As I posted in another thread, I can't play in the WSOP due to my stupid [censored] insensitive friend planning his marriage on the beginning weekend of the main event

Heh.... I'm getting married June 24th. I hadn't planned on going to the World Series but ended up playing that satellite anyways. When I won, it didn't take much time at all to convince the fiance that we needed to extend our honeymoon and move the 2nd part of it to Vegas [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

missed in a coupla Stars $33 rebuys.
Played 8 double shootouts. Only 2nd table I made, got the $1k for 2nd in a deal, so I'm not down as much $$ as I should be.. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

anyone try the party $300's yet?

[Jurollo]

I think Party's structure in those sucks, 1/45 get a seat, plus a large tourney fee.

Heh, was watching the last tables yesterday, 'pulling a cubeout' may be a new party phrase. They were down to 17 or 18 (14 got a seat) with 4 or 5 short stacks (< 20K), average around 35-40K. cubeout had about 65K chips and decided to play QQ vs another big stacks KK. Lost about 55K chips and busted out on the next hand.

Lets do the math:

Party $300+28 (1 for every 45)
Stars $615+35 (1 for every 18)

Lets say you play 45 tourneys in Party and 18 in Stars to get your seat.

Party: 45*300 = $13,500 45*28=$1260

They give you the $10000 seat, $1500 cash and hotel worth $2000 !!

So 10000+1500+2000-13500-1260 = -1260

And this is assuming the hotel is worth the $2000 ( I think we're losing another extra $500 here)

Stars: 18*615 = $11070 18*35 = $630

They give you the seat $10000, $1000 cash and free hotel acomodation ($2000 worth according to Party)

So $10000+$1000+$2000-$11070-$630=$1300 (You win money !!)

So, + $1300 versus -$1260

What is the best deal?
