Last night I decided to try this game at UB, and I must say I absolutely loved it. I played 3 single table SNG's, didn't place, but feel very confident I can learn some strategy to really put me ahead of the donkish dead money competition. (was that redundant? lol)

Anyway, just wanted some other opinions on it, I saw the stupidest plays being made last night and thought to myself, I can probably crush this game. These people might be lucky, but all in all they are clueless regarding shadowing...etc.

First off....wicked nice avatar. =)

2nd....yes, UB is the only site that has it I believe. Since posting I've placed in 11 out of 15 single table SNG's. I'm not claiming to be great at this new game whatsoever.....I think I'm just proving how much dead money is at these tables having fun with absolutely no clue. If you take this game serious before it grows, it could possibly be a temporary goldmine.

GL spanners.

I just checked the rules out at http://www.ultimatebet.com/eliminati...ck/whatis.html
I dont play on UB (actually i dont even play poker right now, but thats another story)

Sounds pretty crazy, so top 3 out of 6 are paid? I guess if theres idiots playing then it would be profitable.

Seems like the best way would obviously be to stay out of the eliminations by minbetting everything early, and make sure you are not coming last... and if you were last youd have to bet big. Once you make ITM then gambool. Just like a real SnG lol.

This is from google, dont know how relevant it is tho
