PotemkinCity 1 Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 thanks i appreciate it, they're droppin like flys now...obviously.down to 68, im 12th in chips with 74k.have a lot of big stacks at my table that refuse to tangle. could be a good thing, could be dangerous. I am not used to having a big stack this early, if i make a FT it is usually in the late, late stages when i accumulate chips...i have had to toss so many hands I'd never really toss i don't think. I do need to make a move and get back in the top ten echelon though... Link to post Share on other sites

I do need to make a move and get back in the top ten echelon though...not yet you don't, take it easy bud this is the crucial stage.Play extremely tight in EP, try to steal the blinds in late. Standard stuff I know but mistakes are made at this stage by trying to get cute to build your chips stack when you really don't have to.you are 12th, still 68 to go. You are in the top quarter of the field. don't make a move if you don't have to.I am speaking from experience. I get to this stage and then usually do something stupid.
