Ive qualified for the sunday 1/4 million on stars the last two sundays running, last week on my account and tonight on my dads.
Both weeks I have been stacked up early, which isnt hard seen as tho half the field is in lemming mode for some reason. I play fast early, just because I dont wanna grind for hours for no pay, but no to the extent some of these guys do.
Anyway, I know there have been threads in the past specifically to do with this tourney, Im too tired to go searching now but will in the morning. My question is does anyone have any good solid advice for these things. I mean, 20odd thousand runners... you have to gamble right? Can you play solid poker and expect to get a good return?
I find I lose big chunks of my stack making mistakes... ie: Flopping underpair, its checked to me and I bet out, get check raised and have to pass (this happened twice tonight at critical times).
Ah well. Cashed both times, last week about $25 and this week $80. Would love a good cash in this thing, there is so much money in the pot. Has anyone got really deep in it and can maybe shed some light on proper mid-end game strategy?
Like I say I can recognize mistakes Ive made which cost me big chunks of my stack, but any advice on general strategy would be appreciated.
