I'm gonna play Head Hunters to start and go for broke, ie hope to go on a heater and kick-off with a good ROI.
If (and it's a very big if that requires a ton of rungood) I'm looking down at a decent ROI that puts me in contention for a seat after say 15 games I'll then try to preserve it by switching to the low variance safety of DYMs. At that point I'll exercise careful table selection.
If my ROI is negative after 15 games I'll probably just throw in the towel and return to my normal games. If it's positive, but not positive enough to make top 6 I'll keep hammering the Head Hunters in the hope of a late surge.
Regular 6-max tables are tough at the moment due to this promotion. Whoever makes top 6 will have to run very well to get there regardless of which route they choose. I still think most, if not all, of the top 6 are likely to emerge from 6-max or Head Hunter tables. If a DYM player can make 25+ wins out of 30 and refrain from any further play then maybe they're in with a shout, time will tell.
I get in right trouble with Upstairs when I try to do "Customer Care"" stuff, but the Terms & Conditions seem, to me, quite clear.
T & C # 3 states......
3. Players can opt in at any time prior to March 23rd at 23:59 with promo code: SKILL and the leaderboard will track their average ROI based on all their 6 Max Sit & Go’s they play from Mar.18th (00:01) to Mar.31st (23:59).
The full T & C's are on the Skill & go Promo Page, HERE
However, CC is the official route if you wish to clarify it, not me.
Quick question please to anyone who may have been in a similar sort of situation in the past.
I regged for a DYM a few minutes prior to midnight [night of the 17th] the game started after midnight [the 18th]
would this count as one of my '30' do you think?
I'm hoping so!
DYM current standing
20-3
Anyway......
Good Luck to everyone tonight.
Let's do this thing, as the kids say.
I'll reply to any further stuff tomorrow, I've got some PLO8 DYM's to crush. Well, squeeze gently. Maybe.
Have you noticed how, in poker-speak, everyone either crushes, or gets did the lot?
Nobody ever does "OK", or, "lost a little bit".
Have a good evening.
There needs to be a clear start & finish line, or the sort it out Sky brigade would be out in full force.
One I got HU with chip lead, but read too much TeddyBloat(!) and shoved over a 3x at 100/200 with T8s, snapped by AK which held.
Bust the other two, one of which was particularly cruel not managing to hold with AT vs QT on AJT, then getting it in with Q4 vs AT on 234, T on turn, calling a button shove with AT and losing to K2s then finally when short AJ < 55 < QT - all in the same game! Crazy scenes.
ROI taken a battering, and is down to 64% after 9. Interested to see how the leaderboard is shaping up for those who have made 30+.
Was all going swimmingly until game 20. Then I couldnt win an all in... regardless of how far I was in front! Meh. How it goes. You need some rungood if you're gunna win this. Sadly I didnt. Recouped a little with a win on my last game but...
Wins - 8
2nd - 7
No Cashes - 15
Av ROI - 39.1%
Could have been so much better. I fear I wont even be in the top 20, let alone top 6.
Oh well. Made £111 on the way so can't complain.
here's a spreadsheet to help.
first type (or copy and paste) these four rows into your spreadsheet
and column E to say.... =SUM(D$3:D3)/A3
and copy those cells down the page.
Loss - 3
That's most helpful Rob, I'll soon be able to work my ROI out now.
