Sunday High Roller "Tonight"
In Response to Sunday High Roller Help! 
:
I think it tends to get around 160 runners at the moment, so a 16k prizepool with around £4.3k for the win, and a min cash worth about £220. Looking at 18 paid for 160 or so runners I think it is.

Plus 100 points, so you'll qualify for the Mayhem freeroll on Monday evening.
Gl though just enjoy it! It is a great structure, I've heard that you can fold your way to the money. Just ask Maxally.
You're in for free, so just treat it the same as you would if it was £2 deepstack. Best of luck!
Tight early is actually a really decent strategy, not least 'cos it's the opposite to what most people do. The other great thing to do, which is also opposite to what most people do, is to open up later on. Maybe when the blinds get to 300/600 you ought to have gradually eased through the gears.
If you do play super-tight and you've barely played or won a hand by 9.30pm you'll still have over 7000 chips and with the blinds still pretty low you'll have loads of play.
Best of luck (unless you're on my table).
It was really interesting to play the game actually. My plan played itself out perfectly. I knew there'd be some serious players there and that I couldn't outplay them, I knew they'd use sharky and see that I wasn't a tournament player, so I played it super passive for 30 minutes, let em take my blinds, didn't defend once. Luckily after an hour or so I found top set on the flop, managed to double up and knock out one poor soul who hit middle set and that set me going. Played super passive again for an hour, let em steal my blinds, then hit another big hand to knock someone else out. After that, my plan of creating a super tight image obviously worked as I was at-it left right and centre! I didn't have a genuine hand for another two and a half hours, but every twenty minutes or so I went for it. Only 'orrible situation was when I was moved to a table with the top 4 stacks and me when I was about position 9 or 10 out of 15, I knew I'd be the target but luckily only had to defend blinds a couple of times whilst I had junk and before I knew it, I was moved to new table as we were down to 12 players left. Yet again, before I knew it, it was FT. so, Mission accomplished and win £100 from freerolls challenge completed!
Thanks Neil, I think you're being too kind, I was lucky to be honest. I had to throw a couple of three barrel bluffs into the mix in the last couple of hours just to stick around and luckily I never got looked up come the river.
GOOD LUCK TONIGHT.
All the best.
