Default anyone going for a full tilt jersey?

i'm wondering if anyone is going for a full tilt baseball jersey this month?

they just started a 69+6 sit and go, that pays out like a normal one (50-30-20).

but there is a leaderboard for them, that lasts the whole month.

at the end of the month, the top 40 winners get a baseball jersey.

i don't know how many i can afford if i get off to a cold slump, but i'll give it a shot. they do have 11+1 satellties for a token.

If those SnGs are as loose as FTP SnGs usually are, then this is a +EV decision.

But I wouldn't play for a month to get a jersey, especially when I could just pay 100 dollars to get a kicking New York Giants #4 David Sklansky custom jersey and be the envy of 2+2.

that's my thinking.

i'll see what kind of numbers are needed on the leaderboard whenever it goes up, and try to guess how often i will need to play.

but it's not like theres any extra juice for it, so theres nothing to lose (in fact, the tournament is 69+6, so juice is actually .90 less than would expect)

That combined with the fact anything FTP promotes heavily, or is associated with their pros at all brings out more fish than usual, so these should actually be better than usual. Less rake is even nicer though.

I normally play there, and play their SNGs, so I'll be doing this since the rake % is better at 69+6 than 50+5 and I think there will be some fishier play than usual.

i've noticed the fishy play so far. i can't think of any other sng's (other than steps) with a satellite, but my guess would be a fair amount of these players get in using a token, from a $11 satellite. might have found a new home for the month

Default This has been a good experience for me

I'm about 99% sure I'll finish in the top 40 and get a jersey, and I've made a nice profit to boot. This has been super-good for me.
