Frosty Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 As a poker newbie, only really playing low value spin and gos, PokerStars have today given me a $109 WCOOP ticket. Looking at it, there is lots of tourneys to choose from, any advice on how to play it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke_B_123 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 @blackdust When's the target tourn? 1 minute ago, Frosty said: As a poker newbie, only really playing low value spin and gos, PokerStars have today given me a $109 WCOOP ticket. Looking at it, there is lots of tourneys to choose from, any advice on how to play it? It's pretty impossible. If you only play low spin and goes you're gonna be in largely unchartered territory and probably vs some solid players. Just be ready for a long session and you'll need patience.. I'd honestly probably just try and build a tight table image and stick to that for a few levels when the blinds aren't going to crush you, but there's no 1 size fits all solution! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrightmeow Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) You lucky mofos got all those tickets while I spend thousands in tourney buyins and wagering on slots every month and they gave me 22$ ticket . Hahaha no but for real just stick to ABC poker and with a little bit of luck you can do it. @Frosty good luck!

Looking at the type of tournaments available, I dont want a Satellite, I am unlikely to make Cash, so a PKO is best option to try and pick some bounties?

I get loyalty bonuses all the time too I dont think it matters if you deposit for a while or not you just have to play a decent amount I guess, Stars are pretty good with casino promotions and free no deposit bonuses with very low wagering, currently the best in the business for that imo.

Prize money to 1621 and took just the one bounty. Won $30 so not too bad. Edited September 7, 2020 by Kev40 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
