    Count me in, using 50 from my winnings this month.

    To anyone considering, don't let my (or anyone else's) presence discourage you from joining. Last time, I was near the bottom and last month's winner was middle of the pack this time. In other words, there is going to be a fair bit of luck involved so everyone has a decent shot, and its a lot of fun chatting/reading about everyone's tournaments each day.

    I'm going to try to be in this by the 1st. And no I don't want a loan to play. I have like 2 days left for DS's loan and would like to from now on use my new found credit standing wisely rather than just because I can.

    Just making sure, even though it's pretty clear. The ME tourney itself will not count towards anything? I won't be able to play in that, so as long as it's just the 60 players, I'll be in.

    We will pay four or five people. Cannot pay too many more than that with only 25 people or so in the field. Obviously if I get more I will adjust the payouts accordingly.

    Your no poker slouch yourself.

    Not paying ten, ten people will receive points toward the standings. At the end of contest/month the top 4 or 5 will be paid out points. (depending on number of entries.)

    I know you enjoy playing Poker very much and you just need a little Luck to go with your
    pretty good Poker skills, GL hope you doing much better in June

    Ireland your a prince amongst men. I'm humbled by the generosity. I would normally just send them back out of humility but I do miss not being amongst you guys in the thick of it. Even when I'm losing I feel like a winner just because of players like you guys. Now excuse me while I go have my period & find a new training bra cause man I sound pretty Gay right now. But it did make me feel great so thank you sir.

    While I'm not entering because I don't play these everyday my guess is that the differences between this (flat schedule with many spots qualifying for points) and the payout of the tournament (few spots paid with sharp increase in payouts) are significant enough to make this -EV for anyone except those who put this before winning in the daily tournaments.

    I would think the prize pool this would produce (in comparison to daily awards) wouldn't justify changing your strategy until late in the month at which point those who incorrectly adjusted too early are already the likely winners...

    LOL, you guys are both too nice for this forum. With all of the nastiness and negative attitude here sometimes, this is a welcome change.

    Cheers!

    Just to clarify I'm not suggesting that your contest doesn't look like fun... Just suggesting that either a more top heavy point structure or fewer payouts might work better since SBR's payouts are so contrasting...

    We are only actually paying out the top 4 or 5. Plus this contest is only for 50 points so the pool at the end does not justify trying to win this as opposed to the actual daily tournaments(winning one would daily would equal approx the month long prize) I have busted numerous times 10-15 trying to accumulate chips when I could have just as easily folded to the top 10 and got points for this thing.
