FT Matrix competition?

#1 27th October 2008, 6:53 AM

Just wondering if anybody would be interested in doing a Matrix competition on Fulltilt? I was thinking we could get a pool going and then the person with the highest matrix score would win the pool. We could go for a week playing as many games at whatever buy in a person wanted to play. A screen shot for proof. Just an idea.

I have tried 1 and liked it, but u cant b multi taskin while in them. they r very fast paced. I'ld b game.

dont like the pool idea , or playin as many as some1 wants , thats not fair to people who have to work. I think it would work better if the winner moved on to the next game

not me donkfest IMO only played it once but there were many all ins every hand , which may be the strategy but didn't care for it and am not to good at multi tabling . I got a 1st and a 2nd in the last two after the first two were done but barely got my money back and only made 5th in the matrix . but if you get something going I'll rail and root for you

thanks wolf for not playing while driving

Thought they would make for a good private tournament, but I doubt that's an option. I don't like them for NL, but I'd be up for HORSE.

not drivin at all rite now Jay, the company the hubby and I worked for went belly up. so I pulled out the whip and made the hubby go drivin by himself. .... I dont know if they will allow any private matrix at this time , I,m sure they will in the future, and yea when I played I barely doubled my buy in

This isn't to start a competition but thought it was a good score. Can anyone beat it just for fun.

Surprisingly enough... Yes I can. The competition has been finished even before it got started.

That's impressive. 2 1st's and 2 2nd's. 7 KOs in match 1 alone. Very nice score, you must have sacraficed a slot machine player to the poker gods before hand

Well done, mogadown. The first one I played, one player took first in all of them. I think my highest score was 49 in HORSE, but I haven't been playing them since I only see the $1 HORSE filling up fast enough to wait.

#11 7th November 2008, 2:01 AM

I have actually won all 4 at the $1 level. Can't remember the points off the top of my head however. I would indeed be interested in running with the big dogs in this competition.

Thanks for the replies guys, but Alon isn't asking how you like the Matrix SNGs overall, he's asking if anyone would be interested in a side competition.

Just posting this because this thread has gotten a bit off track from the OP's question. Let's rerail it.

Sure. Matrix are brilliant. i think its easier to win money on them but not as much profit as other games

We should definetely make a MATRIX tourny on full tilt..The winner from the matrices would VS each other..I'm sure alot of people would join it..Just an idea..But I like matrices and I have very good experiences with them so I will continue to play them..Take Care

Thanks, D'wilius, for the pointer to this thread.

wow 52?!?!
i thought 45 was a lot. thats the most ive gotten but i dunno how to pull it off the screen and put it on to here.
nice score though

i don't think you'll have many takers on this since a lot of people would be hesitant on the fact that some people may just photoshop a win.

I've become addicted to these again, just been playing a few $1 and $2 last couple days. Made 2nd best posted score so far, it was either 52 or 54, the lobby closed so fast that I'm not sure, sorry. Just a drinkin' and a shovin' finished 1116-1.

...btw KOs are super important, had a 1123-1 other day and only scored 35.

#19 21st January 2009, 3:15 PM

i wouldnt mind getting involved in a matrix game.

#20 21st January 2009, 8:26 PM

Maybe we could get a matrix league going, where we post a game going every night, and however many cc get into that game can earn points. Then we'd add up the points after couple weeks for an overall winner.

These don't fill up that fast at Tilt, if we started entering an empty one while another was already filling, could possibly get a full cc table, surely 6+ anyway.
