Variance: How do people win MTTs?
 

Cuz whenever I somehow have the stupid idea to play one, I run like crap and I see the donks playing K4o in re-raised pots winning every hand.

Do I need some sort of shaman voodoo artifact of Luck +5 or should I just play every hand?

they dont, idk where you heard otherwise

Re: Variance: How do people win MTTs?
 

I play on a non-US network. That means they do play every hand, and they do win, because most of them do it. (On an average 9-man table the vpip average is usually over 40 with 5-6 of them playing 70+)

I can't understand this either. I won my first ever live donkament and i didnt know what i was doing. It was a 60 person tournament, and looking back all I did was luckbox the [censored] out of the tourney. Flopped a set against aces and stacked him, got KK vs QQ and stacked someone, went allin with A7 and final table and stacked pocket jacks.

Even online I just won every race and got dealt AA like 4 times to take down a 300 person tourney. Blah blah there is skill w/e, Id argue that the people who look the most skilled and win are the ones who get into situations to make them look like they play good.

Srsly, the only people that win MTT's are either huge luckboxes or huge cardracks. End of story.

Re: Variance: How do people win MTTs?
 

Yup they are all luckboxes. Don't drink the lemonade in the MTT forums.

But over the course of 1000's of mtt's everyone has the same amount of luck and you'll easily be able to tell who the better players are.
