Best strategy for winner take all w/starting stack of 25BB?

[yimyammer]

Whats the best strategy for playing this tourney? Given the speedy increase in blinds and low starting stack, I think I'm gonna have to move and get lucky fast.

I am playing in a tourney that is giving a 10K WSOP ME entry for the winner. This is a free roll and 1st place is the only spot that pays.

Starting chips are 5000

Blinds start at 100/200 and increase every 20 minutes

2nd round 200/400
3rd 500/1000
4th 1000/2000/100 ante
5th 2000/4000/300 ante
6th 4000/8000/500 ante
7th 6000/12000/1000 ante
8th 10000/20000/2000 ante
9th 15000/30000/3000 ante
10th 20000/40000/4000 ante
11th 25000/50000/5000 ante
12th 30000/60000/6000 ante

Wtf, second round is already push/fold?!
Seriously, how many people are playing in this freeroll? Its gonna be terror on that playingfield.

You cant really play anything for value (sooted connectors etc), so just get premiums and push them I guess..

260 runners

[tomek322]

77+, AK,AQ,AJ,KQ, push and pray

[Nogatsira]

so 260 runners = 1,300,000 chips
at the final table everyone will have around 130k.. why do they even have a 12th level? are you sure this is the structure?

Who even gives away a 10k WSOP ME packet in a freeroll crappy like this and why only 260 runners? a 10k freeroll doesnt sound bad to me oO

The Rio is doing this. The blinds I listed are right off the sheet

Memorize the pushbot charts. Don't limp. Ever.

Most of your raises should be All-in because either your stack or your opponent's will be < 10BBs.

Your best hope is that everyone nits it up and you pwn them. Your second best hope is a helluva run of cards. GL.
