OK 1 thing i need some info on when it comes to merging.Say the final table is reached and they merge the 2 entries you had left. Now there are 8 people left. Did the entry that gets merged get 9th place money? I mean what if you were 1st and 2nd. I dont get that part of it. Im at work, so cant really read the link you posted but just curious as to knowing how that works out.yeah. although i guess it's really cool for a MTT grinder as you can increase your volume significantly by multi-entering. But if you go deep with several entries, there must be some EV loss ICM-wise when two of your entries get merged.
Imagine having an entry on the last two tables?

It's actually a bit of a nightmare in that you then need to run ICM computations in order to figure out if it's less -EV to voluntarily bust your shortest entry in 10th place to collect two payouts or take the EV hit of having your two entries get merged at the final table.
Actually, it seems i misread and when you get merged in the money, you get the payout for the place you got merged at. If you also get your chip stacks merged, than it turns out to be very +EV. Weird...
Just remember folks, you only have 2 ankles so if you're running more than 2 entries you're going to have to start looking for other parts to stab.
Stay safe out there.

I am playing the $2.20 that starts in about 45 min only going to buy in 2 times but lets see what happens. I like the idea. I cash in a good % of the turny I play so this will only add to the amount I get to play at once. I tend to go for deep stack and prefer to play bigger fields so more opportunity for me to play.
