WTF??!?!
Looks like you could loop around freaking FOREVER playing those. I suppose it's great if you want to get the maximum amount of poker for hte least amount of money.
Just curious, what are your opinion on this stuff?

Curious. Once you get to the higher levels of the ministeps, only the top two ever seem to advance.
Compare this to the normal steps, where at Step 3, top three advance (like finishing in the money) and at Step 4, top four advance to the money one: step 5.
And then in the beginning of the ministeps, only #1 advances, and it looks like that's teh way those "step higher" steps work.
This is a curious little strategy of theirs...

Looks kinda cool. I think I'll give a mini-step a try. If nothing else it should give me some much needed tourny practice for a limited amount of $.

You've gotta give em credit. It's a brilliant way to generate a lot of rake while the players don't feel like they're paying that much themselves.
