I am thinking of getting in a 20+2 Heads up tourney on Stars that starts in 30 minutes. I have never played or watched. Do you just move up the ladder, ie. defeat one then go to the next. If not, what is it? Thanks in advance.

no its not a ladder torney as far as i know its 2 independent tables when you get down to 10 people then its final table.

[BrianSwa]

if its 20+2 heads up its you against someone else winner gets 40 dollars.

[humpty99]

there was 128 people. i finished about 70th.

Im just wondering what the money cut was?

[humpty99]

Total prize 2560

1: 768
2: 460.80
3-4: 256
5-8: 102.40
9-16: 51.20

It was kind of fun, and its nice because you only had to beat one person at a time (not 5 idiots at once). I am usually nails at heads up; however, the guy I went out against was a huge calling station. I had him down to about 750, then he starting catching everything. I'll definately do it again, and hopefully with a better showing. I kept 50.00 going on Paradise for two months on heads up alone. I got tired of it and started playing sit n gos and ended up cashing out at 100.00. Not much, but at least I didn't lose.

I said this in another thread but ill mention it here on pacific you should always play cash games the players are so bad they about beg you to take there money and im all to happy to obligue them.

Interesting. I must try one of those soon. I know AP has some cheap ones. I may try those first before I venture off into a big $$ one.
