[Ross]

Do'nt play many online MTT's but this looks too juicy to ignore does anyone know how many hours or levels of play it takes to make the final table ?

thanks

Obvious spam.

If by tonight you mean 4:30EST.

It takes a long time to make the FT. The tournament should finish around midnight or 1AM I would suspect.

You live in Ireland yet you refer to your homeland as EU?

This might be result-oriented.

Assume you have to go into work bleary-eyed.

Posit: You've FT'd the mil guaranteed. Which is a 5-figure payday.

I'm sure you can take a bleedin' day off!

I think your bets preflop and on the flop are too small, as played i bet 1000 on the river and probably be forced to call a push even though that would suck.

[mlagoo]

First off -- Raise more preflop. Should be raising to like t120 or so here, IMO.

The rest looks good. I think you have two lines -- Bet 5-600 to induce a raise from worse hands (and call that raise), or bet 900-1100 and make a super thin fold to a raise. I like the first one better.

Might be worth posting that hand.
