It's worth a try. There are so many bad players that you know it has to be +EV easily.

THATS WHAT YOU THINK!!!

prepare for the ultimate torture that is the mtt

[ajmargarine]

Mtt's are good if you have one open while playing 5 other tables of cash. Helps you play cash longer.

Of course, some times you final table them, post a "hey come sweat me and be fanboi" in the microbrew and then Thac shows up to sweat and you get doomswitched...

Apparently the rake at 50 NL ~ 4.0 PTBB/100. Thoughts?

4$/180s are the devil - its impossible to win one!

Can anyone link me to a post which explains about 'M' as far as MTTs go?

Thanks

No real post I don't think but basically, it's a SPR thing before anyone acts. If it's 200/400/25 and you're 8-handed with a 4.8k stack, you would add up the money in the pot which is 200 + 400 + 200 for the antes. Then you divide that 800 by your stack 4800, and you get an M of 6.

-Anything below 2-3 means you need to make moves ASAP.
-Anything 3-6 means you're gonna have to make a move soon.
-Anything 6-10 means you can wait for hands for a bit, but you should be stealing to keep afloat.
-Anything 10+ and you're fine.

It's from Harrington on Hold'em. I think it is your stack divided by the blinds + antes.

Its how many rounds of betting you can sustain before being blided out.
At a 9 hand table with 1000 BB and 500sb with 100ante, a round cost 1000+500+900=2400. If you have 24,000 chips your M is 10.
