Also, as the point about a lower +EV indicates, being qualified will allow for a much more aggressive game than most players. gl next month everyone else. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: goofball at September 25, 2006, 12:30 pm | | Topic: today!!!***1million PartyPoker MONSTER freeroll!!!*** Forum: Bonus Whores | | Just to clarify: Luckyfish was abolutely correct. I received a reply form Party that said there was no refund of multiple entries into the Monster grand final. Of course qualifying again means winning at least $400 so I plan to be playing each monthly anyway. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: gurgeth at September 25, 2006, 5:36 am | | Topic: today!!!***1million PartyPoker MONSTER freeroll!!!*** Forum: Bonus Whores | Bah, I kinda hoped they'd calculate the value of each of the 8000 entries come May and if you have more than one refund that amount to your account (Whilst subtracting that amount from the main freeroll). In retrospect, that was prob unrealistic, although I'm not sure how much I trust their FAQ:
General questions
8. What can I win in the monthly offline events?
The prize pool for each monthly event will be $125,000 ect
and further down
Monthly Offline Tournaments
6. What will the prize pool be for the offline tournaments?
The prize pool for each monthly offline tournament will be $250,000.
hmmm. Any chance they'd be persuaded to offer something if enough people asked? If not only advantage for extra entries is limiting the field for the main event. Oh and not having to fold almost every hand near the bubble like last night ... | | Static Link |
| Posted by: luckyfish at September 25, 2006, 1:21 am | | Topic: today!!!***1million PartyPoker MONSTER freeroll!!!*** Forum: Bonus Whores | You dont get any refund, from their FAQ:
Will I receive a refund if I win multiple entries into the PartyPoker.com Monster Grand Final Tournament?
No. However, remember that each $1 Million Monster Monthly Freerolls will have a $1 million prize pool, so you could more win cash even if you have already won an entry into the PartyPoker.com Grand Final.
They are just retarded sending out automated emails which are not adjusted for this event.
Oh yes and it is obviously +EV for them if you keep qualifying for the $100k weeklies. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: goofball at September 24, 2006, 9:32 pm | | Topic: today!!!***1million PartyPoker MONSTER freeroll!!!*** Forum: Bonus Whores | Whew.... made it in at 825 for $400 and entry into the final
Just knew I was gonna bubble at 1001-1100 as I had only 6k chips with blinds at 3k/6k
But my table was full of cool guys and they all put the brakes on for me and a couple of other short stacks so we could limp into the money. My blind was 2 away that would put me all in when the 1000 came. Naturally after that, players were going out by the dozens every hand.
What puzzles me is I got this email from Party:

Dear BIGDUMBWHORE
Congratulations on winning a Monster Grand Final qualifier.
You have been registered to the Monster Grand Final tournament to be held on May 26th 2007 16:00 EST.
Please keep in mind that there will be no refunds for single entries.
Do you know you can go on winning multiple entries to the Monster Grand Final tournament?
That's right but you must play your first Monster Grand Final entry first and any additional entries... | | Read Entire Entry |
| Posted by: maletaja at September 24, 2006, 2:35 pm | | Topic: today!!!***1million PartyPoker MONSTER freeroll!!!*** Forum: Bonus Whores | I played and finished 2700 i think.Beginning was nice i built my stack 15k-20k.
Then blinds 600-300 button made 3x raise .I saw AJ in BB .I dont know that i thought i went instantly allinn.And he called with AQ...Same stack as i had about 15k chips.
Mayby it was mistake or not but i was out.
Before tourney I thought that i need about 20k chips (starting chips 5k ) to make money,but guys do you see strong bubble?I think that 20k or even 30k hadnt gurantee me everything.
So when there are more than 1300 left do your own game and dont smell money.
Actually 100k was quite easy tourney.4300 entrance.So basically if u fold all hands u get ticket to the million event.And there was no bobble as well
I did some calculation.If i play 6 sit and go tourney.100k ticket costs average 66$ if you are average player. 100k EV is 25$+125$+0.15*2500$=400-500$
Pretty good overlay do u think?And players are limited 8k players
Ok i have left 7 times to qualify Monster freer... | | Read Entire Entry |
| Posted by: m_reed05 at September 24, 2006, 12:18 pm | | Topic: today!!!***1million PartyPoker MONSTER freeroll!!!*** Forum: Bonus Whores | I played. Got knocked out just under 3000 left. Played well early, built a pretty good stack (about 3x the average). I got stuck in neutral for a long time, then lost a few pots and was down below the average.
With about 8500 left and blinds at 300-600, utg opens with a min raise to 1200, 2 callers behind him, and I look down at AsQs. There's already 4500 in the pot, and I don't want to invest that much of my stack into a 4 or 5 way pot, so I push all my chips in the middle (probably a mistake). Everyone folds around to the guy directly to my right and he instantly calls me with 55 (what?!), and this was for over half his stack. Flopped missed both of us, the turn gave me an open ended straight draw, a flush draw, and two overs, but I missed them all on the river, and went home.
I've already got my spot reserved for next months.
