The $0 rake is nice but I would think the $200+$15 $750k on Stars would be a way better deal. The structure sounds neat but who wants to waste that much money and time when they could be playing in the 750k or even the $500+$30 1mil guaranteed

Wow, I had no idea that Stars had such good tournaments. Do they run those monthly? If I had the bankroll, skill, and time for these events I'd buy Virtual PC for the old mac and fire up Stars.

what you need to realize is the guanteed prize pool money often becomes irrelivant, since there are always enough players to not only cover it but increase it.

but I agree 1000 buy in and 500k guarenteed is only 500 people to break even, i wonder would this site get it?

gotta love the blind structure though

The blind structure is very nice, as is the Rake Free... It's tempting, but I think I've bought into enough $1000 tourneys for a little while...
