when i first saw that page i thought it was a joke or a scam of some sort. then when i

went farther and i realized it was basically an insurance program (that charges 12% of

your buyin) that says if you get close to the money bubble but don’t make it ITM they

will reimburse you your buy in.  I thought that sounded ok by itself then i realized what

that means was the players that can afford this can play super aggressive once they reach

this programs “new bubble” to get the big stack to win tournaments or go home with

only a small lose. don’t know if i like it or not.

 

just my first thoughts on this program.

p.s. i can't play on any of the sites this is available on, yet, so it won't affect me either way.

Wow I can't believe I've never heard of this. How common is it among players? Maybe because I'm a micro guy? Just asking to see how far out of the loop I am.

Seems like a waste of time to me. If you are +ev then what is the point of insuring yourself for a min cash?

Seems to border on being unfair, especially since other players think you are playing for the same min cash guidelines. Pokerstars will prolly ban this eventually IMO.
Nevertheless, I kinda want to try it out. What sites are supported?

it's pretty new…I have def not done the math on it.  but im sure someone has.  I'd be curious.  I suppose logic would say that it cant be +EV from a strictly numbers standpoint or the site would not make money.  But it could be situationaly good for people who tend to bubble alot?  or as said earlier to abuse the bubble with some security?

I think the concept is silly. How often do you really bubble? If a individual does bubble a ton then they just need to work on their game. People are just trying to make more money off the players.
