With the advent of the re-entry tourney getting stuck for several buy-ins is not unheard of thus making the overall return of a decent run even smaller. A good ITM at the mid-level MTTs is probably 15-17% with a win percentage of 3 if lucky. It has also made people gamble a little more early on improving the chances of those tight agressive sharks like me to scoop them up. Unless of course I am playing on Merge where my hands never hold up. It is bizarro poker.
