Just cashed, same tournament as last night. Only the second time I've entered. Now the goal is to make it to the final table. I'm in the top twenty at the moment with only 30 left.

I know it sounds like bragging, only it's not. I'm wanting to know if I'm feeling a little too sure of myself. I know that's dangerous so any info would be appreciated.

So, a great player makes the money around 17-19%, so that times two!

Now it's sixth place with 21 left. I smell the final table. Trying to not lose my cool.

Make that 2nd place with 18 left.

Make that 4th place with 9 left.

I'll just link to my brag/vent. I appreciate the win but am frustrated at placing in 6th for a second time in a row. I think it might have to do with fatigue, I was nowhere near short stack when the final table started. I took a short break after busting out, and immediately plowed through a 10 seat SnG. The SnG had players of about the same skill level as most of the players at the R&A.

Oh and very cool MrMuckets. If you can do it...

I played a MTT tourney 2 days ago and cashed 4th. I played in a similar one yesterday and cashed 3rd. Idk how common it is but I've been pretty hot lately and hope it can continue.

In 34 days I cashed 9 times. taking a $5.00 freeroll win to over $500.00. In the last month I have cashed only twice. Once in a carbon freeroll and once in a CC freeroll. You all know about the CF contest we have going, He went from 0-10k in 6 months. thats alot of cashing in a row

I seem to really have my days lately. I do wonder sometimes if it is actually all me or also a little bit of help from the comps lol. I know last Saturday I was absolutely hot, it seemed like any tourney I joined I was sitting at the final table- don't think I wasn't wishing for a larger bankroll to play with then lol. Now this week over all, it seemed like I was out of most everything in 30 minutes average. Now it's Saturday again and I am seriously hoping for some deja vu lol.

They have a 20 seat SnG satellite into the following night's $5k guaranteed R&A. Top 3 win a seat 4th wins 40 cents. You can buy in with money or points. It's easy to plow through to the top 3. First seat's must play. Each additional seat's a tournament dollar. If you can carve out a full night to play in them, you can win a seat + at least 3 TD's. Just play the rebuy period as best you can and call an all-in with good pot odds + a decent R&A all-in hand.

You should be able to at the very least double or triple up during the rebuy period, then add on. After the rebuy and add on period are over just play your normal best game. You should make some cash. Basically take a buck up to at least 5 bucks, maybe a whole lot more.
