Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[RED-DOG]

Billy Two Rivers was one of my heros when I was nine or ten years old so heaven knows how Mrs Red knows about him.

 

It wasn't Mrs Red Ralph, it was my mam. (She would have been 17 or so when you were 10).

Perhaps Billy did have a Mohawk, and that's what she was reffering to. I'll ask when I see her.

Come to think of it. my hair does stick up a bit when it's too long.

This mornig it was frosty.

That means I can take my pickup into t' back field.

That means I can cut the blackthorn hedge.

Tht means that by tonight, I will look like a 3rd rate lion tamer who just had a bad day at the office.

Mind yerself!

So you're Siegfried and TK is Roy?

This (among other things) is what I fantasised about last night.

An eccentric billionare promises me a million pound prize if I finish in the top 3 of a 200 runner online comp. My entry is free, but I have to decide what level to play at. It can be anything from a freeroll to a $1000 buy in. The other players are unaware of my deal.

What level should I play, and why?

By "free entry" I assume the afore mentioned billionaire is providing the stake. So as you've already accepted a promise of money if you finish in the top 3 (accepting money for servcies rendered is called what ), what's another grand and the standard of play might/would/will/may be a little better with more chance of a man of your esteemed talents being respected rather than the usual all in fest that is invariably at the start of a freeroll.

That's the whole point Duke. I wouldn't want to be against 200 freerollers, but given the choice, I probably wouldn't want to be against 200 players who were of the $1000 buy in standard.

I'd play the freerollers as they'd be a weaker standard overall.

But loads of them just wouldn't care what happened. You couldn't make any moves, you could get 5 or 6 callers every pot. Weaker standard or not, that's a lot of bullets to dodge.

Same for me, if it was top 20 though i would probably go for $100 as they are always super easy tournaments to bully in towards the money.

A 200 runner comp would pay top 20 as far as everyone else was concerned, it's only me getting the top 3 deal.

Exactly which is why i would play a freeroll if it had to be top 3 and a 100fo if it was top 20.

The easiest tournaments to win/top3 are the ones with the weakest players, they are almost always found in freeroll's

Please feel free to bow to my superior knowledge in matters Papillon, Cormorants, & Worldly-Wiseness.

But - one to you here - I loved the turn of phrase you used in this thread the other day - "......a road less travelled.....". Lovely!
