Re: whining about FTOPS Razz -
Playing MTT satellites to a $300 event as a micro player is pretty bad in terms of bankroll-management. When you do well enough in an MTT to win $300 you want to win that in cash.
I think I am going to play the FTOPS stud8 event, but I'll probably buy in directly because I hate playing satellites where only the winner is rewarded. |

[/ QUOTE ] I'd probably agree if it were a regular thing. But I don't play tournaments regularly, and as such I consider taking a cheap shot at a big-payoff event as being outside of my bankroll. It's like buying a nice steak dinner once a year that might win me a couple thousand dollars when I eat it. By "outside my bankroll" I mean "not related to my bankroll". It's money that I can just plain afford to lose if I feel like it, like playing blackjack or clench-the-butt-on-the-donkey |

Re: whining about FTOPS Razz -
how big are the fields in these and how long do they last compared to the wcoop. I remember all the wcoop lasted atleast 10 hours or so, i don't think i can play that long. I might play the stud8 one though if im not busto

[/ QUOTE ] I know of at least three micro players on Stars who sat'ed into the WCOOP and at least two of them made the money. One of them made the final table. I know the other made several hundred. Not bad for a twenty dollar or so investment for a micro player. Those were just the ones I recognized from the list of finishers. |

But only about 5% of them tried, so even if half of those cashed, it's like a really small number. |

Re: whining about FTOPS Razz -
Prax: I'm saying it's bad br-management, and it is. Playing satellites comes with such huge variance that you basically should be able to buy into the event directly to justify it. I've blown a whole roll just playing satellites.
mrmr: So you think micro players had a way better cashing ratio than the people who buy in directly? |
