Default Pokeroom Tournaments?

Are these games similar to Stars & Full Tilt as far as stack play?

1500, blinds move every 12 minutes, no antes.

You will be playing push/fold poker if you dont significantly increase your stack in the 1st hour.

The rebuys are pretty good, single rebuy and add on, so 4500 chips, and for some reason players either wait until they bust to rebuy, or not at all. I would guess 20% rebuy right away.

I'm not too sure how unique pokerroom is when it comes to blinds size v. stack size when nearing the final table. You can be sitting 6th in a MTT and only have 20 or so BB's.

As far as the rebuy's go, they are wonderfully fishy. I would say far less than 20% rebuy early in tourneys, more like 2-5%. The rest just rebuy when they bust. Early in the 20k Guaranteed, you can build a nice stack playing weak tight. Just wait for people to send their stack over.

The Daily's, $50+4, have a slightly different structure with blinds going up every 15 mins.

Good luck!

i like playing on Proom's tourneys. the competition sucks, the fields are medium size and the payout structure seems a little flatter (which I like.)

Low level MTTs on pokerroom are the closest thing that you can get to a mindless bankroll builder. I usually find myself there if I am getting low in funds.

I struggle playing there when I am running well, b/c the optimal way to play is very tight until everyone slows down, then come after the blinds of the easily identifiable weak-tighties (they sometimes explain to the table how they have played 4 hands all day [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]). I tend to bluff off my chips stupidly unless I concentrate

only a couple. the Euro Daily (12pm), about 150, US Daily (5pm), 220 people, "long kiss goodnight," 100. those are all $50.

they have a $100 on sunday, about 450 people. $300 on saturday, about 150-200.

Proom used to be my main site when I first started online. I've only started playing their again so I might be missing some tourneys

In the $5 multi's, if you get a hand like AA or KK early, just push all in....someone will call you...

works everytime....

If you can get to around T6000 and up before the 1st break, you should be ok....
