Message: [QUOTE="Tricktappic, post: 3929703, member: 274647"] Nice post. I agree. Tournaments are ****ing hurendous. I don't know how anybody can sit and grind these all day everyday for a living. A good tournament player had a very good idea of what decisions they need to make for these decisions to be a profitbale. I have played tournaments where I felt like I was the best tournament player in the world, for example i finished 5th in micro millions 20k and I felt like I was Fedor holz. Then I realised when I reviewed the tourney, I literally ran super hot and got 'lucky' numerous times. Don't get me wrong, I know how to play tournaments, but with cash games your decisions are more deliberate and thought out. Even when you take a tough beat, you know you can spin it around and regain your losses by simply playing your A game. Tournaments crush your soul in this sense, because you can go 10,20,30 even more without cashing once, and it hurts, because you think you will Never cash. In turn, that ruins your confidence, destroys your morale, takes the fun out of the game completely, and crush's your soul. I used to 12 table cash full ring. After about 80,000 I had a break even stretch of around 30,000 hands. I started to review this period and soon realised I wasn't making optimal decisions anymore. I was just simply playing like retarded zombie bot. I moved back down to 6 and my results have risen again. I agree with you that 5-6-7 tables is around optimal imho. Its all about figuring out what works best for you as an individual and what makes everything balance out. [/QUOTE]
