For those who question if the mods over here ever win anything. I don't have time for huge tourneys. I'll settle for the small stuff. Just barely counts, 101 ppl.

Nice job!

I didn't know there was such a thing as a 100 player tournament on PS. Then I saw O/8 and it made more sense. :)

Have you tried out any of FTP's super turbo tournaments? I played in a 1200 or so player game yesterday, busted out in 200-some-th place, and it only took 40 minutes. Different strategy than the usual slow game, but it's action and great short stack/endgame practice.

Yeah, I know where you're coming from there. My brother got me into the super turbos (he's making a ton of money with them) and we laugh now about how I used to complain so much about turbos. They're a different game, less strategy and more preflop math action. But I know where you're coming from, given the choice I'll play a 1r1a or deepstack any time over a turbo. Standard rebuys tilt me too much, although the juicy prize pools are hard to resist.

Congrats Jester. I'm in the same boat as you (I play mostly 45's on FTP because they'll be done in 2 hours). Though, over the weekend, I'll play something from time to time.
