gibler321 1 Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 am i the only one that thinks having the L, M, and H all start at the same time is a bad idea? i mean the H event is not nearly going to get as many of the donks from the lower levels. like the people who satt in are going to satt into the lower/med buy in one, not the higher.

DinkDonk 1 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 In 11M, 20L, 20M for sure. Maybe I'll look into selling pieces and playing 20H, but it will depend on my financial situation at that time.And I'm sure I'll play a few M NL events as well. Series looks amazing.

Jordan 1 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 zzzzzVtlaxer has over 100k in buy-ins, ezgame --i think that schedule is pretty cool with low/medium/high but just lol @ people who are backed playing these things. gonna be like backers vs backers + high stakes cash game players.I'll probably play the HU tournies and hopefully that's about it.

There are maybe 20 people playing those H events that are actually ++ev in them over such a small sample size and whats gonna happen is that 5% of them or so are gonna get rich and the rest are gonna spend the next decade in makeup.

DonkSlayer 1 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 You'll need to devote at least a full day to the low buyins imo. Wish i had that kinda time. Link to post Share on other sites

silkyjonson 1 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I def agree that that this series is going to lose some value because of the way it is set up. FTOPS is awesome because a lot of lower stakes guys play the 200's and 500's that are out of their league, the H's are not going to be seeing too much of that but the M's def are. Anyways I'm excited for this and am gonna try and satty into some of the H's, anything that brings out lots of players is great for poker so bring on the massive fields IMO.
