Don’t start a large tournament at 10:00 on a work night. While you always hope to win, with a field of nearly 1800 it’s likely that you won’t. You’ll probably play an hour or so and be out, hopefully you’ll even cash. Last night was good news, bad news.
First the bad. I played for nearly five hours and didn’t get in bed until 3:00 in the morning, then up at 6:45 to face a typical Monday.
The good news… I actually won the tournament. That’s my first multi-table tournament win. As a bonus, it was a freeroll.
