MTT - Frequncy of Making the Money

[GoSox]

In a large MTT (300+) how often do you make the money ?? You can assume Party since they generally pay top 8-10%. I've played 5 now and made the money in four of them. Two of those were for entries to the Party 1/4 million tournies. I've had good cards in all and reasonable luck, but in general the players have been consistent with the sng quality. I'm amazed how often on the bubble one of the biggest stacks ends up all in against the biggest stack and loses out; while I limp along with 5x BB and make it.

In 348 tournaments (a handful are Sit n gos, so the real fiqure is a bit less), I've hgit the money 9 times, only a winner once. The games were Limit HE, NLHE (most) Omaha Hi/lo and Omaha PL. Additionally a few freerolls would have been money wins if they had been normal paid entry tourneys. Most of these tournament were in the $1-$20 range. with one coming at a Foxwood event.[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

In tournaments my Win/Loss shows I'm about $200 down [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Thanks, I have been suspecting that this was a really lucky run. Now to enter some $300 ones before it runs out !
