Default Do any sites offer guaranteed overlay MTTs?

I'm pretty new to the world of MTTs, but I'm enjoying them. I've been scouting out MTTs w/ overlays, but it feels pretty useless to enter a tourney, simply because there's like a $200 overall overlay, which might goose the in-the-money players' payouts by like $5 each.

Are there any sites that regularly offer guaranteed overlay tournaments?? Like I think I remember UB used to do "$5,000 added" tournies, where they'd just add $5G to whatever the payouts generated by the buy-ins turned out to be. I think that was just a special promomtion though...not a regular schedule...

I didnt say that. I'm simply pointing out that people dont run around advertising big overlays that often.

A good example is the empire 50k. Used to always be a big overlay, but now its hit and miss.

I dont know of any sites that have guarenteed overlays, but if you are looking for overlays, empire isn't a bad place to start.

Almost all of the overlays that I knew that existed a couple of months ago are gone.

If your looking for them, obviously start on the smaller sites. They are looking to promote their site, and will have more promotions and "added" tournaments.

What size buy in are you looking for? What type of guaranteed money are you looking for?

Right now there is a 200k gauranteed registering on Full Tilt, and there is a high chance there will be an overlay, which happened last time and they forked over 70k! They're going to all lengths to prevent it but theres a chance. It's 200+15 maybe +16 I forget

I hope you aren't entering this one yourself. Now it is going to be full of Brown Trout.
