new tournaments w big overlay, $1 entry

Reply Subscribe
I heard that there's a couple of new micro tournaments running on Carbon Poker right now.... both are $1 buyin, one is $1500 guar. and the other is $2500. Earlier this week I heard that there was only ~650 entrants in the $1500 one, meaning there'd be a $850 overlay. Pretty decent for a micro tournament. I considered playing one of them but the head just wasn't up for micro play those days.
GL to all who check it out. I imagine they're starting to get more players in them now & will only be a matter of time before there's no overlay in them (ie. like he Daily$1 & Daily$1 rebuy on Fulltilt).

I believe they are rebuys also, so that cuts down the overlay

Sounds awful to the grade of having to beg for money. Have experienced similiar endings and it feels worse than anything else in poker. Keep playing your pocket kings like the way you do. Nothing else matters.
