ACR Pro Jeff Boski dives into OSS XL: What you need to know
With over $40 million in guaranteed prize pools, ACR Poker’s Online Super Series (OSS) XL promises an action-packed poker schedule suitable for players of all skill levels. Let's dive into the insights shared by ACR Pro Jeff Boski about what makes this series a must-play event for players.
What excites you the most about this upcoming OSS XL? How have you been preparing for it?
I am a big fan of medium buy-in/large field MTTs and this is what the OSS brings. The leaderboard is a nice bonus to incentivise the grinders out there. I prepare for these long days by eating right and exercising. Walk your dogs every day and adopt, don't shop!
What specific OSS XL events are you planning to play, and why?
I am a big fan of any main event, but specifically the $215 buy-in $1 million guaranteed Main Event is a great price point, which I will be firing as many bullets into as needed. The $66 buy-in $500,000 guaranteed and the $109 buy-in $1.5 million guaranteed Mystery Bounty events should be a lot of fun. Hopefully I don't have to fire too many bullets to bag a big stack for day two.
Why should players play this OSS XL? What are the main benefits?
People should play the OSS XL because of all the big guaranteed MTTs.
What key strategies would you recommend for players with limited bankrolls entering a big series like this?
Always use good bankroll management. Do not risk more than you can afford to lose. It always hurts losing a poker tournament but it hurts a lot more when that money will determine if you can pay rent or not.
For players considering transitioning to the higher buy-in tournaments, what advice or tips do you have for effective schedule and bankroll management during this series?
If you are going to take a shot, don't think about the money. Just play your game. Try to win all of the chips and THEN look at the payouts when the tournament is over.
Do you have any favourite moments or experiences of playing in previous OSS XL that you can share?
The intense leaderboard grind will always be a fond memory. I love the competition and the added money.
