Message: [QUOTE="RogueRivered, post: 980078, member: 45593"] Judging by the stats, I'd say those players who make a lot of money playing higher buy-in MTTs versus low-cost ones are doing so because they are playing against more "scared" money. It must be harder to win low buy-in tournaments since your opponents will play a bit crazier, making it harder for you to win by skill alone. People invested in higher cost tournaments will probably try to play safer, making it easier for good players to beat them. The stats show that these money earners aren't afraid of going out early in a tournament. Most of them only finish in the money less than 15% of the time. Personally, I play way too tight (in low buy-in events) and make the money 44% of the time and still have a negative ROI. Until I can accept more risk (and have the bankroll to back it up), I have no business playing higher levels. [/QUOTE]
