What are the prizes for it? I checked partypoker.com on the whats going on in promotions and there is nothing show up there. Is this a weekly prize? Also i heard in this leaderboard, you have to play 24 hours in order to win it. If thats the case, how is that even possible for anyone to win this? I mean i cant imagine anyone playing more than 12hr per average a day. But anyone that plays 12 hours a day have no chance at the leaderboard?
Seems like no-one answered this. In short:
1) 3 weekly leaderboards: 5,5-11 / 22-55 / 109+ Power Series tournaments
2) Check site for more info, they are under promotions or check them from poker lobby -> promotions. 1x package for low, 2x packages for mid and 5x packages for high. Roughly all value is that for lowstakes LB and roughly 80% of prizes are those packages for mid/high LBs.
3) Yeah, for low and midstakes leaderboards you have to be able to grind 24/7 for 7 days a week since there's tournaments starting all over the clock. For high you actually may get 6-8 hours sleep!
4) You might get some smaller prizes, but no chance for packages. Exception might be high leaderboard, where you would miss like 3-5 tournaments.
I guess did make too few sacrifices to Ba'al, Odin, Zeus and other (poker) gods during weekend so no chance to win this week @ high LB. This new leaderboard is so much worse that it may be that I'll actually enjoy some summer this year
I guess it's even far worse for those poor souls who actually try to win by playing fairly in low/midstakes leaderboards.
P. S. Noted that pads berated Stars in twitter for destroying rebuys and cubed tournaments. How about cleaning your own corner and doing something to that matter @ Party where you really could make a difference. There's certainly room for them, both in regular / turbo tournaments but in satellites too.
