averick Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate Sorry to hijack slap but how will you be informed when they've credited the step 2 ticket to you account? And are all step 2s turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate Sorry to hijack slap but how will you be informed when they've credited the step 2 ticket to you account? If you sign in to the site, there's an option "Tournament Tickets" in the "Requests" menu, that tells you what tickets you've got and when you got them. I've been credited with my ticket now. And are all step 2s turbo? Yes. 5 minute blind levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

averick Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate Well done mate, thats impressive:clap Maybe I got this wrong but I see that you usually play the sunday warm up, do you have a specific preference for this tournament over the sunday million? (quality of field, tournament structure etc) Or is the main reason the starting time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate Just the starting time. I think the tournament structure is exactly the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie14 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate Have read thread with interest and had a wee go myself. After coming 3rd 3 times in a row for step 1 replays, finally got a step 2 ticket and won straight through to step 3 :nana. I notice that at step 3 you can play turbo (5 min blinds) or normal (10 min blinds). Any advice as to which is best way to go? :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advice as to which is best way to go? :unsure I always play the turbos, but I wouldn't say I'm convinced that's best. I just feel that if I have any edge over the average Step 3 player, it's probably in the high blind, shove or fold part of the tournament. I tried the normal ones a few times and didn't seem to do so well, but that was a tiny sample (two or three of them, I think), so it doesn't really mean anything.

slapdash Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate I've put my stats to date in post #1 of this thread, and will update after each run. Of course, they'd look less impressive if I included what I've lost in the Sunday Warmups I've spent Step 4 tickets on. :$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted February 7, 2010 Author Share Posted February 7, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate Starting run #14 ... Just one Step 3 ticket from the first four (of eight) Step 2 buy-ins. I'll use a Step 4 ticket for today's Sunday Warm Up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted February 7, 2010 Author Share Posted February 7, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate I'll use a Step 4 ticket for today's Sunday Warm Up. Finished 1033rd of 4900; about 300 places out of the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapdash Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 Re: Slapdash Steps Up To The Plate And I turned the three Step 3 tokens into one Step 4 token. That makes three Step 4 tickets and one Step 6 ticket remaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
