Sklansky's System

[Rianna]

Having used it in the heat of battle, I agree Vince.

We spent considerable time modifying the method, actually finishing in the money a number of times in smaller, test tourneys.

This reminds me very much of Magic tournaments, where people would often buy the pieces to the "netdeck" created by a pro and reproduced on the internet.

just for the record, i played mtg for 9 years [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]!

i had a 1930 constructed rating and an 1850 limit rating. i was dealing cards for quite a while too.

ive been retired for over a year now. thank god. although i do miss it sometimes, its alot of fun and mentally stimulating. i dont have the interest in dedicating my time to learning the game all over though of course, with poker being my priority now.

The main reasons I quit were that it was a drain of my financial resources (which were very limited at the time) and I didn't really enjoy the majority of people who played. My friends and I had a great time but the tournaments seemed to be have many morons that I just didn't get along with.

Limited really sparked my interest, if I ever get back into it I will probably exclusively play limited. Constructed is just too dull for me, especially playtesting the same damn matchups over and over again.
