What type of tournament would you play if you won a $1,000 ticket?

italorohdrigues · Sep 15, 2020

So recently I won two tickets that for my current bankroll looks like 1k to me ($11 and $55) and I wonder what you type of tournament (bounty, freezeout, turbo, slow) or variant would you play if you had won a big ticket like that and you have any tips for these situations

It depends on where you've won this tickets.If possible,I'd rather play something like Double or Nothing in order to reduce the variance.If not, then I would definitely choose bounty tournaments.

Definitely a bounty tournament. You are able to triple your buy-in (or more) without having to win the tournament.
It is best to register on time for bounty tournaments to try and busy the fish early and collect their bounties

fundiver199 · Sep 16, 2020

I would choose the format, which you are most used to play at lower limits. I would probably not choose a turbo though, since I would want to make an experience out of this, especially the 55$ ticket. Its still poker, so just play your best, but also play only that one and try to pay attention to, what the good players are doing, that might be different from lower limits.

I like to play at single tables.The chances to get ITM are higher than long hours tourneys.

Deep stack so that I have more decisions to make and not feel the blinds changing the feel of the game too early

Just regular MTT, no turbo no bounty, would learn poker more

Without question, a PKO!

I'd drive it like I stole it too... :laugh:

My peference would to play the slow normal tournaments. Less luck, more tactical strategy and more wiggleroom to manouver.

Suzana2304 · Sep 17, 2020

My preference would be to play KO tournament .

qWald0 · Sep 24, 2020

I would play bounty tournaments

akmost · Sep 24, 2020

Definitely a deep stacked slow structured MTT and if I wanted to get paid before ITM or I had the feeling that my skill level is way off that buy in then a PKO.

If I were you I would play one of each variant since you won 2 tickets.

rachelle2291 · Sep 24, 2020

When you get tickets like these I always want to win at least some money with them and the best chance of that would be the bounty tourneys. So that is what I would probably use them for even though I am probably better at freezeouts

What type tournament would I play?

Hello. First, I would feel very fortunate. Very few get there. If I won a $1000 ticket, I would do everything under the sun to be prepared for that game. If I had a $1000 bank, I would play MTTs and also venture into some $25 SNGs.

For myself who plays micros, I would likely play a PKO as even just 1 or 2 bounties at a 1k buyin could be a nice increase to the bankroll.

TerryBLE · Sep 24, 2020

Like most, a PKO.Just don't go behind Bounty's with 72o, be patient.

A slow tournament, if it has a bounty included will be perfect haha but still a slow tournament is better for that $55 ticket. Regards.

PKO all day and night.

7CardKillR · Sep 26, 2020

Small field, normal speed,NLHE MTT, with moderate starting stacks

jcxmendes · Sep 26, 2020

I would play a KO tournament, trying to catch a balter!

HaroldHouse · Oct 17, 2020

I would want to play single table SnGs. In higher limits than Im use to, good solid poker could win out against better players at the higher levels in these short tournaments.

MAGICUZ · Oct 18, 2020

Definitely KO!

TeUnit · Oct 18, 2020

I would look for a guarantee(overlay), with no late entry, no rebuy, no multi entry.

schtiuky · Oct 21, 2020

Some ko tournaments for some fun

AmidamaruRu · Oct 25, 2020

Slow bounty would be a great option
