Message: [QUOTE="ph_il, post: 7153544, member: 508"] this only works in microstakes mtts. I also play as a nit, so this strategy works more towards my style and my strategy. if I make it to the final table as a short stack, or the shortest stack, i become a super nit. depending on my opponents, I might end up folding every hand until I get to top 3. basically, if I'm in last place, im making the same money if I bust out in 1 hand or in 30 hands, for example. however, in the same 30 hand, there is opportunity for other players to bust each other out, which allows me to move up the post ladder. in microstakes mtts, players aren't always paying attention to other stacks and focus too much on their hand. some players can't fold, even if it'll benefit them more, and will bust out as a big stack because of it. I've finish in top 3 spots so many times by basically letting my opponents do the dirty work for me, even though i started as the shortest stack. [/QUOTE]
