Anything won associated with the package would be shared.

I am actually behind by 1 freakin point for the Series Point Leader $50k becuz this guy ran deep in 2 CPC events and also FT the Turbo last night.(damn turbos) I think we should use some of our profit to play the PLO tomorrow becuz a min cash will put us in the lead. The PLO is $350/$100 rebuys and I would like to buy-in for $350 and add a double stack for $100 If I make it to the ADD ON period I can buy a Double ADD ON which brings the total to $650
Let me know what you guys think. The percentages would be a small portion of each investor to maximize our chance for the $50k promotion

I'm in as long as you feel strong in PLO.

Do u think taking a shot at the PLO is better than playing as many turbos as u can that don't get in the way of the other events? If so, I have no problem with whatever you think is best.

I'm down for whatever everyone else agrees on. I guess our main concern right now is if you have any plo experience. If not, I'd say stick to the turbos.

At this point, I'm fine with you doing whatever you think will lock up the 50k that is still good for the package. I mean we are up enough now that you can basically risk a few buyins for the sake of winning an extra 50k imo. It's up to you and I'll go with whatever you decide.

Only thing with the PLO though is that I hear it's really easy to get 1k or more deep the way it plays, based on a few people who played it last year. I'm still fine with it with you stick to a limit though, but just sayin.

Truth, PLO can get heavy and quick! I think Jose mapped out what he wanted to be in it for though, (few posts back) If not, I'm sure he will set a number for rebuys.

Here's what I think is our best route to win the $50k since I'm only 1 point behind. I think we should play the PLO with only 1 buy-in $350entry + $100double stack. If I bust I will not rebuy. If I make it to the ADD ON period then I will buy the Double ADD ON for an additional $200 ($100ea.) which brings the total to $650

Also, I want to play a couple turbos. The turbos give only half of what the CPC events do but I'm only trailing by 1 point.

If I can use our profit to play these then PM me "confirm" but if even 1 investor objects or doesn't reply by tomorrow morning 11pm Chicago time then this is VOID so please confirm via PM asap. We are so close to our biggest score yet. Let's go!!!

Also, I still have last Saturdays $350 from the missed Event#2 which I will use in the $350 M.E Thursday.

INVESTORS PLEASE CONFIRM VIA PM

I am going to offer another solution to the problem that if one or two investors decide not to invest in the omaha and turbos. Hear me out.

Jose needs to play omaha and turbos to maximize our points EV. It is a no brainer as this 50k prize could come down to two points. If it comes down to one or two investors who do not confirm or do not agree, I suggest that the other investors cover the one or two of the non-confirmers. I think the amount of equity gained in playing these tourneys are worth covering one or two investors who do not. In doing so, the other investors still get the same percent they would have gotten if they did confirm they just do not put any money into it. Essentially the one or two who do not confirm get to free roll on the extra points.

Now I think this is fair for both sides, confirmers and non-confirmers. The confirmers risk only a small percent each to cover the non-confirmers. Lets assume the confirmers each have to cover 1% each of the 650. That is 6 dollars and fifty cents. A small amount that could mean the difference between 50k and not 50k. Just 2% of 50k is 1000 dollars. The chance that Jose cashes is better than 6.50/1000. If it came down to one or two points we would all be sick to lose out imo.

The reason I bring this up is because I do not want it to come down to one or two investors who are just not around the computer in the next 10 hours to confirm. It would be a bummer to lose out on the EV because someone was too busy. This idea relies on investor honesty that they will confirm if they want to and not hold back to try to free roll the rest of us. Also, since we are all confirming via PM, holding out to try to free roll is too risky since no one but Jose knows who has confirmed or not. The risk there is if people hold back and 3 investors dont confirm, no one gets the +EV as we do not invest as a whole.

At 11:15 Jose can give us the results on how many confirms we have and how many non confirms. If the non confirms are one or two then we cover them. If three investors do not confirm, we do not invest.

Sorry it is so long of a post, I hope I explained the idea well enough. Any feedback is appreciated.

Ok guys, I have received PM's or text messages from most of the investors, with the exception of CammyCash and Turb0Licious but from their last post in my thread, they will go with whatever I think is +EV

After some time to think, I have decided to NOT play the PLO/rebuys. I don't think my PLO game is strong enough to spend $650 and I don't want the "leader points" to cloud my judgement on what's best for this package and my investors. If the PLO tournament was without rebuys I would give it a shot but this is totally different.

We still have plenty of opportunities to accumulate more points. On our schedule we still have:
$350 Mega (unused buy in from Saturday)
$350 6max on Saturday
$240 NLHE on Sunday
$240 NLHE on Monday

I would like to add:
$350 Mega (only if needed)
$200 Turbos today and this weekend.

This is what I feel will get us the points needed to get our $50k

Does the main count for the points race? Are you considering playing the main regardless of the points race? If so, I'd like to invest.

I'm in for this plan. I like your reasoning on the PLO. Rebuys do make a difference.
