Stars Sunday Micro Multi Table Challenge

[Exitonly]

Yes i know it's saturday, i'm posting it a day in advance to get it out in the open hopefully get a nice showing for tomorrow.

I started this last week and I think i'll keep doing it, aslong as theres .. well any interest at all.
There wasn't a set scoring system last week, but i think i'm going to use what P5's is doing for the WCOOP leaderboard.. but tweaked a little bit.

.3 * Entrants - Finish + Bonus.

Bonus = 50 points for FT, 100 points for win.

So for 1400 person tournament that you win.

.3 * 1400 = 420

- 1 = 419

+ 150 in bonuses = 569.

(and the score has to be >0.. so if youd ont finish top 30% it's 0 points)
-----
I'm listening to suggestions on the scoring system, if anyone has any ideas. (and if you were curious, i'd have won last week w/ this scoring system too..)
-----

Ok so these are the tournaments included:

8:00 NL $3
9:00 NL $2
9:30 Stud $1
9:45 NL $3
10:00 NL 1
10:15 NL 2
10:30 NL 1
10:45 NL 2
11:00 NL 1

--------
Defending champ: Exitonly4 (I rule!)

--------

Send $10 to Exitonly4 to get in, acceepting $ from now till 9:30pm tomorrow.

--------

Hope i didn't forget anything, if i did lemme know..

Good luck everybody.

[benneh]

i'll be in i think

damn, I'd love to participate but I have work Monday morning, any way you could do this on a Friday or Saturday night?

[TomHimself]

the micros are on sunday

[Exitonly]

yea was just about to say that... they're on sunday, monday and a few other days during the week... but not friday or saturday.


you could still participate and only play the first 4 or 5.

Or you could man up and go to work with a little less sleep /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[Exitonly]

lets give this a little bump for the late night crowd.

[IHateKeithSmart]

I will own this tomorrow evening if I can get all my homework taken care of.

[Exitonly]

homework? how old are you IHateKeithSmart? I got the impression somewhere that you were considerably older than me. Also what shouuld i call you? I rememer you saying your name, just don't remember what it was.

[IHateKeithSmart]

lol, yes I am old - 29. I am working on my MS in CS now.

Jason

[Exitonly]

a-ha, alright 'Jason' well good luck with the homework, i wanna see some competition in this thing tomorrow.
And 29 isn't all that old.

--

Any well known 2+2ers (to list a few: TTIU, Jurollo, fnurt, adanthar, and to go out on a limb Gavin?).. wanna get in on this? I'd like to see how they compare to the rest of us in something like this.

[KneeCo]

In.

I guess I have to start studying (http://www.cardplayer.com/rules-of-poker/seven-card-stud.php).

Gl all. Thanks to exit for setting this up.

[djg40]

I don't post a whole lot, and I am awful at MTTs, but what the hell? I suppose I could do this. I won't send money until tomorrow when I am sure, but as of now, I think I will be in.

PokerStars name is same as here (djg40)

[2005]

There's a decent chance I'll be in on this. Sounds kinda fun.

[TwistedEcho]

im in if neteller wakes up in time (don't tell CSC as i'm meant to be learning limit!) Oh, how does stud work again? Isn't there an omaha micro we can play instead?

[Exitonly]

nah not on sundays.

[GoldenHorde]

Looks like fun count me in i'll send tommorrow when I log in just in case I forget.

[Exitonly]

alright 8 or 9 people expressed interested so far..

So looks like we should have a dececnt prizepool.

I have to drive to the airport so i'll be gone most of the day, but shouhld get here right before this thing kicks off at 8:00EST.
So if i' mnot answering any questions, it's still on, and i'll answer when i get back.

[benneh]

bump for the sunday crowd

[chumsferd]

This sounds like a lark. I wouldn't mind in (can't do tonight though). The Sunday night micros suck, generally, for people like me (in the UK and starting work 4 hours after the last Sunday night micro kicks off). If people are around and want to do this one Friday night, that'd be cool...

[chumsferd]

[crookedhat99]

[1Winston]

Gonna try to make it, if my transfer from Euro ever makes it to neteller.

I'm wondering if exit wants to put up some other kind of sidebet (not an LL) for this. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Not in challenge, but will probably play the 8 oclock one

[Exitonly]

i suppose we could do some sort of bet about who performs better, but using a different formula than that for the main competition maybe? i duno. i'm gona go rest for a bit until the $10+1 starts. ill try to think of somethin.

and if we do end up betting, i'll offer a $30 bounty to any 2+2er who knocks exit out /images/graemlins/wink.gif

You fish are lucky I can't play today. If another one goes off on Friday, prepare to be phatbeetz'ed. Gl all and have fun.

[benneh]

5 minutesi nto this and i realized i dont feel like playing today.

so im out. keep my money in the pool though. i may do another micro later on today, but im just really not up to do anything at the moment.

[Hotrod0823]

After last nights rebuy I would see why.

[KneeCo]

who is dimastermind, and how is he registered for all the tourneys beforehand?

Well, I just busted out of the $3 on this hand. Did I play this right or should I have raised more pre-flop?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

BB (t3240)
UTG (t3095)
UTG+1 (t1115)
MP1 (t785)
MP2 (t1655)
MP3 (t1545)
CO (t2480)
Hero (t1115)
SB (t3290)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t30, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t90</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t270</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls t240, UTG+1 calls t240, MP3 calls t180.

Flop: (t1095) Q/images/graemlins/club.gif, 3/images/graemlins/club.gif, T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 bets t300</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t845</font>, BB folds, UTG+1 calls t845 (All-In), MP3 calls t545.

Turn: (t3630) Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: (t3630) 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t3630

UTG+1 has 2s Qd (three of a kind, queens).
MP3 has Kc 8c (two pair, queens and eights).
Hero has Ad Ah (two pair, aces and queens).
Outcome: UTG+1 wins t3630. </font>


The same thing happened to my kings earlier, all in on the flop, other guy had Q8s, and his third Q hit on the river. Should I be raising more with these kind of hands? In that one, it was 25/50. He limped UTG, I raised 3x bb from button or co (can't remember).

Thanks,
Will

[crookedhat99]

I think u can email support asking them to reg u for a tourny before the actual registration opens.

[1Winston]

I'm in... I think. We can send until 9:30?

Sent...

[FakeKramer]

Crap I missed this again. Do it next week!!

[nfpceo]

I think your pre-flop raise was fine. I would do the same...you just got unlucky. The only way I would raise more is if I'm at a table where players are willing to call all ins pre-flop. A lot of times in the low buy ins players will call with weak hands...

[fnurt]

I will play with you guys tonight, I've been such a donk lately that I might as well donk it off in a bunch of $1 tournaments instead of the high buy-ins.

I missed the first tournament but I'm sure my superior skill will allow me to make up for it (j/k)

I'll be playing on Pokerstars for the first time tonight. Being a newb, I just hope to get lucky. /images/graemlins/smile.gif See you at the tables.

out 1581 in #4 (the second 3$)

Believe it or not, I'm out of the stud event. 467th.

out 885th in #2 (2$ NL).

Wow, if I don't even cash once tonight, I have to turn in my 2+2 membership, right?

[Lethal411]

Out 415th in the stud event.
Out 1028 in event 6.

Lethal411

[TwistedEcho]

too many tables to remember which is was, out 950th in one pushing AK into AQ, Q on turn. Nearly out 2nd one, down to 45 chips (villain pushes A6s beats 99, then AKo vs QQ) back to 1000 chips tho. Went from 65chips to 2000, then lost AK vs JJ to put me back into it. Out 495

In money in first one, 5bbs tho

[mblax10]

Ugh, starting to get tired. SN=thatfnmb

Tourney # 1-289th, when a guy decides he needs to call 80% of his chips with KJ soooted.
# 2-522nd, classic Stars coin Flip My KQ vs. 8's. All-in PF, flop Queen, Turn Queen River 8
# 3-Just went out #291, No idea what I was doing, don't think I've won a pot yet
#4-1099th, Somehow got my money in PF with 10's vs. 5 3 sooted vs 8's vs. KQ o in a 8k pot (I made the first all-in call which was probably bad) and lost.
#5-T2849
#6-T1400
#7-T3400, Already flopped a set and doubled up
Waiting for #8 &amp; #9 to start

Currently 43rd place with 9.1K at the second break on the 3+0 that started at 9:45. Shot up to 5th but then had trash and lost some chips with AK v KK.

Out in 667 in the 1+0 starting at 10.
Good move? I was way behind the pack, though I'd take a chance to try to double up.

[TwistedEcho]

151st in the 1st one, pushed my 9bb stack with 99 vs two limpers, guy behind had JJ.

Just lost a nice stack in the 4th one when i limped early with KK on an active table, and QT makes two pair on flop /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Exitonly]

Fell asleep during a few hands...

i gotta start getting some sleep..


Awake now though, and still in 6 of these + the 25k.

Stressing my one and a half montiors out.

[KneeCo]

out of #8 in last (or just about).

board is
T J 9 8 (2 spades)

I call all-in with QT, villain flipps spades and rivers the flush.

[fnurt]

This is fun, but alas, skunked so far!

[fnurt]

Finished 451st in the 9:45. That might be good for my first few points.

yeah, i only have one cash so far, im tired from being so black out wasted yesterday, and these stakes bore the [censored] out of me, but, it is pretty fun.

[TwistedEcho]

2 limpers, i push A2s to pick up pot, 1st limper decides J8 is good enough to make a stand /images/graemlins/smile.gif

poker is annoying sometimes

[KneeCo]

Still alive in just one tourney, out of the money in every one I've finished, I think I only ranked high enough to get points in the first one, if that.

Still in the 11:17 2$ NL HE.

[djg40]

Enjoy my dead money. Busted out of all that I entered.

[johnnybeef]

the only one that i did anything that will get points was event #1, took 102nd place, and im still pissed about it. as for tourneys remaining, i am still in the stud tourney, as well as the 9:30 and 10:00 nl. all three of which i am slightly below average.

I was trying to think of something that would attract the bigger stake players..

maybe a seperate larget sidebet? like $100? could get a $1000 pool going probably.

Only dont know if people would be interested in a $100 side bet for a colleective $19 in buyins. But these thigns are fun, and i think it's fu nto compare results w/ lots of people, and these buyins can get the most 2+2ers in.

-----

and i startted off on a bad note, but i think i might be able to make a run at defending myy title... doing well in the few i am still in.

Currently 31 at the break at the 9:45 and 62 at the 11.

[fnurt]

Eh, seems to me like we had a nice turnout, I'd hate to ruin it by jacking the stakes too much... big stakes players already have lots of ways to get action /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Exitonly]

touche.

I'm fine w/ keeping it at 10.. i'm no big stakes guy...

i just wanted to see more guuys like you playing it.

Almost had Gavin in.

Almost.

[KneeCo]

2nd at second break in 2$ 10:17.

anyone else still in?

[fnurt]

167th in 10:30. Think I got points in 2 events, no cashes, consistent with my play for the last month!

[TwistedEcho]

hotrod and myself at same table in 22:30, slightly above ave stack. Hes playing a solid tight aggressive style, im donking it up by pushing marginal hands vs limpers and getting lucky.

[Exitonly]

heh, i'm deepish in two $1's...

got points in 5 tournaments i think.


i'll go and collect all the data once i'm knocked out.. because i'm self centered bastard.

[TwistedEcho]

got points 3, should get points for 2 im still in. Need to go deep though to have any chance of winning this. (deep as in win both!)

[Hotrod0823]

Got points in 2, and still in 2.

Chips leader with 71 left in the 9:02.

I'm not doing the challenge, but is anyone still around in the 9:47 3+0?

[johnnybeef]

well?

Does anyone else think that these should payout more like a real tourney rather than winner take all? That way more people would have a chance each week. Like this week with 18 people have 3 spots pay of something like that?

[Exitonly]

i'm open to suggestions.. there'll be another one friday, we can talk about different scoring systems/payouts.

i think i prefer winner take all, but top 2 or maybe 3 could be alrigth with me.

[TwistedEcho]

I like winner takes all, unless we get LOADS of people entering these. Busted in the 22:30 in 73rd, guy open pushes 4 hands in a row, i raise AK he pushes his bb, he has aces. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

One left to go

[Hotrod0823]

I'm still in 1, lucky for me it is the biggest with 2500+ entrants. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[johnnybeef]

mine was 102/~2500 in event #1, and im currently 21/49 in the 10:02 $1.

ps. this is pretty fun.

[GoldenHorde]

Think I scored in 3 or 4 of them 1 cash so far and sitting 18th out of 100 in the last $2 of the night.

speaking of being hard as hell, htf did you guys post hands here during?? HOly [censored] man!!

yikes, i don't forsee someone beating Prana's score there. Thought i was doing alright.. i think best i can do is 1400 if i win this one.

i think mine was 545/2450 in #1.

still in the 11 pm 2$

i normally 8 table sngs and talk on im while im doing it, so im used to it. but, it was a little difficult when i was in the stud tourney as i actually had to think about the hands for a little bit. as far as the results, i may be able to compete with you if i can win the 22:02 nl. im in 3rd place with 19 left.

done, missed many +EV situations and made -EV situations I know playing this many tables but it was fun and definitely challenging. First stud tournament ever, only played it at all under 5 times.

GL

[GoldenHorde]

Finished with around 1200 points got AA busted all in PF for the 3rd time of the night to finish off my last tourney 63rd.

[Hotrod0823]

Just sat at the final table of the 9:02, 2 dollar.

Still can't touch the best scores. Will end aroun 1200 or so.


Good news is I made enough to cover my entry and the side bet.

I'm out. Going to bed, but it was fun. Last Tourney, I'd pushed two times in a row and then push over the SB raise while I was in the BB, my AQ lost to 88. Placed 24/2171, but too bad the money only gets good near the top.

[KneeCo]

event #1: 3$ NL HE: 545 of 2450 (190 pts)
event #2: 2$ NL HE: 885 of 2501
event #3: 1$ Lm St: 467 of 551

event #8: 2$ NL HE: 694 of 1423
event #9: 1$ NL HE: 1141 of 1145

so, 543 pts total.
Not my best night, the goal was to cash 3 times (not even close) and make at least 1 FT (close, but the donkey spiked a 7). Oh well, it was a blast anyway.

As for the proposed changes, moving to friday would be cool if it means more people could play, also I understand there is an o8 an friday, which is way better than stud for me.
As for paying multiple places, meh, I think unless we get a lot of people in, it's better to play winner take all.

for a grand total of 1194.9 points.

I'm still fuming from my bustout hand in #5 in which i looked down at QQ in the bb (which is 3k/6k with 300 ante) I have a stack of 11 orbits. utg is very weak tight, and raises 3xbb which was the typical opening raise for the table. my initial thought was to call and push any non ace or king flop, but the loose passive sb called making it an easy push. Both players call, and have AK and AQ respectively, an ace flops. Oh well, it was actually a fun change of pace and I may do it again next week.

[nfpceo]

Only scored 676...but the contest made these tourneys a lot more interesting.

Prana...awesome job on your consistency in almost all the events...

[adanthar]

You know, I read this thread and said 'I think I'd rather kill myself than play all of those'...but that scoreboard looks like a challenge. I like challenges.

If there's a 100 LL attached to this next week I'm down.
