Re: Things it took me a while to learn part 6, Strategy and Mentality
Timex has a statement in his "well" that says something along the lines of "I don't know which cash game players would be good tourney players because in order to win a tourney, you have to do all sorts of 'crazy [censored].'" Really, that "crazy [censored]" is creating a +EV situation in spots where every other player would think you are "insane." It comes from really thinking about stack sizes, position, blind structures, etc. This is an excellent post, bond. It's interesting how I believe I can lose, say, 3/4 70/30s in a given session and still come up ahead because there is other [censored] in my game that can get me to win. The last MTT I was in, building a stack from 1K to 15K without showdown felt pretty damn good. We all need to really understand what Bond is saying here and keep it to heart. But don't get to overboard - borderline dilusional hubris is not the same as dilusional hubris itself [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
