Message: [QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 1385889, member: 33113"] Actually GLADLY I would like to correct you here... what you're saying here is just not true. If you were to follow the path of any of the MTT regs. online, you will see that alot of them are playing upwards of 30mtts per day (20 perhaps more typical). To play a few hours in an MTT and then 'not cash', I never look at this as being a waste of time - - it is just part of the big picture, part of the journey, part of the reality of being a tournament player. When I go busto getting it in on a 5bet shove as an 83% fav. & then go busto just barely ITM (or before the bubble) I don't think "Wow.. what a waste of time, I made zero for the past 3hrs." Instead I look at more as, "Another 3hrs. of time invested in experience. Now what hands do I feel I would like to review." (if any). It's the same for playing 100NL (or 200NL). One doesn't just load up and jump onto those limits online unless they just feel like donating to others. No... as I'm sure you know, one has to put in the time first. tbh.. putting in 10k+ hands at 5NL &/or 10NL isn't really that appealing to me. I like playing cash tables (occassionally, especially live) but I much prefer tournament play. I also don't find any great appeal in playing 100K in hands to break even except for rakeback (which I've noticed is what many can hope to only expect to gain as there aren't alot of players who are making boatloads of cash in low stakes online (of course some are... just not many from what I've noticed). Many look at poker as "what's my hourly rate". Personally that's not my thing (especially with being a tournament player). Wouldn't expect that to be the deal with most SNG players these days either (considering the #1 ranked sng player who 20tables the $16's only nets. $300/day and that's with playing 200 sng's per day.
