herly33 1 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 just got this in my e-mail from Doyle's room-Carnage Showdown TournamentsWhere Texas Hold'em meets INTENSE Casino Action.One hand is all you need and all you'll get in this adrenalin-packed poker known as Single-Handed Carnage.The action begins with each player being dealt 2 hole-cards face up and then everyone is all-in on the first hand. In case of a tie, a second hand will be dealt. Great for last minute feeders and insane fast Sit & Gos. Our featured CARNAGE Tournaments Include Sit & Gos to the $250K and THE BOUNTY. Sit & Go tournaments go for as little as $0.10.Last-minute Multi Table Carnage Satellites start 15 minutes before the Bounty and the $250K.All I can say is WTF!! Link to post Share on other sites

Jariso13 1 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I really dont understand the problem with sites offering options such as these. No one forces people to play them. Obviously no one would ever use them to make money since they aren't positive ev at all. But as a way to have fun and gamboool once in a while why not have them around? I mean I have always felt the more options the better. Link to post Share on other sites
zoo 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 This would be a very enjoyable way to tilt off your bankroll. Much better than taking hours to do it. Link to post Share on other sites

Jambizzle 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Isn't this ev 0 except for the rake paid?Exactly, thus making it a -EV deal. You will lose 100% of the rake (LDO) and only break even if your variance is equal. Link to post Share on other sites

grocery_mony 8 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 If they are sattelites they should be rake free imo because there gonna make rake on the main tourney and these are just flips for seats. Seen stars were running hyper turbos (750tc 3 minute levels starting at 25/50) At least some skill is required there. Link to post Share on other sites

ROACHBABY 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Isn't this the same thing as showdown poker that I play at my church's summer picnic. I like Fulltilts ultra-turbos where you start with 300 chips more. At least there is a little poker in that. Link to post Share on other sites
