Re: PokerStars December TLB race!
Kleath,
reread this: "However, the winner won’t be playing just for themselves. Every time the passport-holder cashes in one of the ten events, ten percent will be returned to PokerStars. The amount will be doubled for a special Frequent Flyer Freeroll. These tournaments will be open to all VIPs that are SilverStar Status or higher, for just 10 FPPs. Be sure to check the PokerStars blog for regular updates on their travels!" Note it says RETURNED TO and not MATCHED BY. Instead of being completely idiotic and doing something like this they should have just offered less packages. Honestly, this is asinine. |

Re: PokerStars December TLB race!
And yes, they double the amount for a freeroll, but [censored] all you guys I don't want to give my money to you for a god damn freeroll.

Re: PokerStars December TLB race!
Not much value to go out of your way to do this except for top 100. 101+ sucks.

Don't participate in the promotion then. If you make top 100 just sit out when they do the freeroll.

Any promotion they have is a good promotion, because the alternative is NO promotion. |

Top 100 certainly has value but 101+ sucks, which I'm stating. No idea why you would tell me to sitout if I make top 100. It's basically a 25kish prizepool for the rest of the people, meaning 101-201 gets like a $250 buyin tourny with some of the toughest other MTTers (at least in volume), 201-500 gets about a $85 buyin, and $50 for the last group. Hardly a promotion worth playing at all. 2+2 used to appreciate calculating EV of promotions, guess not anymore. Edit: This promotion would be so much more awesome if it was just a huge freeroll where top 1k players play for like 20-25 seats and let them do the 10% thing. I think it would actually attract more people to play and be easier to advertise FWIW. |
