Big mistake in joining a late multi

[iplaycards]

Man I knew there would be a lot of people to but now I regret it.. I wish I could have unregistered 1 miniute prior. Does anyone know why you can't do that, it's like 15 minutes you can but after that you can't. Oh well if I take it down I'll be happy.. for a short while.

Good luck. I am headed to bed myself. Work comes awful early, but alas, I need poker money.

Iplaycards I think it is obvious you are a MTT monster. With all these posts of you making final tables you should be playing MTT's like they are your bread and butter. I have yet to make a final MTT table and I look in these forums and I see you doing it weekly. It sounds like you just need to critique your final table game and you will start cashing BIG! Play alot of SNG's and start getting 1st 20% of the time and then you can start getting some 1st's in those MTT"s.

You are a great poker player and you need to recognize this. Cash games are not for you where MTT's are. This is just what I'm getting from your posts's though, I think I have read all your recent ones and it seems that this is completely obvious.

Yeah I do well in mtt's but cash games are like crack to me. I just love winning cash pots but when you make it deep in a mtt it's like winning a big cash pot I guess. When I only made like 1 FT every 2-3 months I'd usually finish top 3.. I'm not sure maybe variance now. But I'll continue to play in some mtt's and hope for the best. Last night was $1122 but first was over 13k. Oh well BLNT I guess.

I hear what you are saying, but Hultin has a real point. Focus on MTTs for a while. You obviously have some real strenght there. Once you get your end game sharper, you will have a steady ROI. Maybe then, think about moving over to cash games.

MTTs and cash games are VERY different. The stratagies that crush one will fail badly in the other. I tend to split time between STTs and cash NL games. However, at any one time, I am playing 90% one or the other. This way, my STTs skills don't get rusty, but I can concentrate on improving my cash play. After a while, I'll switch.

Maybe this will work for you as well.

I wish I made mistakes like this!

I made the original post like 10 minutes in when I didn't want to play. Also $1122 sucks when first was over 13k. I keep coming close but can't seem to win. I really messed up in this game on the FT. But I guess if I keep making it far I'll eventually take one down or maybe not..
