Anyone tried the rounders sitngo\'s on the nin.com network?
 

Just wondering if anyone has played those rounders sitngo's where you work your way up to possible winning 3g's from only a $5 entry fee? Looks tempting. Please reply with successes or thoughts on the format. Thanks.

I dont understand what the broom and trap mean? Does that mean dont play them? Please explain.

I haven't heard of these but im assuming it means the rake is too high to beat these profitably.

Rake+Trap

It seems very profitable if you finish well for a few tourney's. If you can finish in the top 2 in 5 in a row you can turn $5 into $2000 or $3000, seems pretty good if your a good player.

I dont see how it could be a rake trap, there is no rake while your moving up the ladder, only free entries.

K, sounds like you've got it figured out. Finish top 2 in 5 straight, profit!

Well, if the are like steps that party offered they are definitely at rake trap.

Part of the entry you win at one step, is put towards the rake at the next step. You are paying rake regardless of whether it is in the form of an 'entry' or not.

Think about it if you just did you own step system. Say you play an $11 sit n go at party. Look at the payout like this:

1st: 1 entry to a $22 and $17 cash.
2nd: Re-entry to an $11 and $8 cash.
3rd: $9 cash.
4th: Nada.

So, when you win that $11 step and move to the $22s, you are still paying the $2 in rake. The same applies to any step program.
