If you start a SNG in one timeframe and it ends in the next (say start at 11:30pm and end at 12:30am), which period gets the points?

I wish the multi table sng's were included (18,45,90 mans), 4 hours of 9 handed tables just bores me way too much

Re: Sit N Go Madness on FTP
 
Each SNG will actually say something like "Earn points toward Group D (16:00 to 20:00) of SNG Madness"

So those will appear between 16:00 and 20:00. The last one might go off at 20:02 and not end until 21:00, but it will still count towards whatever time period it says in the SNG.

man i wish my BR and skill were sufficient to hammer the 11's rather than hammer the 2's. 11's prizes are all 5x the 2's prizes. But hammer i will. Plus the fact that i'm trying to go 'iron man' and such.

These are just hold em SNG's right? Cause if they start throwing out omaha and stud crap i'm going to be angry.

Edit: Also, are these just STT's or all SNG's? Is it just straight cash-STT-Texasholdem-SNG's?

Hmm, IMO this kinda sucks, it's just a contest amongst those with 2 monitors and PAHUD, so that kills the chances of winning for 95%+ of the players out there.

Maybe if for each player, only the first dozen games or so during a 4 hour stretch are counted towards the leaderboard for a particular group, it would even the playing field for everyone involved.

I also like the idea of just counting your first 12-16 games instead of just rewarding the 16 tablers.

I disagree, but thank you for your detailed assessment on my opinion.

But you're right. People who have 3 monitor setups that can 16 table should automatically have a huge edge over everyone else. I'm crazy for thinking a promotion should adapt to give everyone a fair shot.

Yea, lets play 12 total and whoever does the best in those is the winner. Because that would determine anything at all.

To be clear, you win the overall leaderboard for a given group (Such as Group A, the $1-$2 group) by having the best 4 hour period of the whole weekend. Think of it like setting the record in the high jump.

The four overall winners (one from groups A, B, C, and D) will play the 4 man shootout.

If someone wins the Overall for two different Blocks, they will get a free ride to the finals of the heads up shootout.

I guess if you win three of the blocks, you still get a free ride to the finals but you get 50% more respect.

And if you win all four of them, I guess you win $5,000.


If you like the idea, try to support it and we might be able to do it once a month.

this promotion is not nearly as good as it first sounded. look at what FTPdoug said. theyre not giving away that prize for EVERY 4 hour segment. you ahve 12 'chances' at 4 hour segments to see who wins the ONE prize at the end of the weekend for each buyin class.

in other words, they are only giving away ONE first place prize to each level over the whole weekend.

kinda worthless.....esp when you consider how much rockier the games just instantly got. ill be takin the weekend off. later suckers!

What are we trying to "determine"? I thought the goal of the promotion was to give people a chance to win more prizes. Does 16 tabling "determine" anything I'm not aware of other then increased volume.

Re: Sit N Go Madness on FTP
 
damn hoya, there goes my idea too. WPTfuji is ok, I played with him a bunch back in the summer. Now it's a competition of who can 16 table the $2s better over a 4 hr period. No easy wins in any group. Hoya you might be able to beat him though if you 16 table, he's not that fantastic.

Re: Sit N Go Madness on FTP
 
just because you arent capable of 12-16 tabling for a long period of time doesnt mean you should cry about it, its not some sort of unfair advantage, some people are better at some things than others so deal with it. also, there successful multitablers use one monitor and dont use a HUD. but if you think its going to make that much of a difference and bawl over it then go buy 12 monitors and pokeracehud and see how much things change
