DSE Survivor events - How many players? How long to play?

Sauza · **Posted:** Tue Jun 04, 2013 10:48 am

I'm looking at the schedule for the DSE, and comparing it to the time that I have available to play. The Survivor events look interesting to me. Ten percent of the entrants in the $500 receive $4300. Starting stack of 15k; 30 minute blinds. Not sure of the structure beyond that, but it looks like a pretty easy payday to me.

If these run anything like many satellites to a larger event I figure maybe 120 players and about 5-6.5 hours to play?

Feed back appreciated

Bluff.com keeps track of some of the tournament series. I've seen a few of the Survivor events on there. It doesn't have the length, but it does have players and payouts.

RiverMeTimbers, thanks for the links. They are very helpful. I think it is a bit hopeful though to get 100+ runners. Venetian's Facebook page is not reporting turnout that high in the $400 or $500 events.

I haven't seen numbers since then.

Yep. I saw those numbers too. On the surface it looks like easy money if the fields are over 100. With 40-60 though I'm not as sure. I may not have the time for a 12-16 hour tourney, so I might still do one of these.

edit: thanks to a heads up from AlaskaGal... I see on the Bravo Live app that today's $300 Survivor is in the 2nd level with 58 runners (29 remaining)

Bravo now reporting 71. Looking a little more promising.
