HU you could never win. You could settle for MTT finishing 2nd, but you'd never win. AND...since you'd have to live with the fact of being 2nd best and knowing you could never win poker would obviouly become a boring (all be it very profitable) hobby. so you'd have to ask yourself and your ego if the money is worth it because you'd never have a bracelel and people would eventually know that you're full of sheeet.

Well most people never win a bracelet so I can't imagine that it would kill your ego to know you'll never win one. I just don't understand why people would play tourneys at all with this power.

Seems to me that the most profit lies in the mid/high stakes deep stack NL games. Watching live at the bike I believe it was a 10/20 game with unrestricted buy-ins there were players with 20K+ stacks. In a game like that the blinds cease to be a real issue.

Playing limit this would be worthless, and I'd avoid short stack NL and tourneys as well.
