Finish distribution....low # of 1st place finishes...help?

[mattiesmat]

What is a good distribution?
Obviously the more 1sts the better, but what is realisticly good?
Can some good succesful players post their distribution?

Mine at the 16's is over 1253:
1: 14.0
2: 12.2
3: 14.4
4: 16.1
5: 15.1
6: 13.0
7: 7.5
8: 4.5
9: 3.1

I do not mean to steal the topic, I thought you would be intersted as well.

hi there ekinnehs. I've saw you at the tables tonight, and marked you as an uber player. My software will not join any table you are regged at anymore, so I dont mind giving you advice even though you are a big competitor of me.

Believe me, if you get on my avoid list... you are a VERY good player. There is no need to question your play.. I guess your getting greedy hehe.

Keep on playing your best game, and analyzing your play for possible leaks. You might want to play less tables to focus more on your game.. just play a little bit longer to compensate for the loss of #tourneys played. But then again, your game is so good already... you cannot improve much more, certainly not at the limits you play. Be happy with your results man [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] your more wealthy then 98% of the people on earth..?

From what I can tell, you might not be taking enough +EV situations 5 or 6 handed, resulting in you having less fold equity when it gets 4handed..making it easier for opponents to call you down.

If you are going to be taking 60/40's or coinflips on the bubble, why not take them 5/6handed when you have more fold equity? Just my thoughts...
