Playing $250 tourney advice needed

[cosmic87]

Hi, won a $250 ticket to a two day $500k tournament on 888 coming 7th out of 7 places paid with 3600 players, how different do you think I should expect the game to be on higher stakes compared to lower stake mtt tournaments, thanks.

I think you need to play something like in the satellite in which you won this ticket, that is, quite tight and accurate...

Just play your best poker. Do not get intimidated. If you won a seat, you obviously have a place at the tourney.
Good luck

Tight tight in the early rounds.

However, a $250 tournament is completely different from a freeroll. At the beginning, it is worth paying attention to the dynamics of the table and playing tighter. Not least because if it's a two-day tournament, it's probably Deepstack, so you can play patiently.

won it through the freeroll satellite, buy in for the tournaments I ever played in was in range of $5-$11 that is why Im a little nervous playing higher stakes like that but yes I got to not think the buy in and have low fear I guess, it will only have around 500 players and 500k GTD.
