How to win it?

Win the 8pm MAIN EVENT.

Win the 8.15pm Mini-Main.

Collect £11,320. Do not stop, do not Pass Go, just collect the money, & a Comedy Cheque too. Then go to the SPT Grand Final with THREE freebie friends, & win that too. First Prize at SPT Grand Final? No idea, but probably best part of £25,000.........

They are having a laugh.

Rebuy Open, very good structure Lambert but i would recommend u take a rebuy @ start and have enough to rebuy on break. That's how i've always played it and had best results that way, a few times ive played it with no 2nd bullet and still enough room but not done aswell.

goes on till like 2am, plenty of play, Cream rise to top

Someone do some maths and calculate the odds of winning this.

Assuming there is 200 entrants in each and everyone is of equal ability I calculate odds at winning 1 in 20,000.

But my maths suck so could be way off:).

liamboi11

its a sign i`ve decided to switch to mtts this month i will just take it down tonight thanks sky lol

Wrong

Whoever wins the main event is guaranteed to win the main event (Obviously). So the main event is basically selecting one "random" person, and the chances of the Jackpot going on any given night is actually the chances of that person winning the mini.

It's actually a lot more likely than it sounds.

The odds I was trying to estimate was for any specific person who enters both to win this jackpot, not the odds of the jackpot being won by anyone which is a lot different.

I think you are confused.

sorry Spad3s,

 Pingu is right unless you want to determine before the main event which player is going to win it & then that same person has to then win the mini as well.

Otherwise all you are calculating is the odds of whoever wins the main wins the mini as well.
