Default Re: Who\'s tournament Advice would you follow?

IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT MAKING MONEY IN MTT:

I think in the age of 500+ fields you need to listen to option A.

The payouts are just SO skewed towards the top 3 spots that an overly agressive and gambling style will simply more EV$wise. I think Raymer's style perfectly illustates this.

IF YOU JUST ENJOY PLAYING IN MTTS:

Id probably go with the tighter model bc you generally get more "play" for your entry and I dont think it dampens your chances at a top 3 THAT much as long as you can accumulate late in a tourney. Honestly in order to win a tourney you are gonna have to have some hands/win some races late its just that simple.


P.S. It didnt take me very long to figure out you really dont make gobs of money in MTT play anyway. If you really want to make cash either get really good at a ring game or learn to 12 table 1-2 on PP with pokertracker-pokerview.
