FTOPS 2-5
by Adanthar on 05/09/08
Unfortunately, I only had time to play one event in the last two days, FTOPS4 (the 200 PLHE event), which went nowhere after a promising start. Who knew that the triple shootout would sell out 40 minutes ahead of time? I'd have tried the Stud 8 tourney tonight, as well, but some allergy or other that's making my nose itch like crazy also made me cut the day's session short after 5 PM or so (and just as importantly, I'm not nearly as good at S8 as at razz). Tomorrow's tourneys are a 535 PLO (no way) and a 100r (maybe, if I feel better and find enough other stuff to fill up a screen with.) Sunday is a 530 HU (probably not; I think I'm +EV in a field like that, but not by a huge amount, and its too early for my other tourneys) and a 300 freezeout (definitely); Monday has a 200 PLO8 tourney (maybe, since I don't horribly suck in those) and a 1K (meh, pass.)
While I'm at it, those of you that want to take a close look at variance should check out this MTTC thread, a 'best of FTOPS' competition. The fun part of this is to take everyone's overall results and just look at the # of cashes/entries (keep in mind that in a contest like this everyone plays 80%+ of all events.) Odds are only 2-3 people of those who didn't book a final table will finish with an overall profit, but nevertheless, the ratio of cashes to plays and the overall finish of all of these players will almost certainly be much higher than random.
