I qualified via a $27 sat, and I'm horrible, so I think the field will be pretty soft for this for 2+2ers...

I did just sign up for one, on a whim thing, and u just played conservatively the whole time, or were u card happy??....I'm very curious bc you claim to be "horrible"

pretty much played tight aggressive poker and didn't bluff / overplay hands especially early. people loved top pair any kicker so i got a few chips early that allowed me to play that way until the 200/400 blind level really.

in addition, my AA and KK both held up toward the end, which helps, and as someone else said, once the end was near people played REALLY tight so stealing once or twice per orbit to keep the stack healthy was pretty easy...

I might try again, but with 15 qualifiers I finished in 61st...I was completely card dead and picked up AQ and pushed on a flop of Q57 and was called by 68 and the rest is history.....
