Fun Fiver at Half Time

Quick reminder - at the unusual starting time of 1.20pm today, there is a £5 (well, £4.75 + £0.25) Half Time Tournament.

It is real turbo stuff - 1 minute blinds - but with a £2,000 Guarantee, it needs about 400 runners to avoid overlay. 

If you fancy a fun punt for a fiver, the lobby is HERE


Is this value?

Well right now (11.25am) it has this many runners:

    Tell you what, this might be such great value that I'll have to dob in a fiver. That's another £5 of value for you lucky lads.

    I mean, it's not as if it will take much time, I could be in & out in minutes.
     
    If we don't have 200 by the time it starts, I'm IN.

    With 93 runners now, this is playing 23 places - a quarter of the field.

    We have just 15 minutes to register.

    Tempted?

    Remember, this needs 400 to cover.

    If you knew how bad I was at NLH, even 12,000 would not be enough.

    1 minute to go.....

    You may be right, Conor, I don't know if it's a mistake, or intentional, they did want the money to go down a long way.

    Doubt anyone will complain in a £2k Guaranteed that has over £1,000 of overlay though.

    I'll mention it to them for next time & let you know.
