    Ive looked all thru both sites and i cant find anything prohibiting playing on 1 account with different names at UB and AP...So i can play the Trip Tens Promo on my AP 1 night and my UB the next and (well not me) conceivably finish in the money twice?????
    Im dead money if i had 8 seats at a 9 player table but could a good player do this? legally????

    Sure but if you combined the scores of both accts I bet you would win more $. The promo payouts are top heavy.

    Is that any different then Cake/Doyles room etc.?

    Normally yes, but in this promo they are using your best 10 finishes and there are around 300 Mtts in the series. So a good player, lets say a whitealroker or maybe someone not quite that level...lets use Johnny Bax, could get 10 wins and then get 10 more and still have 2 weeks to lay on the beach...or learn Omaha or whatever the good players do in their downtime....

    I think you are overestimating the impact that skill has on a 400 donkey field. I don't think it is possible for one person to even win 5 of these things. My guess is the eventual champ will have about 500-600 TLB pts made up of 10 final tables.

    For reference in a 5k guaranteed field the TLB pts are awarded as follows:

    1=70
    2=53
    3=45
    ...
    9=30

    how have you guys been doing in this?... i've played 36 of these and cashed in 1 thus far and have run ridiculously bad. i've notice they dropped the guarantees on most of the tourneys from 5k to 3k after them having some significant overlays so these are not nearly as big a hit as they expected.

    with AP/UBs history i'm just a lil suspicious, haven't really played on the site but always do well on stars/ftp with a 40% roi through 5k mtts and AP/UB is wayyy softer.

    I have played 7, only final tabled one (bink...brag). I have 4 scores toward the 10, but I figure 10 final tables needed and a couple deep runs in the dime as well. No points in the first Dime game. I am focusing on the 5K ones a bit more now

    yeah i'm running terribly, getting it in great for top 10 stacks over and over again and losing has become frustrating. hopefully i turn it around.
