MTT'ers... what is your edge?

[Yoshi63]

Let me preface this by saying this is *sort of* a strategy post, but since it's such a general subject about MTT's in general - I thought it fit in MTTc better. Obviously a mod may move this if they see fit.

I have been playing MTTs with some seriousness for a few months now. Despite good results, I still find myself wondering what exactly makes me better than most of the players in the field (if anything at all).

As far as the question I'm trying to propose for this thread, here goes:

What makes you better than most of your MTT opponents?

The obvious answers would be "experience, understanding, discipline, ect..." but I'm asking on a more specific level. Some things that come to mind are [aggression, correct pushbotting strategies, employment of +EV moves, exploiting bubbles, attentiveness of playing styles].

I'm mostly interested in responses from mid-to-high stakes MTT'ers who feel they have a distinct edge over the opposition. Small-stakes players are of course welcome to reply, but I think it's fairly obvious that there are massive edges due to a majority of the field simply lacking basic poker understanding.

So if you can think of even one or two 'specific edges' you have over the competition, please express what they are (along with the level of buy-in you play).

(I'm mostly asking this quesiton because I find it difficult to play multiple tables while playing well)

We don't make incorrect preflop calls with hands where we're only proceeding if I make a certain hand.

We don't bloat pots with one pair hands unless we're willing to put all the money in.

We find spots to get chips, not use our cards to get chips.

We run really really good.

are you talking about what makes you better than the other players in the field who are beating the field, or the field as a whole?

A product of making less mistakes than others and exploiting bad players better than others.

Everyone else sucks, seriously... I just got into playing a ton of MTT's and even most of the good/ranked players suck...
