Another "big one" Sunday on Pokerstars for me

One thing that I've spent some of my recent winnings on is $27+$2 satellites for the $750,00 guaranteed $200+$15 buy in tournament on pokerstars this Sunday. I think i played three of them, but I just won one, so now I got an entry.

My question is. Any advice? I've never played a tournament of this size or caliber before. Has anyone here ever played in one? Didn't think i'd have an even bigger event this weekend. On SUnday I got the Super Bowl, the CC big one on stars, and the $750k guarantee. So any advice would be appricated.

-i have to say, on a side note, winning the entry was almost more of a rush then my recent tournament win.

It always seems to become quite a crapshoot in the mid-late stages - preflop play is crucial as very few flops are seen after a while. Aside from that it's just standard tourney strategy - tight-agg early, loosening up when the blinds get significant, etc etc.

Personally I'd just withdraw and take the T$ and play a load of cheaper SnGs, but I'm more a reduce variance and play it safe type than a take a shot type. Good luck whatever you do.

I know it would definatly be the smarter move to take the $T, but I don't think i'll be able to pass it up. We'll see, but i think i'll probably end up playing it.

Whatever you choose, good show on winning the seat. If you do play it, just stay in your game. Dorkus was right though. Had a seat in a 250K a while back and there was limited table play after the third round.

Nice win! But really id take the $t and play a selection of higher sit and go's. The 750K has such a HUGE crossection of players its amazing, your basically facing player that deposit just for that one,experienced players, sat winners etc etc. Some of the junk hands thats played is amazing.
