Sunday Poker

[Chipaccrual]

Right then, I"m looking to improve my recent poor return in MTT"s and what better time to do it than a Sunday evening poker session.

Definitely going to give the Virgin Poker Festival qualifier one final stab, not sure what else to play at the moment.

Ideally, a tournament with plenty of runners happy to donk their chips to me, I make final table and cash for a decent return and feel good about my poker abilites.  

What"s everyone playing tonight ?   Anyone got any recommendations ?

If you"re brave enough to try and skip through the minefield that is big tourney qualifiers, the sunday brawl on Full Tilt is worth a bash. The event itself has a buy-in   of $240 ($200 to the prize pool, $40 as a scalp for each person knocked-out). I"ve played in this a couple of times and although unsuccessful, the standard of play wasn"t as high as I"d expected for such high prize money. I"m assuming this is because a large proportion of the field is qualifiers and most of the real big boys wait for other events later in the night.

last weeks had 18000 players,but with 10minute levels you will be in the money in no time(3000 paid)

Is there much chance to play in that or is it a bit of a shove and hope ?

In the Sunday Hundred Grand game, just wait for the best hands and shove - someone will call and you"ll either double up or bust. I tend to either go out in the first 1000, or I get paid. I"ve been deep a couple of times, but it"s just so fast that even with a decent stack, it"s tough in the late stages.  It"s shove or fold poker almost all the way.

Playing the Sunday Warm Up just now - with 15 min blinds, and 10000 chips, it feels likes "proper poker".

The Daily Fifty Grand at 20:00 BST evey day is an awesome game for $55.
