as for the MTT I have won a freeroll and made a few other final tables but in every MTT ive been succesful in theres come a point where you have to stake it all on the percentage chance of hitting the right card.
vERY TRUE and you have to pick your spots with imo a made hand , if you ever have some time to spare,check out annette_15 hand histories on pxf.One thing that i think would help many poker players is her 500k win on full tilt.The key to annettes win is aggression but not in a maniac way , she never calls a raise for 300 hands , she is the raiser or the re-raiser [and the re-raises are with strong hands and you will be surprised that she does that very few times] and for all the hype that she is loose aggressive is complete nonsense , she makes moves yes BUT she does it as the raiser and knows when to back down if there is resistance
she is very good at adapting to table dynamics and doesnt over do any each style switching gears at the right times and slowing down again at the right points.Also congratulations
smileriraq on your wins a freeroll is no easy feat, its not easy weaving a passage through so many weak players.
Here is a hand history of a point in a mtt where it was required to show heart and also what do you think of villians shove ?
