Step challenge at Party Poker

Oh yea, and there has to be a profitable way that 3 or 4 of us could work together on this, not by cheating, but once we get to level 3 or 4 if we got together and all played the same table and worked out a nice split it might be worth a partnership, right? I don't think this qualifies a collusion, do you? I mean if we weren't sharing cards or anything but had 5 people in the final step 5 game and just afreed to split the money it could still be a nice payday for an initial investment of $12. If I am wrong plwase correct me.

i don't think it's cheating, but you're also assuming that 5 people can get there at the same time. if you like that style of tournament though, you can see tons of hands, and potentially make a nice bit of cash.

I haven't worked out the math, but I think it's cool. Of course, you could do this yourself by just taking the money you win at whatever SNG and then buy into a higher limit one...

It's a neat little promo though, and I'm sure Party will make tons of money off of it. Just like the Bad Beat Jackpot.

Thats what I thought at first, but later on you get all those spots to kep playing and thats an incentive right there. I don't know if this is a good idea or not, seems like the toughest part is the first step. Like sheep to the slaughter though, I 'll give it a try.

Just finished my first effort and OF COURSE busted out 5th, took about 1hr 10mins. AK vs KK and no Ace to be found. ALOT of 4th and 5th place finishes for me recently, I mean ALOT. I don't know if this means I am getting better or worse.

Seems like a good value to me. seems like the higher in steps you go, the more chances you get 'to keep playing', ie. at step 3, you have 11 places where you will be able to continue to play, and at step 4 you have 14 places.

same thing for winning the freeroll.. 1 -4 at step 1&2, 1-6 at step 3, 1 - 8 at step 4.... the 4 places pay at step 5....

That's potentially alot of poker for 12 bucks... you could play forever.. heh..

I coulda used this last weekend, where I came in 4th in over half the SnG's I entered...
