friends. I often play satellites and I managed to win 2 tickets to tournaments with a guarantee of 150 and 200 thousand dollars. there are usually a lot of players.
I am very worried now and cannot force myself to play these tournaments, I am afraid of defeat at the very beginning.
give advice on how you would play these tickets and how to gain self-confidence. the validity of the tickets is big and I can’t start all the time. I have no confidence because I am still a weak player
the selection took place for 0.33 cents on PS where they give 5 seats

Well it's depends what time of tournaments they are slow turbo or hyper.
On each type must play different so but my suggestion is while blindes are small took your time wait for your opportunity to double up and there you will gain confidence to play rest of the game.
No need worry about defeat it's part of game and it's not gonna make you a week player if you will loose in early stage.
Enjoy and good luck.

You just have to Jump on in. I mean yeah they are big tourneys but if you're always afraid of a bad beat or early ejection , you will never advance. It's going to make your heart pump because you obviously don't want to lose but that's the thrill of the game. Good Luck to you and hope you cash in some way

So I worry about the very beginning of the tournament and try to set myself up to play the most TAG in the beginning.
Thanks for the advice and support. I hope I will have the courage to start playing these tickets the other day

I find, when I Don't look at the Tournament Lobby until close to the end or after about three hours into the tournament it helps alot...

when its just you and the other opponents at the table you cant see the 700-3000 other players... but once you've completed one ticket the next tournament is never as many players...

Just keep your eye on the current hand and then the next.. focus on that and every thing else will just happen by it self...

Good Luck I wish you the best of my luck.... wish it back to me when you're done with it...

Hey- you WON the tickets right! When I say won, I mean earned. They were not draw via lottery. Maybe some luck was involved. Sure. But sounds like you get a check mark there as well.
Use it to your advantage. Think about all the chumps you're up against that paid full price to enter :)

Yes yes yes, here I am about it. I go with my forces every day, tune in, but then, when the time comes for the ticket, my uncertainty will push me back[emoji36][emoji36][emoji36][emoji45][emoji45][emoji45][emoji43][emoji43][emoji43]
