A couple of new draw tournaments at PokerStars
This afternoon at 14:15 ET, PokerStars will be running a $8+0.80 "Double Chance" PL 5CD tourney. Apparently the gimmick is that there is one rebuy available, which cannot be used unless you go completely bust. There is no add-on. I'll probably try this event even though I'm pretty skeptical about the "Double Chance"; it seems to me that one should be allowed to use their rebuy at the break even if they have not gone bust. I don't know if this will be a regular event or not; I've seen the "Double Chance" run with different games and I think Stars is rotating games with this event.
Also, I received an email from Mike Jones and a $1+0.10 Limit Draw event will be part of the regular schedule, beginning on Monday April 2. It will be at 14:30 ET-which is the exact same time that the $1 Draw event that Planet Poker had been running for years. I won't get to play this event much, but it should be a cheap introduction to draw tourneys for someone who has never played them before.
