    Anyone here try the win 5 in a row Jackpot SnG's?

    Its $25,500 for 5 $5 + $1 sng's.

    Say you have 9 other friends join with you and one winner.

    About 2550 each?

    Now i dont intend doing it (Cuz i dont have 10 freinds :P)

    But seriously do you think this could be done?

    Youd be done for collusion. Amaru is the only person I know capable of winning 5 in a row.

    Heres the overlay after paying the extra rake for the Jackpot

    Name Overlay Buy-in Prize
    Fort Knox $0.14 $50+7 $100,000 for winning 6 in a row, $750 for being 1st and 2nd in 6 consecutive
    Rio N/A $20+3 $25,000 for winning 6 in a row, $300 for being 1st and 2nd in 6 consecutive. Jackpot needs to reach $46.6k for the tournament to be +EV
    Maui $0.07 $5+0.75 $15,000 for winning 5 in a row, $200 for being 1st and 2nd in 5 consecutive
    Dirty Dozen N/A $2+0.35 $2,000 for winning 4 consectuive

    Thats what i thought, but still suprised no one tried it or havent hear of it?

    Is the standard overly high on the $5 games?

    Oh I'd forgotten how much I loved that thread. The 1st post from him is pure comedy gold.

    -had his 1st ever winning month
    -from €20 deposit on maxed on cc
    -unexpected success at 10c OMAHA
    - used to really struggle at €5 HE sit n goes
    - but has now in past few weeks achieved a sng rate of success that Ivey, Antonius and the boys wouldn't achieve in 50 years of trying (won 20 out of 23 of them) ooh and if you keep reading apparently he took a lot of bad beats in that run, didn't have great cards, and his HU was sketchy!

    Lol, long live Aramu!

    I tried the $50 games a while back .. 6 in a row for $100,000

    I won first 3, lost the 4th HU KQvsKJ all in preflop, won the next 2 games - got $750 bonus as consolation.

    It is definitely do-able with a sufficient roll imo

    I feel a prop bet coming on....

    Nobody ever said it wasn't do-able, just that you couldn't put a timeframe or number of games on when you would do in!!

    I've won 6 in a row before, I've also finished OTM in 15 in a row. It would take a huge amount of luck to win 5-6 Stts in a row, regardless of what level you're playing at.

    Somebody may well do it within the terms of the promotion, but you won't hear of a lot of people doing it. Poker sites aren't stupid, everything they do is set up for them to make money.

    I did win 4 in a row and came 3rd in the 5th a long while back. It was at the $30 level on pokerroom.
    It was the most phenomenal run of good cards and good fortune I have ever encountered. It was in the midst of a run where I came ITM in 14 STTs in a row, and bubbled the 15th. There was a post about it at the time where people generally told me I was full of **** :D
    I don't blame them really, but to this day I remember that morning vividly... and am fully sure it will never happen again :(

    I'd forgotten I'd posted on that thread. Just looking now and I think I can claim the credit for starting the ball rolling when I said the following on the first page. :D

    Amaru,
    Are those figures Tribeca/Paddypower? There was some promotion a while back of 'win 5 nineseat SNGs in a row at minimum $5 level, win $2500 bonus'.
    Not sure if that promotion is ongoing or not ???????


    The madness then commenced !

    I once won 5 live stts in a row one night and was 2nd in the 6th i still went home unhappy because i got a rotten beat in the 6th. Think 3 in a row online is my best.
