    June SBR Poker Contest Signup
    With May winding down its time to startup a new contest for June. For those who have not participated below are the rules if your interested.

    Entry Fee: 50 SBR Points, YOU MIGHT AS WELL JOIN CAUSE ONLY TOP THREE ARE GETTING PAID IN SATELLITES NOW.

    THis tourney will last from Wednesday 6-1 thru 6-23 and will involve the Monday-Friday SBR main event satrellite tourneys. Payouts will occur to winners at the end of the month for those that finish at the top of the standings.


    This contest rewards top 10 finishes instead of just the top three.

    Points will be awarded as follows. (Note these are points for standings alone and not actual points that I will be sending you)

    60 player satellite. Points accumulate for the month.

    1st- 10 Points
    2nd- 9 Pts
    3rd- 8 pts
    4th- 7 pts
    5th- 6 pts
    6th- 5 pts
    7th- 4pts
    8th- 3pts
    9th- 2 pts
    10th- 1 pt



    IF you participated in this last month you realize it’s a lot of fun checking in and chatting up the other guys. Please forward the link to this to anyone you think may be interested in participating.


    Post up the 50 points to me if you are interested in participating for June. You are not considering in until points are sent. Do not wait until after you place in a tourney to try and sign up.

    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.

                        He said top 10. The way it is now with SBR is they only pay out 3, this will be paying out 10.

                          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.)

                                            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!

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.

                                                        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.
