I love STEPS, turbos or regulars? Can you buyin with W$?

Could someone copy the details for us at work that can't view pokerstars?

Default Step 6 is 18 entries

Note that Step 6 is 18 entries for 3 Atlantis spots, all of the other steps are 9 entries. Its not mentioned in the diagram, but obvious if you add up the direct entry $$$'s

Yeah, I thought that was kind of weird.
Curious how tough it's going to be to fill up those $2100 buy-in 2-table SNG's.

I'm curious too, this could probably be done mathematically since the tickets aren't cashable for anything other than the next step. Like if you count (or estimate) the number of the $7.50s will go off each day, and make an assumption that whenever anyone wins a ticket to the next step they use it within 24 (or pick another number) hours, you can probably figure out a baseline number of 2100s that will run (plus some extras because of people buying in directly).

not everyone will run their way up all the way from the 7's.
You might even have a couple of high-stakes SNG pro's who just camp-out in the $2100's looking to win W$ from softish fields.

even if that weren't the case, it's not like you're going to get one to go off the instant that 18 people acquire a ticket.
you could have 50 people hanging onto a $2100 ticket but still have a tough time getting 18 of them together at the same time.

going the other way:
using them within 24 hours is a bold assumption. I had a couple of $215 party-steps that I hung onto for a few wks just because I didn't feel very inspired to play them at that time.

That's the 1st thing I noticed. I wonder if they will make a 9 player table, where winner gets the package, 2nd gets 4K and 3rd gets 2K.

This was the thing I liked the least about these. I Just play for fun mainly make a little in the process. I played a few step 1 and 2's last night before I noticed step 6 was 18 players. When I lose all the tickets I currently have that will be the end for me unless there is a 1 table step 6 added. I would like to see 1 table step 6 maybe something like this.

1st - 12000 PCA
2nd - 2100 step 6 ticket
3rd - 2100 step 6 ticket
4th - 700 step 5 ticket
5th - 215 step 4 ticket + $25
6th-9th 215 step 4 ticket

You could change 5th-9th maybe add another step 5 for 5th and make 6th -9th worth less

Oh yeah and definitley turbos at least for the Steps 1 and 2.
