Why do you play MTT?

Because sometimes we make final tables in these things. If you don't, then your logic is flawless.

I havent read the responses, so I don't know if someone mentioned this, but theres a major flaw in your argument. The average tournament does not take 5 hours, that's only if you go deep. In general, the avg tournament takes less than 2 hours becuase you bust out early so often.

because most you can lose is 215

that's if you only play 1 tourney

Because where else can you spend 3 hours avoiding the donkey minefields, build your stack up, and then lose it (with 89 people left)when you push on the flop with 99 against KT and the donkey gets a T on the turn?

After 4-8 tabling cash games or even STTs for a couple hours I feel like I've wasted my time regardless of how well I do.

I don't understand this. Isn't poker about making money? If you get a grand slam 4-tabling SNG's, how is that wasting your time?

- Fun.
- More dynamic than SnG or Ring.
- Opponents donk off chips faster than they donk off cash.
- Experience. The money I make at MTT's today is trivial. The money I'll make crushing WSOP events in 3-4 years will make it all worth it. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Its fun to play, as I don't play strictly for income.

Also, having days like this are great for the ego.

A man stood on a street corner, propositioning every woman who walked by. Another man watched and was compelled to ask a question. How can you take the constant rejection? The man on the corner replied, "Ninety-nine out of 100 ignore me, call me names, or slap my face. But, OH, that one!"

A better question is why do I reply to questions with obvious answers?
