    If the top 40 advance to the championship, why would players 26 through 40 need to play in the satellite with 6 seats available?

    I 90% won't put enough volume to be in the running but a better satellite would be 4 advance from 51-100th IMO. Also was the wording a mistake? "Top 40 goes to championship" but "6 from 25-50" wins a satellite?

    Good work on putting this together again SBR anyway! And good luck to everyone. How much was needed to make it to the finals last year? I think I can play only twice per week max.

    3 month contest is too long...will be filled with all the super users and bobby waves types who have no life and can fold all day. One month was hard enough to get volume in.

    Nice. I think 3 months is a good idea. Will weed out the 1 month luck runs. Although ill probably miss a few but im sure others will too. Looking forward to it.

    Great contest- but are these points going to be actual points or are they going to be poker points with a 5x rollover?

    orly? Nino has 10401 in daily winnings to 1176 in entry fees, for a BROI of about 8.84...far better than you chump.

    You might want to spend less time mocking better players than you, and more time trying to desperately cling to the ass-end of the leaderboard you seemed to care about so much until about a month ago...can't imagine why you've stopped posting on the virtues of being on it in the last month

    It says betpoints. If rollover is required I think it would have said "poker pts" -- unless its a typo, I would say no rollover

    very top-heavy, second only gets roughly $1000 at walmart conversion rate.... should be 1st getting 27.5 to 30 percent of total $$$...... second should be around $2500 if first is 5k........ little skewed in that regard, but still a helluva score for whoever sbr picks to win it!!!!!!

    Sorry donk, everyone knows that bobbo only participates in games with a minimum 600% overlay, so you'd have to pay him 5:1 on any hands he wins...wise decision on bobbo's part to avoid real poker, there's no other way he can come out ahead

    Since you have no math skills, it's easy to see why your numbers are off. Niņo has a ROI of 527%, compared to my 638%.

    Learn to read bobbo, learn to read...nino's tournament winnings and BROI are as I stated. I obviously didn't count freerolls or contest winnings which had nothing to do with tournaments, and nothing to do with how ROI is calculated in any universe, even yours.

    Notice you're still oddly silent about the virtues of being on a leaderboard when called out on it by me, one of the many ahead of you on it. What happened? You seem to have thought this was a valuable measure of skill (despite what the rest of us knew to be true):

    Quote Originally Posted by bobbywaves View Post

    Why did your criteria for success change yet again in the last month?

    Hi TDB,

    Where do you get those numbers?
    Are they available for all players?
