Switching to multi-table tournaments?
i'm thinking that maybe instead of completely switching to no-limit cash games, i'll play a lot more multi-table tournaments.
after my big score on sunday, i started thinking about how much success i've had in big tournaments.... over the past 6 months, i've played less than 20 of these... mostly losses, some marginal wins, and two big wins-- winning the cruise/tournament entry package and this last one.
so monday and today, i played only 'relatively' large tournaments... 8 tournaments in total.. 6 losses, 1 marginal win (won back buy-in plus a little extra), and another 2nd place tonight...
the 2nd place win tonight was in a $54 entry tournament at PokerRoom.com against 256 players, paying out a little over $2K... i should have gotten 1st place, but oh well....
but in two days of only playing multi-table tournaments, i've done pretty good (great if I add in sunday!)...
so i think that this is where i'm going to focus my poker-playing for a little while, and see how it goes.
i need to make a schedule of all the daily tournaments that i want to enter on all the different sites.. tonight I was playing 5 tournaments at once at one point, on 4 different poker sites.
what i liked about 1-table tournaments was that i was able to play a lot of them-- poker is streaky, and high-volume ends up evening out the streaks... in order to make playing big-tournaments work, i will need to play as many as possible.
