this is exactly what i played. i let the donks knock each other out. i may have played 3 hands in the first 2 levels.
believe it or not, there is *plenty* of play in the structure. no need to take a single chance or coin-toss early on.
then, when it is down to heads up, chop it if you are down 3:2 or more. if not, play it out. maybe i was lucky, but in both of them, my competition was absolutely awful. not even semi-awful, FULL BLOWN awful.
only reason i did not have chip lead in second match, was because my donkey opponent won a 3 man all-in battle. i had 3,000, he had 7,000 and offered a 50-50 chop. i took it of course, but would not have been unhappy if he never made the offer. in both satellites, i felt like i outclassed the rest by a mile. and, other than mat sklansky, i could be the worst player at 2p2.
