    Like if there is a new tourny on a site that has overlays or what not, do you feel like you should tell your fellow P5ers, or do you think it would be disadvantagous to do so?

    I'm fairly certain disadvantagious is not an actual word.

    I am not sure I want to say, cause last time I told the guys about a juicy cash game on a smaller site, I got called out as a dummy. I will say its the same site I was talking aout previously. It has a 20K+ rebuy tourney coming in a few minutes and just a 18 buy-in and currently just 100 people registered. I had to email support to make sure it was not some feeder satellite...

    Here's a couple.

    Ultimate Bet, through November, the 9:00 PM $30+3 tourney for a WSOP package ($12k) usually has less than 250 players. Granted only one prize - but I've found the field to be pretty easy. Played 5 times, 2 final tables (and I'm not that good). Got a 5th and a 2nd. Be really disappointed with that 2nd place if I hadn't won my package the next night (won a $5 R+A satellite to the $215 WSOP package tourney and then won that later that night).

    Bodog - most guaranteed MTT's have overlays - from $2k to $40k tourneys daily (usually 60%-80% full). Nice thing about Bodog - they know the overlays bring in more players, so if they start to fill these, they up the guarantees.

    Everybody knows about Bodog. BTW I cant log onto UB or Bodog. I get 0% connection on Bodog and on UB when I enter my username the screen just freezes . Wierd cause I used to be able to logon to UB until about a yr ago and I have never been able to connect to Bodog. Have no problem connecting to PS, FTP or Doyle's Room...

    I held out on one the other night because of the small field, but now that I've got it, I'll let you guys in...

    The $50 rebuy on UB for the Five Diamond package was damn good. Only 9 people entered and the package is valued at $3000($1600 tourney entry and $1400 cash credited to your account). If I remember correctly, the total amount of money in the pool after the rebuy period was $1400. Pretty good way to get a trip and a shot at an entry into the Five Diamond ME.
