Default Perspective

I can’t necessarily offer advice, but something to keep in mind.

MTT payoffs by nature are going to be few and in-between. X percentage of your ring game sessions should be profitable (what X is would be another interesting thread – 70% maybe?), if even as low as a few BBs a night. But you can play a dozen straight big MTTs and not finish in the money, then on lucky 13 you cash in big and end up in the black overall.

The other thing is the luck element. I don’t know how big the fields are, but there’s definitely a ratio of player-to-coinflips you need to win in order to make it to the money. Perhaps it is for every 25 players in the tourney, you need to win at least one coin flip? And if you don’t, nothing doing, no matter how good a player you are. The luck factor is just too big.

When the hell do you find time for law school?
