MTT's, by design, will have insane variance. If you're one to get tilted from losing a couple races, MTTs just aren't for you. In lower buy-in MTTs you'll have a large volume of poor players - although I guarantee even the $55 tourneys have their fair share of poor players, they just get weeded out more efficiently. Poor players can result in some wacky busts. I think my most recent "WTF hand" was when 3 6 called my 5x BB raise with TT and the flop was 9 6 3 rainbow.
If you feel you excel at 9 and 18 handed games, stick with them!Low buy in big reward seems nice, but if you aren't particularly good at MTTs, there's no need to spew money there. I'm a total nit when it comes to BR management after losing my first 4 $50 deposits and I still play 11+1 turbo 6 handed games primarily, coupled with low buy in turbo MTTs and satellite SNGs even though I have sufficient BR to play higher. I have a good ROI in all of those, so there's no need to change anything imo.
In your case, making 5 or 6 dollars in an 18 man SNG is always better than losing 3 in a MTT |
That's been my thinking pretty much for a while now.....and I'm being successful playing the 1 and 2 table SnG's. Why change a good thing, right? I have won 3 of the 360 player freeroll tournies, but getting there usually involves EXTREMELY patient play and having to dodge more bad beats and win more races than I am comfortable with if I'm using my BR to buy in. On the freerolls and the Ferguson ($1 buy-in), there isn't really any risk financially, so I'll play those if I have some time on my hands and want to take on the challenge. |
