WSOP: STTFers best advantage?

[SuitedSixes]

Obviously, once we get to a final table STTFers have an advantage over everyone else. Would the Shoot-Out event be the one event best matched to our particular skills?

[Kevin8423]

I would think shootouts would be the best, though many STT skills are very usable in regular MTTs but probably not to the extent of a shootout tournament where the only change is really having less paying (advancing) spots.

People always assume the shootout but the complete absence of a bubble really kills our edge.

A MTT with more then 1 seat?

I like my chances in any MTT with only one player.

I think that since I'm the only guy under 60 playing Stud8, eventually everyone else will die and I'll just show up, buy-in get a bracelet, get my picture taken and get my buy-in back minus the vig.

There's still an edge for the clueful, related to being very used to playing shorthanded and esp. heads-up. You just have to be smart enough to realize that cEV=$EV before the final table.

Yeah this is key. You can mush so much wider in winner take all SNGs.

Assuming your "mush" was supposed to be "push", you're way off.
