Can anyone tell me the buy-in +rake (up to about $20) for these tourneys on Ongame network please?

$2+.2 , 5+.5 , 10+1 ,20+2
same for regs -8 min per level and turbos -3 min.

Many Thanks.

Holy crap, that rake is like 2.5x bigger than on Stars, why do you want to play there?

I have an offer of >75% Rakeback so I need to balance RB vs softness vs availability of games.

so , I tried a few turbo ongames, :- $11, 18th hand , bb 300, 10 handed



Seat : ($2,125 in chips)
Seat : ($1,185 in chips)

Seat: ($1,990 in chips)
HERO btn: ($1,075 in chips)
Seat sb: ($1,205 in chips)
Seat bb : ($1,370 in chips)

Push any 2 and hope?

Er - yes. 10 handed and the bb is 300? LMAO. Surely this is a complete crapshoot? I can't believe playing these is EV+. By the time you get to the blinds the bb will probably be like 800 or something lol.

I am very speculative that this game is beatable. Look for a better game, and other sites if you prefer DoN's. 10% rake is awful, stars is 4% for turbos and 8% regular.

I was in the big blind, i know there is a short stack about to go out. If he does make it through, I will be the new shortest stack facing the blinds. Wait it out or make a stand. I know He could have about anything with his stack size and i might wait for the shortest stack to hit the blinds.

Pass this with the CO being shorter.

Snap fold. You are better off pushing ATC against UTG next hand (which I wouldn't do), and you are fine letting the blinds hit the shorty.

first time playing one of these, probably obvious here but just checking. if a fold, what is our rough shove range here?

I'd probably shove this if the table is reasonably tight, however I don't assume that's the case in a microament. Here I'd shove something like 88 AJs AQo

what is DoN strategy?

Mostly fold.

Sometimes push.

Yup bit like normal sngs but we do more folding and less pushing.

what does DoN stand for?

Double or Nothing

I think you have your questions backwards


Double or Nothing- 5 out of 10 players cash

Double Or Nothing. Top half of the fields cashes for a little under Double the buy-in, bottom half gets Nothing.

Thanks.I have not seen these games... Seems like a low variance slow steady bank roll building kind of game...
