Would this bet be better or worse for Gigabet if the $30s didn't exist?

a) i think that getting a zillion people in on this just isn't going to happen and kinda sucks

b) clearly this is worse each low level you remove. duh.

well... of course I'm in for $100.
though I agree that raising the minimum wager is probably not a bad idea.
The HHs are worth more than $100, not to mention you have at least some shot at doubling up.

rvg does this sim bear in mind that he has to play exactly 100 at each level and move up after the 100th SNG at each level, and cannot drop down?

just checking... that seems awfully high!

Yeah - this is 100 at each level. 72% success is high but that is also for a very high ROI player. A slightly lower ROI and this becomes 50/50 bet with 15 buy-ins.

The thing is that assuming the ITM/ROI I laid out for the $10 to $50 levels are accurate, there is little chance of him busting out. The biggest question is will he build enough of a bankroll at these lower levels to get through the potential swings of the 100's and 200's.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the terms of this bet will change a bit to keep everyone in the poker world from accessing these HHs.

But i've been wrong before.

I wonder if these HHs are so valuable, that people will try to sell them after the fact?

I'm in for 100, mainly for the HHs, though its possible Gigabet might not make it. And there is almost no chance the HHs won't get out to some people who didn't go in on the wager.
