So as most of you are aware, i used to play mtts only. For the last ~9months i've been dabbling around in other forms of games, mostly playing PLO and some 6max NLHE, and only playing the bigger tournaments, or when i'm bored.
In Vegas i didn't perform too well live (due mostly to being an alcoholic, and playing 8 events rather than the ~25 i planned to play). However i played a small amount online, and managed to win a tournament for $20k and ~$10k in winning from omaha.
HH for my stars $150 win

So now FTOPS and WCOOP are starting, i'm trying to get back into playing tournaments. The last few days i've played a fair amount and not really enjoyed it that much - even choosing to just play ftops and a 300fo yesterday to prevent getting burnt out.
However tomorrow is sunday, which mean losing lots of money, my current schedule looks like:
Pokerstars
12.45 $215 Sunday Warmup
13:00 $109 NLHEfo
14:00 $109r NLHEr
15:00 $55 NLHEfo
15:15 $55r NLHEr
16:30 $215 Sunday Million
17:00 $55 NLHEfo
17:15 $215 NLHE HU
17:15 $55r NLHEr (1 rebuy 1 addon)
17:30 $530 NLHEfo
18:00 $322 WCOOP ME sat
18:30 $215 Sunday Second Chance
19:00 $100 NLHE
and FTP
13:00 $75 NLHE 6max
13:30 $55r NLHEr (1 rebuy 1 addon)
14:00 $256 FTOPS#08 (basically the brawl)
15:00 $153 NLHEfo
16:00 $535 FTOPS#09 (HU shootout)
16:00 $75 NLHEfo
18:00 $322 FTOPS#010 (FTP sunday)
19:00 $75 NLHE
19:05 $215 Sunday Mulligan
~$4800 in buyins
So should be a fun day. For the rest of the FTOPS i think i'm going to go back to grinding cash while the FTOPS isn't running, and just focus on one/two tabling FTOPS and stars $150/$300 nightlys. Obviously other sundays will be mtt grinds, but i just don't think i can go back to solid mtt days.
There is a nice few weeks break between ftops and wcoop which is good, and then when wcoop starts i'll either play cash and 1/2 table WCOOP, or add more mtts into the mix if i'm liking tournaments again.
One last thought - the more i play cashgames, the more i feel tournamenst are crapshoots and less fun. However the bigger buyin tournaments generally have a better structure, and clearly the better structure tournaments are much more fun since there is way more play - gogogo run good WCOOP one time!

well its only this bad on sundays, but to play everything ~100k
You could probably skip a few of them (500fo/109r on stars etc) that are tougher higher variance and get away with a lower roll.
Also if you are playing smaller donkaments midweek, cash midweek, or buying into whatever you can with FPPs you can also get away with a lower roll. |

i'll still be playing bigger mtts, just not going to be doing the daily mtt grind w/ the smaller ones day to day.
Can make more per hour playing cash, and finding cash fun atm |
