I've got one freeroll. Can't decide if I am going to play limit tonight or NL tomorrow. I'm more comfortable playing NL tournys but I have the max extra chips and I'm thinking thats a bigger advantage in limit.

So anyway.. who is playing tonight?

I'm playing tonight. If anyone has any advice for big limit tourneys, please PM me! Also any links to previous threads about playing big limit tourneys would be highly appreciated.

I dont get these. Can someone explain these tournaments to me? Whats all this extra chips BS?

Everyone gets 1k chips by default. You can then earn up to 1000 extra by either playing a certain amount of raked hands or by winning (placing?) in SNGs. I'll be starting with 2k chips.

Whats your PP name? PM me if you don't want it public.

I decided to sign up for tonight as well. I'm other1 there too. I'll have 2000 starting chips.

Oops. I misspoke. You can add up to 2000 extra.

I added 2000 chips. Not sure if that's smart since I'm trying to qualify for tomorrow's tournament too and I only have 200 extra chips left. Hopefully I just win tonight.

I only added 1000 because I thought you only could add 1000.

I still have 1600 more.. I guess if I don't win tonight I'll just have to win another seat into tomorrow's and use the rest of my chips.

BTW - I got placed at Table #1. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Nice, I'm on table 2. It's very nice and loose.

BTW, the sub-qualifiers are getting tough to win.

4395 at the 2nd break.. blinds are about to increase to 100/200. other1, it looks like you're in bad shape, good luck. It turned out people weren't actually playing "loose" as described before.. they were playing monster hands for value. Anyhow, I'm gonna have a lot of trouble if I wanna win, as the players at my table are fairly good.. aggressive and mix it up very well [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
