Razz 1$ mtt hand 1

[Praxising]

I think I have the most trouble in the first and last hours of a trny. This hand, which I included the results for, is an example of when I don't know what the optimal play is. A few hands into one of these, it becomes obvious that some are going to play really bad starting hands. One guy played QK2 later on. In a cash game, I think you just stay tight, but in these trnys, I watch these guys go out and give away their chips to my opponents while I wait for decent hands.

I was sorely tempted to call here. I am wondering if there is some specific early, loose mtt strategy for starting hands where you know you will get multiple limpers, many of whom will play any wheel card in the door? The $10 trny plays very differently.
