Another Bankroll Thread...180 mans on Stars
Just wondering if there are any thoughts on the ideal bankroll for playing the $3-rebuy turbo 180 mans on stars, or the $8 turbos' Anybody here play them regularly' Would be cool to discuss some strategy if you were interested, as hoping to step up from $2.50 turbos'

Any Interest in $2.50 180-man turbo Competition?
OK, how about this...a competition called 250 $2.50's! One month with a 250 cap, most profit wins. Figure a $50 buy-in for the individual comp, and $50 per player for a team comp, with seperate price pools for each. Probably make it two or three player teams depending on interest. Whay do you guys think'

Any Interest in $2.50 180-man turbo Competition?
Thanks RhoNin, would be great to have you on board again, especially if I can punt you into 2nd spot with my final tourney, haha. Definitely keen for more games and over a longer time period this time around, just hoping we can get some more interest and get this thing going

Any Interest in $2.50 180-man turbo Competition?
I ran a similar comp a couple of months back (see link below), and wanted to see if anybody fancied it again, probably starting on 1st May. Welcome all thoughts on duration (week/2 weeks/month) and game cap, as well as any comments on general structure. Would be cool to run both a team and individual comp as I have done in the past, but will depend on the interest etc. / Post your thoughts in this thread, and will see if we can get it up and running.

Now that the competition is closed and the OP has been updated for the final time, I am delighted to announce that our winner is...me!!! hahaha Scored a 2nd place in my final tourney (I think at the time I needed a 3rd place to guarantee the victory, and was severly nursing my chiplead with 4 remaining at the table, would have been a pretty annoying bubble!) Should have won it heads-up as well, against some seriously terribly Portugese player who couldn't miss a flop! Didnt' think my night was heading anywhere when I busted out of 3 before I even had all of my final 10 games fired up (AA

Asking if you can 'crack one out' will also have the same effect

Haha, touh luck arthurdog, couldn't believe the amount of decent score you had in the 50 games following your first 50 since Monday, pretty annoying! Still, at least you hae some nice profit to show for the grinding over the past few days Nice finish RhoNin, with scores updated in OP, you are out in the lead with $58 profit, nice score of $46 with a couple of games to spare!

Hi all, scores updated through to Wednesday 8th Feb at 2200 GMT. I have been all over the UK with work this week, still haven't had a chance t get a single game in. Wll be hoping to get something on the board over next couple of days or I'm going to struggle. Haha, sick run after yourfirst 50 games man, you woulda been looking strong if the comp was 100 cap. You might want to double check the scores I have put up for you, had to do it manually as couldn't just search your first 50. I have that last score to count was recorded on 7th Feb at 20:51, a score of $2.42 profit...nice! Let me ...

Scores updated guys, RhoNin, please note you played 6 games before official start time on Monday 6th, so these haven't been counted towards your scores so far. thearthurdog, need you to unblock your username on Sharkscope so I can track your scores. Let me know once you have it done. Definitely nobody running away with it so far, looks like -99% ROI could win it at this rate!

Hey Wacky, I totally agree with you, it was never my intention to allow for late registration, I just wanted to let BenFaz have the opportunity to get in as he had expressed his interest in the earlier thread, and had said he would ship. Restration will not be open to anyone else. I hope that seems cool with you.

All received, thank you and good luck to all. Apparently my Silver Subscription to Sharkscope doesn't allow me to create Leaderboards there anymore (total scam!) so will have to check sores manually using Sharkscope/OPR. I willl ty to update the scores daily as much as possible, hope this is cool with everybody. Remember, the first 50 tourneys played that start after 0000EST (0500UTC for Sharkscope purposes) tonight count. GL all, I just hope I run a little better than the rest of you

Possible $2.50 turbo 180-man SNG comp if anyone is interested?
hey arthur, think you have competed in a few of my comps before (though undoubtedly with terrible results ased on your above statement!) so would be keen to have your input with regards structure, duration etc Think this would be pretty tight for me dude, and probably for a lot of people that might be interested' I think 100 is a good size, but 1 week is a little short on time. Unless a lot of people want to go for this, then I can give it a crack and try not to go insane. Also thinking of doing both a team and individual comp if can get the numbers' Thinking this is too rich for my ...

Possible $2.50 turbo 180-man SNG comp if anyone is interested?
Not sure yet Whoaa, happy to consider all possibilities and go with something that will get most runners. I don't have a chance to put in insane volume, so probably look at going for something that at least lasts a couple weeks, though traditionally have run month long comps with a cap on the games, but might be a little too long for some people to commit to.

Solid ROI at micro/low turbo 18-man SNGs?
Thanks for responses guys, figured I might be able to maintain a little more than 10%, but guess will wait and see. Going to be 8-10 tabling to begin wacky, and will rather move up in stakes before moving up in amount of tables, as def more interested in building roll. Do you reckon stars is the right place to be'
