Pokerstars Saturday FPP tourneys
I sent an email to Stars about this quite a while back (few months) and never quite got an answer. So here goes nothing.
On Saturdays, Stars has an LHE tourney. Entry fee = 50 FPP. I do it because it doesn't cost me real money and I'm just the kind of nit who enjoys LHE tourneys. Once a month, the entry fee jumps to 200 FPP. The prize pool for the first tourney is $1000. The prize pool for the bigger tourney? $2500. Shouldn't it be a bigger prize pool? |

Re: Pokerstars Saturday FPP tourneys
The only argument I can see is that if the field is only 62% as large, but it seems to me they're roughly the same size.

Re: Pokerstars Saturday FPP tourneys
FPP's are normally worth roughly 1.5 to 1.6 cents each.
These tourneys represent a great value and or great overlay. The FPP's end up being worth over 3 cents each for many of these I would imagine. The 200 FPP one right now is about 400 players for $2500 prize-pool. Entry value is $6.25. 200 FPP's = about $3. So you spend $3 to get a tourney entry worth more than double that. That's a decent little overlay for you. If the 50FPP/$1k one draws 500 players: Each entry is worth $2. It cost you roughly $0.75 to enter. |

Re: Pokerstars Saturday FPP tourneys
Heh, I thought the first response from a regular was going to berate me for it... I actually do pretty well in the 50s, better than I usually have been doing in the $1.50s or $4s, sadly.
