Default Most Common Finish

Just curious, real quick. What are your first two most common finishes?

Me: Most common is first, second most common is fourth.

most: 10th
second most: 9th

actually I have no idea because I don't have PT, but if I had to guess I'd say 4th was my most and either 1st or 3rd was my second most. I made it to the top 4 about 80 percent of the time before I went bust. I haven't learned to play the bubble yet...

Im about:

16% first
10% second
12% third
15% fourth

This reflects my style pretty good. Sometimes on the bubble I am forced to turn it down, and glide into the money with a short stack. Sometimes my opponents allow me to steal likea hungry dog, so then I either end up busting or having a large chip advantage. A lot of the tournaments I win, the person would have to beat some pretty crappy odds to win heads up based on stack size alone.

I'm curious to hear more results.

well if you mean just keeping track of them yourselves, I didn't do that. Party doesn't have a place to check out your finishes does it? If it does and I've been missing out then I'm gonna feel like an idiot.

Not altogether sure how to interpret those.

Top placing 1st. Next, 6th.

I interpret the results below to mean: play tight early. Get shortstacked, impatient, or don't adapt to 6-handed to blow self up around 5-7th place, or if not, than have enough to make money. Play well shorthanded to get good placings.

Place %
1 15.7%
2 10.8%
3 9.2%
4 13.0%
5 10.8%
6 14.1%
7 13.5%
8 5.9%
9 3.2%
10 3.8%
