Double or Nothing

[bkniefel]

What do you guys think about the double or nothings on Pokerstars ?

This is what I mostly play, I know I am better that some and some are better than me. So if I can hold out my crazy betting til 5 bust out I have won.double my money. You can find me in the lower limit games there alot!

I think these are great as a BR builder but...appart from that, you get bored fast. I would really use them as a BR builder to play decent MTTs on the range of $20-$100

Problem with those as a regular play is that you end up paying so much in rake and to returned less than what you invested EVERYTIME, never will you get paid more than what you put it, it will always be less. The house will never lose! Just like when you play pai gow and pay that 5% comission, although in Paigow there's a PUSH, not on the double or nothing at poker though LOL

Yea I think it's definately beneficial if your play 50+ double or nothing's though. That's a big jump for not a whole lot invested in the game. Can build the bankroll to where you can then play the larger MTT tournaments.

Volume is indeed the key to that game
