glceud Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Re: PokerStars Guiness Book of Records Attempt Max entrants 35000 so definately a nice overlay:loon Ive got a new and very complex formulae for working out overlay. It involves the added ammount, the number of players, the time expected to reach the money the total table time of all players divide this by the cost of extra ciggys smoked and alchohol consumed and you get estimated overlay of 6 cents an hour here. Think I.ll give it a miss:unsure Whats the old record anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Intensity Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Re: PokerStars Guiness Book of Records Attempt Whats the old record anyway? Taken from pokernewsdaily.... Verification of a new accolade takes about six weeks and is conducted out of Guinness’ home offices in London. Last August, PokerStars ran a similar tournament that boasted an $11 buy-in and offered a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool. In that event, 20,000 players turned out, which PokerStars claimed was the largest cash tournament ever held at the time. PokerStars member Lynna1 pocketed $20,000 for first place. http://www.pokernewsdaily.com/pokerstars-to-hold-world-record-tournament-818/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
