Wsop Steps Ps

[bcndiamond]

Is anybody playing these steps ?
If you happen to win Step 6 they deposit 12k in your account, so your not forced to play the wsop.
Looks like a pretty good deal with only 6 steps, with the top two advance to the next step.

If you save up like 4 entries for each step, you have a decent chance to win a package.. i think

Highest I've been so far is level 3. Got knocked out first hand with KK vs AA and didn't improve.

Hm.. I just played 13 step 1 yesterday.
I advanced to step 2 five times and now have 3 tickets left for step 2 and one for step 3.

So far so good. Only thing is im having quite a dilemma right now.
Im sure I wont get there with 4 tickets in step 2/3.
So if I quit now it would have been a waste of money.

If I decide to continue ill sacrifice half my roll ~1k trying to get as many step 2 tickets possible to have a decent chance reaching step 6 with atleast 3 tickets.

Thing is these steps have a turbo format wich ive never been a big fan of.
On the upside, If all fails I can easily redeposit around 500eu and grind 50nl again. With lots of Sng experience richer.

Opinions would be nice =_(

I got to Step 5 on my last crack at these and then produced one of the most epic fails ever and gave up

Where did you start and in how many tries ?
Was just watching the step 6 games, it's nice to know those arent turbo and have 3k starting chips.

Made it to level 5 this morning and got bad beated 2 minutes in with KK vs 5 7 off (I was BB, he was button and went all-in). He caught his straight. Damn that is frustrating.

I did that from a single step 1 game. I don't know if the structure has changed but when I tried them, they were very generous about not dumping you out provided you finished in the top 3/4. The top 1/2 usually progressed and the next 1/2 stayed at the same level or just dropped back one. Any other position and you were toast but they seemed fairly easy at face value.
