*****FTOPS Event #12: 6-max Limit***** (Sat. Challenge/Pooh-Bah Post)
This probably belongs in one of the SH forums, but I know enough people in this forum who are playing Friday so I'm putting it here. Who's in?
I'm interested in trading 5%/10% units of action up to 20% if you know me. PM/IM me. Some of you may know that I've taken a break from grinding the last month and played the Satellite Challenge for this event. Here are my results(with a few days to go): http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/ftops-challenge?id=12 PT Results: The 1st and 3rd lines represent the 1-table SnGs I played where only the winner took an entry or $216. (FTP bumped the rake part way through $1 and that's what the 3rd line represents but line 1 and 3 are essentially the same format). The 2nd line represents MTTs. I wish I got to play more of these for more tournament experience but 1. FTP didn't start running them right away, 2. They only ran twice a day, and 3. They often only had enough to people to have 1 seat guaranteed and the rake, structure, and price were bad compared to the SnG. A couple of observations: [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] I ran way hot through a small sample size. The MTTc community generally considers 300+ tournaments the start of a legitimate sample size, and though a smaller size is suitable for SnGs. Still, too few. [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] I did especially well in the Sit & Gos. Again, this was through a small sample but I won 15/35 SnGs I played in. With no skill edge and no variance, I should only be expected to win ~6 of them. No way this is sustainable. [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] I did well HU going 15-10. This was especially important in this format because in most of these situations only the winner took home the full buy-in. I definitely adapted my play as I got more used to this format, focusing on accumulating chips over survival even before the match became HU as long as I had >4 BB. My HU game definitely improved. [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Conclusion: These don't run consistently or often enough to make a living off of, but it was a nice short-time commitment away from grinding that fit my demanding school schedule. It was also some valuable experience in short-handed, HU, and donkament play and a solid 70BB boost to my 20/40 roll. |

A thread on this event is fine, Ben, but if you wanna keep bragging take it to BBV. The rest of us (i.e. me) suck at maximizing wins from online satellites.

I'm going to play. Quick question, is it correct to play tighter in a limit tournament due to having a limited '"bankroll" (i.e. pushing smallish edges isn't allows correct because we can't add on to our stack at anytime)?
