| 70fpp Stars sat - How to play them ? I have played two of these now and both time I lost them in heads up. (Only 1st gets a $11 ticket to the 200 grand. $T!) Both times I was a dominating chipleader when it was down to 3. Both times I had around 9k. And still I can't seem to win them . When it gets to HU we were both times even in chips. The first time because I screwed up and the second because he took out the 3rd guy. So it's 7k - 7k and I can't win ! Today I had KJ on a QATQ9 board. I bet every street and we end up all in on the river. Ofcourse he turns over Q9 and I'm stumped as to why I keep losing these things in HU ! Any tips about how to play them ? Tips in general and especially the HU part are appreciated. |

| You've played 2, and you haven't won any? LMAO, you must be the worst player ever! You are going to need a chunk of luck to win one of these - if you play tight early, you'll be in the last 3 or 4 with a fraction of the 1st places player's chips. If you play loose early, you'll probably be gettign your chips in with the worst of it. You just need to be realistic - you won't win more that 1 out of 6 of these - yes the standard of play is bad, but bad players run hot and catch cards. I'd just open up 4 of them at the same time, and hope for a bit of luck. And heads up, you need to get all the chips in with KJ on a QATQ9 board, end of. Strange though, i've lost the last 3 times i've flopped a straight/flush at pokerstars (and i didn't slow play). |

But I did get HU in both and still lost. That's what lead me to believe something is wrong with my play. In general I'm not very strong in HU. Back when I played sng's on a regular-ish basis I guess I won it 50/50 when getting HU. I don't know how to react to some type of styles. Like people who reraise almost every time I raise from the button. After a while I get frustrated and will shove and get called by a monster . I have the same problem in 3 handed play. |

| i have found the best way to use your FPPs ...is the sunday 2 grand found in the VIP tab...its a 2k NLHE freeroll...usually about 2000 entrants which means it pays 450...usually good play after the first 2 levels...its a freeroll so naturally there are a few reckless players to begin with....but after that its a fairly easy cash with the potential high payoff once the play is ITM |
