| Posted by: djcolts at February 7, 2005, 11:43 am | | Topic: Carib Sun $50k added Forum: Bonus Whores | I finished 108th.
I was at 17K in chips, blinds at 800/1600, Avg stack 13K.
I got AJo (one club) in MP. I raised 3200 to 4800. The BB called - two players.
AQ5 with two clubs. BB bet around 7K. I went all in - he called.
He had Q8c. Turn was a blank. River was a club. Bummer - I was out. Would have had 34K in chips if I would have survived the river.
So close...so close. | | Static Link |

So much for tournaments. Actually with those cards, I would've lost even more than 22$ at a 0.25/0.50 table! | | Static Link |
| Posted by: whackadoo at February 6, 2005, 12:11 pm | | Topic: Carib Sun $50k added Forum: Bonus Whores | | I clicked register now 5 seconds after the register time started. i didn't get in. Damn that ot woman in a bikini. I looked at her and looked back at the screen and I didn't get in. Curse her big boobies. | | Static Link |

good luck whores
as for best $ overlay... Bodog 250K tourny is today as of last night it had about a $3,000 per player overlay only 50 players signed up.
Now if you just had an extra 2k laying around for the buy in this would be a great deal I think it only pays top 3 spots Bodog fucked this one up every way possible | | Static Link |

I'm in, too, let's hope someone can make it to the final table... or at least into the money. Got also stuck at the retrieving information screen for like 5 minutes, been worried, but it's all good now. | | Static Link |

I am. But I was worried for awhile there. I got stuck in "retrieving information" land.
Fucker filled up fast too.

I wonder if you could play the tourney from all of the crypto skins at the same time... | | Static Link |

So how do we find out if they are adding the money?
I would assume that there was 1.5+ hours of downtime in January no? | | Static Link |
| Posted by: fluffwhore at February 4, 2005, 3:25 pm | | Topic: Carib Sun $50k added Forum: Bonus Whores | UKbetting, Interpoker can Classic poker also send me e-mail about this, so I'm guessing this is Crypto wide.
Absolutely no reason to play this at CS. I think I'll enter it via Inter. | | Static Link |

I don't know the fancy formula to calculate overlay, but $50k is a huge chunk of change to add... 1000 players x $20 = $20k, so they're adding 250% to the prize pool...
$50,000/1,000= $50 overlay
There is no single tournament that provides this good of an overlay. The ones that come close are frequently 100+10 type tournaments. | | Static Link |
