ACR step 1

If you're in a step one at ACR you have to come in the top 113. Let's say there are two hours in and you're sitting on 7500 in chips. There's a guy at the table that keeps betting all in on every hand because he has 34,000 in chips, enough to coast. You pick up pocket kings under the gun. Do you limp and call his all-in or do you raise all-in first?

I probably limp and see what kind of action there is? How many remain? Where are the blinds? If there's 114 left I fold? Just depends on the situation.

I must have run into some of you this weekend. I have 3 step 2, 2 step 3s from the weekend. Squandered a step 3 all drunk on sat. night.

Fold KK if you can, shove if you need the chips to get clear.

Hi , you have to use the 1st one , after that you can sell them .


GLGL


What is the process to sell the tickets? I have several that I would sell for half price. Do you transfer them, or trade them in for cash?

You can only sell the $2650 Venom ticket as of right now. To do this, you and the other player who will be participating in the trade have to email the trade details to a specific email and both players have to agree.

Also, you cannot sell the first ticket you win into the Venom. You can only sell if you win more than one ticket.

Also, Good Luck to everyone who is still grinding from step 1! I think a rail thread should be made for everyone that made it in for free and is a CC member. Would be super cool to freeroll your way into a cool million.

I've had some luck myself and currently am sitting on a step 6/6 ticket. I guess next sunday I will see if I can get in. Wish me luck all!

Thats great info! Thanks, definitely something to shoot for! I'll be working on step 5 soon, going for my first, but honestly didn't even consider going for two and selling one. doh!

lol love the venom games

ya know i spend lots of time trying to roll my way into step 6 in all hopes to get in the venom final tables that i think i really need a break i mean,

one day i stayed awake all night and half the next day only to get knocked out of stage 4 just 2 before making stage 5

tbh i am still kicking myself for the all in with AK only to get beaten by A2
but it was ether that or the blinds and antis were going to put me out anyways

and being the next BB on the next deal there was probably hardly a chance that i would have gotten a better hand not to mention that there was a big bully at the table trying to take everyone out just so that the tournament would end faster lol
i dont blame him for that but since he did that i did it too one time after that and then in stage 2 the person that was small blind would always fold to allow me the chance to take the pot down if everyone else had folded to me it meant that you can be an aggressive player but that doesnt mean that you have to be a heartless player and i will never forget that and will help others who may be in the same position that i was in at that time.

Might as well try right! I'm sure you could flip a spare ticket for at least 2 grand.

Good luck , the best advice i can give for step 6 is what was given to me . Opt out of sharkscope a lot of bigger players buy in , you don't want to give them any free info . The most important thing is to not get bullied , if you have a good hand don't let them scare you off. I played 3 of these B4 i won a venom seat , hell i played 6 step 5 games B4 i won a step 6:D . Just play ur game , maybe play a lil more aggressively than normal , thats what helped me. Remember Don't get discouraged i you whiff this Sunday , you have plenty of time.

Best of luck :):):)

Right on, thank you for the advice! I've made 3 step 5's so far and this was the first time I placed. The late reg is killer for sure. I was all but locked up until 5-6 late reg snipers joined. Still got the ticket though. I'll let you know how it goes, hope to be joining you this July for free! What a dream.

Hard to start Venom Step 4

Why there're almost no players to play the latest steps of Venom Satellite (WPN)? For 1-3 steps, there's no problem to join the game. From step 4, it's almost impossible to start the tourney because of low traffic of players, sometimes you need to wait for several days. What's wrong with these sattelites? Come on people join in.
