Message: [QUOTE="Rational Madman, post: 3949779, member: 227817"] Actually there's ANOTHER aspect to tournament poker which I didn't want to bring up as it's sort of a low blow but since you bring up bad calls etc I'll explain why again it's much more luck based in tournaments. Simply this: If you realize everyone else on your table is as good or good enough to not be exploitable you can up and leave to the other available cash game tables. Tournament poker can just as easily pit you against sharks as fish and/or donks. You can't use your ability to judge people to your advantgae unless you happen to be vs the fish. Even more unfair is that if you're in an MTT where there ARE fish and donks around but you happen to be put on tables most of the MTT vs non-fish and non-donks, then people equally good to you or barely less good than you end up with much huger stacks than you to dominate you mid-game and you don't get ITM purely because they had easier opponents for the early-game.
