1. Giant wall of text is not fun to read.

2. Convince the guy running the tournament to increase the blinds every 30 minutes, with 10 minute blinds in a MTT format, there's a lot of luck involved.

I play in the World Tavern Poker league, where we have 20 minute blinds, and anywhere from 3 to 8 tables (8-9 handed).

I usually play tight, push my good hands, and try to extract as much as I can. It sucks when you have to play behind, because all it takes is one suckout or coin flip loss to knock you out, but I don't have the luxury of waiting for the nuts.

Also, with an MTT structure, with the number of people at the table changing a lot, you have to adjust your play a lot. KJs UTG+1 isn't a raising hard 10 handed, but it is when it's 6 handed.
