#1 2nd July 2007, 1:05 AM

$10,000 HU and $10 buy in tournament with $100K GTD prizepool

#2 2nd July 2007, 1:09 AM

stake me

#3 2nd July 2007, 1:20 AM

Me likey the Sunday hundred grand. I'll donk some chips away in that sucker for sure.

#4 2nd July 2007, 1:28 AM

The 10K heads-up should be a lot of fun to watch...great moves by PokerStars yet again.

#5 2nd July 2007, 1:36 AM

10 minute blinds in the 100K guaranteed?

Wish it was at least 15 minute levels, the 10 minute levels will make it just too much luck with that type of field size. Hope they change that.

I'll be adding dead money tp these myself, I'm sure.

#7 2nd July 2007, 3:08 AM

that $10+1 (100K) guarantee looks like a pretty good value thats for sure.....probably 15,000 + entries....the problem is that 1st will barely be 13 or 14% (sigh) but you have to figure 1st place will hit near the 20K mark...no brainer tourney for 11 bucks

That's how most of their $10 tourneys are set up

max 15,000 entries, 12.6% for first if it fills up. If you don't want it, I will take it off your hands

#10 2nd July 2007, 3:42 AM

There goes $11 every week.

me too thats great

#12 2nd July 2007, 11:11 PM

The $11, hundred grand GTD already has about 2600 registered. I would not be surprised at all if this thing gets the max 15,000 people in it.

#13 2nd July 2007, 11:22 PM

I satelited in for $2!

#14 2nd July 2007, 11:24 PM

Winning the Sunday hundred grand is like winning the WSOP :P

#15 2nd July 2007, 11:26 PM

For 70FPP there is a 10-man turbo sit and go, first place gets to go to the sunday hundred grand......I'm gonna be in a few of those :P

Saw you post this and just entered one and took it down. Some of the worst play i've ever seen was in that sng. The standard raise in these things is push.

I went into one (stupid me for ordering a few of those stress balls and only had 137 FPP left) and got the first big hand down. Playing super tight with only 5 people left and I decided to take a stab at a pot with my pocket Aces (lol) and then of course the guy hits 2 pair.....I lost the hand and I went all in with AQos and lost....

#18 3rd July 2007, 3:07 AM

The buyin is 11 bucks, why waste FPPs on a donk fest trying to........save 11 bucks. They're also running 1 & 2 dollar sattys, to a $10 dollar tourney? I don't get it; if you wanna play, put the crowbar in yer wallet and play. Use yer FPPs for stressballs or whatever.

I played the same satelite that you did. 1 seat for every 5.5 people is pretty good for a satelite. It was pretty soft, easy to win your seats.

When I signed up this aft. the field was up to around 3700 already; it's gonna fill up fast. I predict there'll be an overlay.

If it fills up fast there WONT be an overlay. It will get 10k Players easy. No overlay

#22 3rd July 2007, 6:53 AM

10K players meets the guarantee...it holds 15K (and will reach that easily)

12.6% for 1st with 15,000 players = $18,900

not a bad way to spend 10 bucks

#23 3rd July 2007, 1:33 PM

There'll never be an overlay in that thing.

I can tell you right now I won't be playing in it. I don't have the patience to sit through 7 hours of play (sigh 15K people).

#24 3rd July 2007, 3:28 PM

I think I'll give it a go once or twice

Well, for me, I don't have much money on stars. My BR is predominantly on Full Tilt. Plus I don't really care about stress balls and such. I'd rather have tmoney to use to try and build a BR there again without depositing or transfering funds from tilt.

#26 3rd July 2007, 5:30 PM

I think these 70FPPs are probably an easy way to convert FPPs into T$, which can boost the bankroll nicely.

#27 5th July 2007, 7:50 PM

Already up to $105K. GG overlay.

#28 6th July 2007, 1:42 AM

Does overlay mean over the $100k guaranteed? Or what?

#29 6th July 2007, 1:57 AM

If a tournament has an overlay that means there is dead money put in by the poker site.

Say there was a $100 Buy in tournament with a $1000 GTD prizepool, if only 7 people bought in, then the prizepool would have an overlay of $300.

#30 6th July 2007, 2:00 AM

That was my first thought, but I thought that OVERlay sounded like it would be what I posted. Thanks for clearing that up.

#31 6th July 2007, 3:09 AM

12,000 registered. If you want to play you better register soon.

#32 6th July 2007, 6:46 AM

I dunno, I think if it has 15000 ppl, the whole thing might not last more than 5 hours.

I could be way off here, but with the 10 minute levels, and the amount of terrible players it might go pretty fast...kind of like a Freeroll.

By first break, expect 3,000 people left if not less....

#34 6th July 2007, 10:24 AM

Ohhh I might have to actually play for real money online again...and still lose ...weeeeeeeeeeeeee.

#35 6th July 2007, 11:37 PM

I would say that this things lasts over 10 hours easy.
