I just trying to figure out how like 6 hands in, so many people have already tripled and quadrupled up in such a short amount of time. Then like 20 hands later a bunch of people already hand like 10x the starting chip stack.
Are they just getting lucky with the nuts and calling maniacs?
I think I play pretty solid, but even after about 25 hands, I'm just barely at double my starting chip stack.
What's their secret? |

| Look at the top of the players list again at the first break. They're not there. |

Doubling your chip stack in 25 hands is pretty good for any tourney... unless you're playing a supertubo. You're big concern should be your chip stack compared to how many chips you're going to have to put into the pot each round or your M as poker players call it. |

a lot of early all-iners go out early, if not they usually dont know how to hang on to the chips and get really deep.
remember you cant win a tournament in the early stages, you can only lose it |
