Final table only paid right, these are obviously gonna have a very high varience but don't give up, you'll be happy when you cash =)

another version of this is the full tilt cashout mtt's where 75% of the money is at the final table given that you don't cash out

Looks like the Stars $9.90 final table paid only tourney. What happened to your chips before this hand? Even though your goal is to get itm in this kind of tourney, can't really do much with 3bb.

I like valurb's play lol

ya its a turbo so they got turbo-ed away. did i blind away to here? probably not really, but a little. i realize what your saying, especially cause it never crossed my mind to fold to the finish (there may be +ev here no) but im not saying omg i was almost there, im saying omg im always almost there, my mtt avg is high but i guess never top 10 maybe theres an issue there.

Send me your late game HH and i can take a look at potential shove/reshove spots. I know you were asking about shoving ranges earlier so it looks like that may be an area of your game to work on and might be the difference from cashing vs FTing. <-- @gmail.com

i think we should do a thread where we take on a whole mtt from a forumer and blast it with comments. a few hundred hands should one have only 20 or so played to look at (or 40?), other than deciding whether or not folding preflop was incorrect.....

would be nice to get a better picture from everyone on how we battle the whole game.
