May be he meant, if you FT in 20 tournaments, you'll make top 100. Is that right?

This looks like a sweet promotion, so wondering how many FTs one has to make to get to the top 100 or at least 1000.

-------Also, does this package include hotel and spending money? It only specifies buy-ins on the information page.

Yes

It is kind of hard to find out how many points are actually needed to finish in the top 1k when all you can see in the lobby are the top 100 and yourself. Did anyone of you ever finish 1k-ish in the TLB and can give a better estimate?

Perhaps Scottyy can chime in with the amount the person in 1000th place had last month, identity concealed of course...

no i meant cash. glad i put the disclaimer that i was pulling it out of my ass...the reason I said that is because obviously its possible to make top 100 w/o 20 cashes, so i figured 20 cashes would get u in easily, assuming you finished at or near the top a few times.

i know nobody has any way of knowing this, but what % of people who cash 20 times in a month DON'T make top 100, I would be interested ot know

What are the best tournaments to get TLB points? I'm sure there is a primer somewhere, can someone point me to it? I've heard that 180's are good, but what else?

I haven't looked at the tlb in quite some time, but a year and a half ago at least the rebuys were actually really bad (relatively) because they counted as the original buyin even though they're actually essentially a higher buyin event. maybe it's been changed since then.

Your right, but they generally get really big fields + good players are a lot more likely to take them down, so the top TLB guys have their most success in them
