Default i just tried two of these

and even though i went 0-2 - they seem pretty soft. I have been running pretty bad lately - i think i might pound on these for a while.

I meant less profitable than playing my regular games, and therefore not worth playing.

So far these seem super-weak. I decided to play one. Just donked off a ton of chips, though, to a guy playing JJ really passively.

These (the 90 x $50s) sound awesome... I don't follow some of the logic in this thread about how soft they are meaning they should be avoided, so I think I will give them a whirl. Probably tomorrow, as it's kinda late now to get started in one. At $50 a pop, this could be a nice way of stepping back a bit and (hopefully) rebuilding. Figure if I multi-table 3 of these at a time and FT 20% of them... that should be profitable, right?

Let's see - what's the payout structure?
$1350
$900
$540
$450
$360
$292.50
$247.50
$202.50
$157.50

That's not bad, but it is a bit less than I was hoping it would be. Maybe I will hammer 10 of these as a little experiment tomorrow...

Hmmm... I'm actually kinda interested in these. I'm still sticking to the low limits and working at these will probably help my bankroll better than continuing to grind out the $1-$5 MTTs. And if the $22s and $55s are soft, I can only expect these to be worse.

Good logic. I think these would be great for low bankrollers.... I suspect the reason some people don't want to see them is because they will be taking some of the fish away from the $22 ones.
