I am going to be playing in a satellite tonite for the Main event. I was wondering what strategy you would use. Should i play tight in the beginning, loose in the beginning taking some chances to build up. Stuff like this. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Please tell why you think such things work well for this.

gamble your ass off.


this isn't going to be won by the tortoise.

don't be silly, but be aggressive and take coinflips when you can against shorter stack

MTT players may help more

I would be aggressive as you're going to need to hit some hands and get paid off - if you're playing loose, you're more likely to get paid off if you do hit something. Especially if the blind structure is lousy where the blinds go up fast, you can't afford to play tight and wait for a hand.

Basically, out of 100-200 players, only one player gets the prize; so go for it hard.
