Mansion 100K w/ huge overlay

#1 13-01-2007, 7:51 PM

Usually about 500+ people enter these things; $100 buyin, though there are $10 rebuy satellites I think (check the site to get more accurate details). They run daily at 3 AM GMT (I guess that's 10PM EST?)

There was a thread about this before, but the thread starter was spamming and I think it got deleted. I just wanted to post this for the MTT fanatics out there. This is the biggest overlay I've ever heard of and althought the buyin is huge, I'm considering moving some money over to their site to satellite my way into it.

Just a heads up.

Mansion sent out an email about them the other day, so I think they're trying to cut down on that overlay and get the MTTs more publicized. I've thought about buying in directly but $100 is a risk... could be worthwhile, though. Mainly I wasn't sure when 3:00 a.m. GMT was and didn't get around to investigating. Thanks for the tip!

I'll answer that ? with a ?:
Where else can you find a ~50K overlay with $100 buyin and so few entrants?
I'm no MTT enthusiast but this sounds like a very rare overlay that probably won't last long...

oh :P

I think that basically any tourney with an overlay like this needs to be taken advantage of...look at PS's last sunday's mil for example; they had no overlay. There were 7000 entrants which made for a ~1.4M, 400K more than the guaranteed prize pool.

Overlays are just plain +EV, and they're pretty rare. Titan had some decent overlays for their size tourneys when US was banned, and I was on those like flies on shit.

An overlay like that is pretty nice. The Bodog 100K tourney used to have that kind of overlay a couple years ago. Might have to sign up for Mansion...
