[QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 1542522, member: 33113"] Exactly ^ As far as your (Mr whatever) notion while playing tourney to take into consideration 'how many chips you'll need to win it'... this is nonsensical. In an MTT we're adapting to each situation at the time, in later stages alot of that is about stack sizes and how they relate to your stack & to the blinds. MTT's aren't my recommendation for a newer player to focus on either (unless you're planning on doing some homework on playing MTT's so that you'll be entering them with some kind of an edge on your opponents). MTT regs. recommend having 100buyins in your roll for MTT play.. there's a reason for this. Sure in super micros, cashing at 20-25% itm isn't hard to accomplish but big cashes are going to be few & far between. (although when I first deposited online, my very first game I ever played was 'The Ferguson' and I actually placed 2nd in it for $114.00 which was kind of a nice start... although I'm sure I would've done better if hadn't had that tourney experience/cash and if I had just stuck to one game type instead. I'd HIGHLY recommend sticking to just ONE game... ie. if it's NLHE SNG.. then only play the 9plyr. (reason being.. get to know the game.. get to know it inside & out). If you're new & are jumping around from 9plyr. to 18's then to 45's, back to 9's etc., it'll take you far longer to become a winning player. When you stick to just one format you will become so aware of how the games typically play out which is a big advantage. As far as running into the same players.... if you're playing the micros there's a HUGE pool of players in these.. and even if you've played around 100games you'll likely only see two players you've played before (maybe more as you play more....ie. I'll often see 3.. sometimes 4 on my table... or if in a 45man sng.. I'll have history with maybe 15 or 20 of them (smaller pool). This is no big deal at all. I can use it to my advantage if I have history with my opponents... especially if I've taken adequate notes and there was some stuff of particular note from the past (metagame stuff). I do this all the time. The reasoning I think that branching out to other forms of poker is good, is because my experience has been that it generally makes you a better player overall... in the longrun. BUT.. to be just starting out & to be attempting to become a winning player.. I would NEVER recommend this ever. When I started out I jumped around at games a bunch & it wasn't until I really just stuck to one form at a time that my bankroll began to grow. As far as having the same players on your table goes (for SNG & MTT play).. another huge benefit is... it really helps you to be able to identify the regulars quickly. (< how could this not be a good thing?) Personally I prefer it if I've got history with half or more of the table as I can use it to my advantage... playing randoms... ffs.. you never know what they're all about (esp. in early levels).. when you get some of them donkbetting POT on flops, etc. (have they hit a fr'gn monster.. or more likely air.. or MPGK, or something.. or a draw.. who knows... point is you don't know if you have no history with them... even if their play is 'typical' say of an overaggro spewy player (with history it's far easier... these players don't switch it up much if at all).
