500k seat - play, or unregister

[setter]

I am in the same boat you are...although i qualify at the $3 rebuys. I have yet to play the 500K yet simply due to the fact that my baby needs diapers, toys etc, which I would rather use the $$ on right now. BUT that said I have made a promise to myself and the family that if I win TWO seats in a given week I will play one of the seats, for the experience. My game is likely not up to the level of this tourney (500K) but I would like to see how I do.

Let me know what you decide to do, curious as to your final decision making.

I'm still registered at the moment. It might come down to how I feel the afternoon of the tournament. At the moment I'm leaning more towards playing, citing diminishing marginal utility of my own net worth.

Per your remark on how the fields are, they are loaded with people from satellites, so the fields are significantly weaker than the $109 rebuys, the $162's, etc etc.

Very True. I have played this tournament 20 times probably, and I cant remember ever having a "hard" first table. The donkeyness in this is significantly higher than in some other high buy in tournaments, like the 100 or 50 rebuy, and the random 100s and 150s. If its your skill that is in question, it shouldn't be. Play if you feel comfortable in a 200 dollar tournament and if you think you can play your best.

Going on a tangent, I've played in two 215 tournaments previously. I got knocked out of the first one overplaying TT vs. QQ on a ragged flop, and the second one getting my stack crippled at the end of the first hour with KJ vs. KQ vs. AK on a KTx flop unraised preflop. And then getting raped with KTo versus sdouble's AA preflop. But both of these were a while ago.
