    Congrats to your bro!!! gl to him to get the mil...
  16. Thanks for all the well wishes guys and a big thanks to Plattsburgh for being as supportive during my downswings as he is during these peaks.

    My best previous finish in the Big Doubles was 1st and 3rd so it felt really great to close it out this time.

    Does anyone have a clue how worthwhile it is to grind the $5 and $10 doubles? I'm leaning toward not even worrying about it
     
  17. go for the milly

    Jackpots are 20+ and 30+ K definitely worthwhile. Plus who doesn't want a million dollars

  21. Congrats man. You played a really solid game. Sick accomplishment.

    The $5 and $10s are soft, but fields are fairly large. Probably be tough to bink all 4. But, for a milly, why not try?

    PS. You're welcome for doubling you up twice in the A.
  22. congrats!

  23. Go for it! I'm sure that your chances are very small being that the fields are so big, but I think if you don't try you will always be wondering what would have happened. Congrats on the nice bonus, Good luck!

  24. he should try to take down the early doubles and big doubles also, if he does he gets 1 million dollars I believe
     
  25. i think he should go for the million dollar bonus

    all he has to do is win the other 4 doubles

    Ya, I think I've heard the same.
  27. nice, congrats
  28. Congrats again Jared !!!

    I used to grind the early double in the past, a solid game early is advisable as the structure is pretty OK. Big problem is def the field size... 1K+ ppl is not that easy to ship twice but I don't know why, I have a good feeling you can do something ;-)..

    GL for the milly !!
