for 5K with JJ get called by table leader on 11K who had 3 2 Diamonds, yeah you guessed it two pair, 3s and 2s takes it down! Out 247th Last one for me that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viggosen Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Re: mansion value well, it is a bit expensive to put in 100 $ a day, but here is both good value from the overlay, plus there must be some value in all those player coing allin with crap alltime, and those who call with it, those fish can`t get lucky all the time. I think I will try it a few times more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Re: mansion value Hmmmm ..... have to say my impression is slighly different - I get the feeling I'm just being totally outclassed in this tourney :unsure I just seem to be being outplayed and outthought in every hand I enter (whether they have a hand or crap, they seem in total control of me) :unsure I wish they were just "players going in with crap all the time"......

Even when I'm not at your table? :tongue2 I've only played in two of these (soon after I'd got back from abroad and was "naturally" awake at 3am), and although I did pretty badly in both of them, I didn't get the feeling I couldn't do well. But you've played a lot more of them, so you may have a better idea of the standard. So have they changed the blind structure? And does it make a big difference?
