that MM 2.5 thing

let me tell you Kurn earned every penny he is going to win for just grinding his way through the first round. UGH! Started with 4377 - down to around 900 - i am in the middle. Talk about a tourney grind!

(btw - not looking for any railbirds - that is why i posted this here)

yeah I finished like 89th in one of those once...

that is a horrible feeling, I havent played another one since.

Yeah, that would be a bit frustrating to get that deep and have nothing to show for it.

Can you imagine finishing 51st in this thing?!?!

ive played 1, the turbo one, came 900th. If u survive round 1, you have a 1 in 4 shot normally of hitting rd 3.

i played one at night got 67th, i was 4th place in chips, yes 4th, and there was a very big stack at my table that played very loose, i ended up losing all my chips to him with my QQ vs his 84, flop came 8xx, 8 bein top pair, and he called all my bets, til river came 8 and i bet he raised i called and i was crippled, i had no idea y he would call with 84, i raised preflop too, i was pretty sure i would make it, til that happend

either he has this or the definition of crippled wrong.

Thanks. The one I ended up making it from had 6200 runners. I played 4 others prior to that one. The first I made it through 2/3 of the field, the other 3 I busted pretty early.

I ended up busting out at around 350ish or so - maybe a little higher. I might fire up another one or two (heck, they are only 10 FPPs) and just sort of run them in the background. Seems to be worthwhile to wait for a big hand early and gamble with it as people are pretty aggressive-loose early on.
