Title: WSOPE Monopoly
Post by: SuuPRlim on August 27, 2010, 11:15:59 PM
Call me sad (which you will, and I am) but i always wanted to play a sick high stakes monopoly comp!

I think the WSOPE should put a £1k 36max 6 handed monopoly shootout on winner takes all

Or Blonde should arrange something like that, winnign 36dimes @ monopoly would be the sickest thing ever

According to wikipedia...

The SpongeBob SquarePants game board includes a Plankton piece that moves every time someone rolls a 1 with the dice (if a player rolls two 1s, the Plankton piece moves two spaces), and the game is over when it reaches the end of the board.

Assume you mean light blues rather than purples.

I'm getting an EV of around $80 or $85 (depending on opponents strategy of whether or not to stay in jail for all 3 gos) for a full set of fully developed oranges and $37 or $39 for a fully developed set of light blues.

By my crude calcs, light blues $1070 to buy and get tooled up, oranges less than double that at $2060

My stats are taken from this page...

http://www.tkcs-collins.com/truman/monopoly/monopoly.shtml

and like yours show the breakeven point of the light blues to be the lowest number of opponent rolls.

Given the numbers stated above, the developed oranges yielding more than twice as much as the developed light blues, but costing less than twice as much, how is this possible?

actually dark blue though we have a problem with people's interpretation of colours. mayfair/park lane in the uk, boardwalk/park place in us

the problem with looking at fully developed properties is that for almost all colour groups you get a higher roi if not fully developed, 3 houses usually being optimum

if u only have 3 houses on all ur streets u could get raped by the street arreast card

get raped by the what? whatever it is you mean it's accounted for in the table I posted above which is taken from a computer simulation of millions of games

another advantage of not fully developing is that you can tie up all the houses in the game so noone else can build. once you stick hotels on a 3 property group you've freed up 12 more houses for your oppos to build

Ill see you in court dave, then please go to jail, proceed directly to jail and dont pass go.

Online is probably the way forward, ship the monies about on poker sites.

Had a go on that pogo site that someone posted. Seemed all good, but I couldnt change any of the game options. I think you just need to sign up, Ill check at somepoint over the weekend.

OT but I've been wracking my brain on this since I saw the thread.
Does anyone remeber a brittish movie (think it was around the 80's) based on a monopoly-esque baord game. Had someone like a dennis waterman/tony slattery in it. They play a mock high stakes monopoly rip off game?? Did I imagine it
