How many of you have tried these out and have you had success with them? I'm thinking of taking $220 and either giving step 2 a go 10 times or step 3 a go four times. I don't know which would give me a better chance to have as many step 5 opportunities as possible.
I've watched a few tables and the play isn't very good at either step. Now once you get to step 5 it looks to be very tight until 100/200 level. What do you guys think? |

I think it all depends on time because theorically you should start at the lowest level that you have the patience to set through... if you a winning player (over the long run) starting at step 2 10 times should give you more then 4 step 3 entries... again it is up to you to decide if it is worth the extra time to play all those extra tourneys...

I've got the patience to play, not sure about the suckouts and bad beats that I usually take on Party. :-)
You are probably right though - 10 times at step 2 SHOULD yield me more step 5 chances if I play a solid tight game that has done well for me in the past. |

No other thoughts about these step sng's?
Here's my analysis...please tell me your opinions.... Regular $50 SNG vs Buying into step 3 of mini step for $50 (SNG structure the same) Party has a 50-30-20 payout in their regular sngs 1st would be $250 2nd would be $150 3rd would be $100 Step payouts are: 1st or 2nd would go to step 4 3rd or 4th would repeat step 3 5th or 6th would go to step 2 7th or 8th would go to step 1 9th is $4 So lets compare best case scenario in steps...finishing 1st or 2nd twice in a row. You still haven't won any $ but you get a chance for at step 5 where 1st is $2000, 2nd is $1000, 3rd is $500, 4th is $300 and 5th is $200. Rest is no $. If you finish 1st or 2nd in regular sng 2 sng's in a row you would win between $300-$500. Winning a 3rd one would win $250. (keeping it simple, i'm not going to include buy-ins in these numbers as they even out on both sides anyway) So $2000 win vs between $550-$750 for regular sng 2nd would be $1000 vs between $450-$600 for reg sng 3rd would be $500 vs between $400-$550 for reg sng 4th would be $300 vs between $300-$500 for reg sng 5th would be $200 vs between $300-$500 for reg sng No money vs between $300-$500 for reg sng In essence, if you don't finish in the top 3 on step 5, you don't win as much money as you would have won just playing 3 regular sng's in a row. But if you do finish in the top 3 and especially 1 or 2, you would net considerably more. Obviously the steps also provide some insurance for finishing outside the top 2 on step 3 and step 4 that the regular sng's don't give. You get to retry step 3/step 4 or back up to lower steps. I'm not sure how to equate that to monetary value. Thoughts? |
