Anyone try these 990-player mtt sngs? DO NOT play them if you're in a bad mood or expect good play - you start with only 500 chips, blinds increase very rapidly and the ante starts at 10 on first hand and it increases rapidly also.

But for a penny -- it's a blast if you're in the mood to play a round of what essentially is "all-in or fold".

If you only have a few dimes from some freeroll or other, give it look.

Absolute waste of time. If you WIN you get $2.20. If you are playing that micro of stakes, you should play the .10 cent 330 player sngs instead.

Gotta disagree here.... the 10-centers are donkfests at least until the first break, except that people get extraordinarily pissy about that fact, as if they actually expect the average player who's paying a dime for a chance at a cut of $36 is going to be a serious player.

You guys are way to serious, anyway! The spirit of the 1-centers is by nature mayhem - as I noted in the original post, you don't want to play them if you're not just killing 30 minutes for a penny. You certainly can't play a serious tourney in 30 min.

I am joining a 1 cent and 10 cent right now at the same time just to see which one I place better in. The to me is better than the FR for a ticket BS that run on PS.

I finished early in the 1 cent. Near the money in the 10 cent. I think we should have a challenge to build a roll from nothing but 1 cent games

LOL

They can be a laugh if you want to pass a bit of time and only got a couple of quid, very small prize money tho,
better off with the freerolls (100$) full tilt eg.

What a bad payout structure... 25c for finishing 7th that's not so hot. Too top heavy IMO.

Ha, I play tourneys like these whenever I already AM steaming to let off steam by going all in every hand. Does the trick, since the results do not matter...but going all in is FUN!
