Title: Making the Wrong Decision
Post by: MintTrav on February 11, 2011, 03:05:26 AM

Why did I start playing a 2000 runner small-stakes MTT at nearly 11pm?
So dumb, gotta be up in a few hours. Nodded off a few times already but still there. PS $4 thing.
11/76 at the mo, with $15 locked up. FFS, gonna win about $20 and spend tomorrow falling asleep at work, if I wake up in time, that is.

Don"t know who that was addressed to - I"m the only one on the Forum!  10/43.

Anyway John, how are you getting on now?
Not so scruffy - 7/26. It"s one of those games where the short-stacks keep winning their races and staying in.

$30 locked up but have a chance of a decent cash now - to break $200, I"d need to finish at least 7th.

10th for $62. What a feckin waste of time. So top-loaded - $1280, $960, $720........
Cruising in 3rd with 11 left and lost two huge hands almost successively.
Gotta get up in an hour and a half. Sleep or no sleep?

one of the reasons i hate playing mtts online john. Fields just too big, really top heavy, need to come in top 3 to make it worth while, but they will never put a cap on Mtts cause it means less juice for the site.

There are tons of capped mtts online + plenty of sites that don`t get the runners anyway.
