My point is this... Do u think that playing on multiple accounts would help him get into the money more often? I mean, even if he did make it into the money... unless he final tabled or whatnot, he probably makes back just enough to cover his buyins. so im still wondering how he was able to make money

He's a winning player so he has a positive expectation for every tourney he plays. The more tourneys he plays, teh more dollars he makes. For example, let's say his ROI is 100%. That means for every dollar he spends on entry fees he earns a dollar. If he enters a $100 tourney, on average, he will win $200 earning a $100 profit. If he plays 4 tournies he will make $400, on average. It doesn't matter much if they're all the same tourney or not.

Yeah, his ROI didn't go from 100% to 400% because he had four entries. He still had to pay for them.

Essentially, if he had a 100% ROI in this $200 tournament, then by playing it 5 times, he now has 100% ROI in a $1000 tournament. There are also some minor benefits like once in a while he did end up at the same table, building up reads on the players faster, being anonymous, etc.

If you're -EV in this tournament, doing what he did would not make you +EV. SNGs is a different story.

Lol way to take the way I phrased something and pick it to pieces. What I meant was that by playing that way someone essentially has 400% of the buyin as an ROI, instead of 100%. The reason why someone wouldn't just multi-table is that there are only x number of super soft high buyin events, just like I said in my first post if you read that far. And if you don't understand why an EV of $2120 is better than an EV of $530 then I can't help you.
