For anyone playing these, BSQ charge the standard 10% fee for these. However, on stars they are 8% and 4% :o for turbos.
Come on ipoker/BSQ, pull yer fngers out!

Looks like Stars have changed their fee for these today - I now see a $50+$2 game.... but yesterday I was playing $30+$3..... and that one has disappearead off the list now.

Think a bunch of folk from Pocketfives contacted Pokerstars to get this changed:

not read the thread, but would imagine there is some maths in there that shows how difficult it is for the average punter to make a profit in these and that they get killed by the 10% rake. Come on ipoker SORT IT OUT!!
My 100 game challenge is going disasterously. I am nearly half way through and have an ROI of 2%. I am playing tighter than a ducks arse and would like to report that my ROI is affected by a string of major donkey suckouts, but this simply isn"t the case! I am struggling with situations where the blinds are big, I am short stacked (

... If this was a normal 3 places paid STT, I would have been pushing much earlier and am wondering if a bit more short stacked aggression earlier would help?

I"ve been playing them on Pokerstars - I don"t think anybody wants to get knocked out, so aggressive play when you can still cause real damage should get disproportionately rewarded.
I"m trying to get a 100 game record to report on as well, but I have a short attention span - since keeping record I"ve managed to play 4 (2 x 2) - so it might take a while for me to get up to that sample size.
Swinebag:
thanks Jon. I think i"ll try cranking it up a bit. I"ve just got to make like Plug out of the Bash Street Kids
