@ALG3nius My favorite is a quote that nobody talks about 'I feel like I have trouble making my teammates better right now. It's what I should be doing better.'
Everybody gave him the benefit of the doubt that he's talking about playmaking instead of throwing teammates under the bus.
Won the first satty ticket of the summer. But before that broke my single day bullet record (6x, was 4). I don't care who you are, shit is not easy to keep firing when tilted. Felt more proud of myself than days I just run super well or play ok on bullet 1.
Noticing a lot of people that are trying to make it in poker often times firing off in the massive field events. EV may be greater but with a limited bankroll need to be more careful and fire events with less variance like small field events. It isn’t as glamorous but better for growth, experience and all around headspace.
Pay attention to rake, structure, and what other tournaments are going on that can make the tournament your choosing a better choice. For example when the monster stack runs, maybe the $800 at aria has less elite players.
@slickdickson I get that having a stack covering other players is immensely valuable because of the bounty. I still don't think this is any different than your spot. Say day2 first hand you open BU off 11bb, sb 3b jams a covering stack and let's say 2 players on the table have sub 6bb.
