Larger Online Tournament Buy-Ins

[Zinzan]

I'm curious how 2+2'ers tend to buy-in to larger ($200+) online tournaments.

Interesting results so far... I initially went the subqual route, but that's a lot of work, and I found I could fund my qualifiers easily enough with my SnG and ring game winnings. Hopefully, my play will eventually be up to skipping the qualifiers, too. Not there yet, though.

During x-mas break, I was def. using my sng profits to play the multi bills. Now, Im just using the previous multi payouts to directly buy in.

I should clarify that I'm asking specifically about "large" buy-ins to multi-table tournaments (thus the chosen forum), not $200 SNGs or $1000 Step tourneys.

Also, for the sake of this question, $200 should be dropped to $150 to include Party's weekday Supers.

Finally, I didn't include "superqualifiers" (e.g. $8+1 multitable where a certain portion of top finishers advance straight to the tournament) as a choice. Though "subqualifiers" (e.g. $8+1 single table to win a seat at a $24+2 single table qualifier) are a different animal, we'll lump them together for the sake of this poll, as they are the cheapest but longest roads into the tournament.

BTW, even though I can "afford" to buy-in directly now, I still play single table qualifiers. They're soft, don't take too long, and kind of get me warmed up for the MTT.

Since playing qualifiers is the most popular method you could further subdivide into Single Table Qualifiers and Multi Table Qualifiers. I seem to have more success in the latter.
