Hey all - low stakes SNG/MTT

Hey all,

Ive been playing low stakes sng/mtt for the last 4-5 years part time and with my business slow (recruiter), Im having a bit more time to play.   Ive pretty much been a break even player with a few decent cashes and am looking to take my game to the next level.  So far Ive watched some of ttwist's and bigdog's vids and they have definitely helped my aggression factor.  My problem was that I was getting in the money, but not enough chips to do any damage by the time the final table bubble hit.  Yes, I was a casher.  Since ramping up my aggression, esp with 20BB left, Ive made a couple of FT with a nice stack, but my overall cashes have gone down.  Im assuming my focus should not be on cashing, but winning as this is where the real money is.  It's nice to see some low stakes mtt's that I play (thank you ttwist!).  Most of the other sites concentrate on higher level, which I just dont have the bankroll for (yet!!)

 

My goal is to be able to supplement my recruiting income significantly (more than the $1200 bucks i cashed out last year). 

 

Thanks for all your feedback!!

Welcome!

 

1.  It's ok to cash less but go deeper when you do cash.  That's a winning strategy.

2.  It's no small feat to actually make a profit so congrats on cashing out last year!

all of the money in MTTs is for top 3 places basically, so if you want a decent ROI you need to give yourself a shot at it. 

 

so busting in the early stages of the money flipping is a good thing imo because if you win a few of the flips then you can run up a huge stack and seriously threaten the top 3
