Noone should have to play the way you want them too. in order to win it you must first be in it! and since alot peoples goal is the same and that is to move up the ladder, playing to win with 2 tables left isnt a good strategy. id rather have 10 good ITM's then playing to win and bust out or maybe win and finish once out of 10 games!
