A few nights ago, I played in a really fun event on BoL. It was a $1 Ante Up (or Ante Only) MTT. The structure is 5/5 blinds with an ante, and the antes increase each level while the blinds remain 5/5 the entire tournament. This structure presents some interesting spots, and totally changes the dynamic of the entire tournament.
Long story short, I finished 6th out of 350ish in a game where I felt like I was card dead. The reason for my deep finish was mostly due to the on the fly strategy I developed in this game, and the inability for my opponents to adjust.
Before I reveal the details on how I played this structure, I'm curious if any CC members play these types of MTTs or have played these in the past; and what (if any) style of play you have found to be most successful.
P.S. This MTT was part of the Micro-Series going on right now on BoL. I love these types of tournament series because the wacky games have big guarantees, which equates to a large fields of clueless players.
