Well I decided to give this SNG month a go by adding 2 UB tables in Mini view with the rest of my games. Just been playing $10 games till I get used to the different games but I think its a good promotion. No rush to clear the bonus dollars afetrwards either.
General observations so far though. 1) The blind structure is less optimal than other sites in terms of hourly rate. 2) The play is nuts till there are 3-5 left, at which point the blinds are normally 20/40 and its real hard work. Feels more like the WPT than a $10 SNG. 3) The play with 3-5 left is actually decent, but they have no clue headsup. 4) I can't win with Kings.

How does the blind structure work, and how many chips you get. Regards ML |

1000 and they go up every 8 minutes. 5/10, 10/20, 15/30, 20/40, 30/60, 50/100 etc.

1) The blind structure is less optimal than other sites in terms of hourly rate. [/ QUOTE ] The blind structure, especially when it gets shorthanded, favors the better players since it's a 'timed' blind escalation rather than 'per # of hands' escalation. In comparison to Party, that is. Party, the blinds go up every 9-10 hands regardless of how many players. On UB, you can sometimes get 20 hands in when it's s/h. b |

Someone on recently said that they thought the Party blind structure was pretty close to optimal for hourly rate, I agree. |

Just cashed out of Stars, and I'm moving everything to UB for this bonus. Sounds like the structure is similar to Stars, which is good for me.
I'm going to have a problem clearing the bonus money though, since I'm terrible at both limit and NL ring games. |

Party 3-table SNGs are timed levels.

Yeah it's suprising to be ITM at 20/40 blinds and to finish at 30/60 blinds but I like it.

If that's true, then I'm depositing on ub tomorrow. You can practically fold your way into the money

Admittedly this was at the smallest SNG buy in, but I did see a guy not there make it to top 3 tonight. (I made a horrible boneheaded play, but we won't talk about that. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
