But why play a game of "skill" like its bingo? early on i can see taking a risk with a decent hand but to gamble with trash like you see ALOT do is just mind bogglingQuote:

imo, i absolutely HATE when players do this, i mean its nice to double up off idiots, but most shove med. hands and get lucky! esp. when im only trying to fire 1 bullet, 2 at most!Quote:

This is honestly one of the best ways to build your stack in a microstake MTT. More often than not, I can grow a 10K stack into a 30K stack early on by abusing the people who think all-inning with any hand to steal blinds and double up on what they're hoping is a coinflip. Half these people are only playing that way in hopes that every one else at the table will play the same way.Quote:

1 Playing "badly" - advertising - is something that works only against familiar opponents. If you bust out with 5-8 suited, the only value you have is that some more sensible players at the table will be more likely to call you when you have a premium hand, remembering that you push with trash. If you rebuy and get put on another table, they won't remember your play and your advertising is essentially wasted.
2. understand that you will get no respect and very little chance of getting away with bluffs.
3. This strategy will give you higher variance - so its more likely to give you a monster stack early, but you'll be busting out a bunch more, so be ready to have the sufficient BR to back it up.
I am not sure how this can be productive to your game but I guess I have a lot more to learn cause I am the one usually rebuying into tourney anyway. lol
Ive only done this on freerolls between acr and bcp lol.. i never have enough money to buy in constantly
i think you're missing the point. its not to play good, it's to play 4 the lolz and entertainmentQuote:
