mrpaddyx 13 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I've already wrote this in another thread but I though it might be worth mentioning that it seemd Pokerstars are running their biggest ever sngs at the moment as part of their World Record attempt week. The events have $10,000 added to the prize pool with an $1.1 entry fee. It seems to defeat the the whole concept of "sit and go" though. Pay you entry fee, wait a few hours, play your first hand seems most likely. Might be worth a punt though. Link to post Share on other sites
Vtlaxer09 4 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 from what I gathered on 2p2.. the first one started regging at midnight est (6.5 hours ago).. got to 5k entries... flattened out... then dropped 2k entries and now is sitting at about 4k entries. Another one started up and is at 2k entries... Im regged for both lol. Link to post Share on other sites

Acekob 0 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I signed up... this tournament will probably cause instant donkashove on the first 10 hands or so Link to post Share on other sites
HighwayStar 8 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I might open ship every hand til I get to a 10k stack or bustStars NEED to put a hyper turbo out there, a 10000 man hyper turbo would be possibly the greatest tournament ever. Link to post Share on other sites

Dago 0 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I played the first two. Normal one and a turbo... min cashed in both. Didn't really see more donk moves than the regular low stakes torunaments though. Although I didn't pay much attention either so I might have missed most of it. Link to post Share on other sites
