Right but having a "goal" in an MTT just seems silly. It should be play as strong as you can for the duration. 10 cashes with no final table may be better than 1 final table and 0 other cashes.

Unless your goal really isn't to make money but simply to make a final table? I don't see how that could be +EV though.

And what if you make the final table with 33% of the C.I.P. and then donk them all off and bust ASAP? Is that really an accomplished "goal"?

Sure I'm nitpicking. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] but I'm bored.
