Hi all

I've only ever played cash games for the last couple of years but have recently had a dabble at tourneys.  Last week I entered my first ever bounty hunter tourney and won it so getting a taste for them now.

Can someone decipher the above prize structure please?  What does 1 in 2 mean?  Does that mean 50% of all entries win a seat regardless of where you finish?  Am I just thick or is that confusing lol.

Thanks

    Half the field gain entry to the next day.

    This goes on until next Sautrday where the Survivor then moves onto a normal MTT Structure.

    Its a 2kGTD tournie and there is usually overalay.  It is a 64£ entry tournie and needs around 30 runners to break even but usually gets between 20 and 25.

    Winner usually takes a grand.

    BUT if you are gonna play the survivor tournie then you have to make sure you are free, potentailly, all week.  So make sure you don't have anything going on.

    Hi m8 the survivor starts tonight at 7.30 for £1  if there are 100 entered 50 go thru to tmoro
     where the buy in increaes to £2 for those not entered
    this continues each day thru to the final on Saturday
    so the buy ins thru the wk are sun£1 mon £2 tues £4 wed £8 and so on, with half the field on any given night progressing to the next night

    Which half would that be then?  The top half?  Bottom half?  Middle half?

    does this mean if i pay half the bi i only play a quarter of the field with x2 the amount of chips, thus eliminating 1/3 of the field. if i did this in half the time required do i still get the full amount or do i have to rebuy?
