Gday All, Just after some advice re MPC next week thinking about going over and going in Event 5 100k guaranteed . Whats the go with Flight 1 Flight 2 (repecharge) Flight 3 (repacharge)??? If your in still after day1 Flight 1 do you still keep playing in flight 2&3 or do you just resume when day 2 starts? Has any of you guru's played in MPC in the last few years? Was it good? Am i too much of a Donk? I mean i only play at PHCC once a week and a bit online. Will they chew me up a spit me out? Cheers Jess :?

You don't have to deal over there.

Hi Jess,

I will be playing in this event and it is a repechage event so this means that if you get eliminated from any of the Day 1's you can play in the next available day 1.

It's basically a big rebuy event but if you rebuy you have to start a day 1 all over again.

I am starting in the Thursday Day1, so if I make it through that one I come back on the Sunday for Day 2. But if I get eliminated I come back the next day to play the next Day 1.

I hope that makes sense.

As to the field? Well in these tournaments at these buy in levels is pretty soft, and I would recommend just playing tight aggressive poker. I don't think you will be amazed or should fear the competition as most of your opponents will be pub poker players anyway.

Ahh ok seems to make sense, so there is no disadvantage chip stack wise for day 2 if you play in either flight 1,2 or 3?? Cheers again
