Just wondering if any of you have erver climbed all the way up the steps and cashed at 5? Is it even worth the shot? I understand the players who buy straight in are very strong. Congrats Nash on your cash at the 1000, it is what prompted this thought. keep it up!!

I don't know if they're a waste of money, but they CAN be a SERIOUS pain in the ass... You work your way up to the 4th step, finish 5th, get bumped back down to the 2nd, build it back up....ect...

I don't know what your bankrolls like, but I actually think it may be a decent investment to buy in at ministep 4 ($165)... If you place in the top 2, you move up... If you place in 3,4 or 5, you get to play again (I think...?)...

I think if you buyin for any less than step 3 ($55 I think), it just becomes SUCH a task I get tired of playing before I run out of games to play...

BTW... I've placed once or twice... Once, I bought into step 4 and came in like 4th in step 5, and once I bought in to step 3 made it up and came in 5th, which still pays pretty decent, figuring I'm only buying in for $55...
