Looks like you are 3 spots from shipping another package, aka $15k cash. That should help with your Atlantis expenses a bit.

GL!

I have yet to play one of these, but see there is a 30 seat guarantee next weekend. I'll probably play that. Any other recommendations for specific tourney to try this week?

ya thanks, won another.....2 in 5 tries...and bubbled another one cause I'm an idiot.


Not sure what you mean by specific tourney to try?

If you mean to get into the $700 qualifier.....there's not that many options. I think Stars has very few options to get into it, imo.

They have very few $80 freezeouts...and have a bunch of 10r to get into it. The 10r are a bit of a crap shoot...not that many seats..and turbo.

Stars has like a bunch of $204 hyper turbo right before it starts. I've gotten into the $700 playing these most of the time. These are pretty high variance....I've spent like 816 to get in last week, but I think there's value....of course it's better to not wait last second to play these to enter....as they can be pretty tilting if you lose several in a row.

The only other feasible option is to play steps until you reach step 5 then use the ticket to get into the $700.

Nah, I meant alternatives to the $700. I'll either play a tilting hyper-turbo or four next week, or just buy into it. I was just wondering what other direct qualifiers people liked. Honestly though, I feel better about my chances in a "30 seat guarantee" than I do in a winner take all tourney, so I'll probably just take one shot at this next Sunday.

There's only a few direct routes I know:

$33r 3x-turbo
$55r 2x-turbo
$100r
Steps
$700
weekend 30k FPP (you can satellite into the 30k)
There's also a Mega FPP satellite

Obviously biased, but the $700 seem to be the best way. You can easily spend $700 in a $33r if you don't know how to play them. All the rebuys are pretty high variance. I would go for the $700 and the FPP routes (Mega should be more difficult as you have to win a few stages) if possible.

I am only guessing, but I think this might be the last Sunday for the $700 as there are no others listed now and it's getting closer to the date of the event. I think that's your best bet, followed by the $50r.

Yeah, I agree, and I think this Sunday is the final one.
