Podcast #2 today!!!

Saturday... 9/22 I plan to do podcast episode number 2.. haven't been able to play a lot of poker lately, between work and other things I've been busy, but I played a cash game and made up for some lost ground from me getting beat a little overall in the sitNgos.
MTT with fields over 100 and actually over 1000 definitely are my best game and I missed out on a $3500 guarentee for only $7 an there were like 400 entries only. Lot of extra money in these so I'll be looking to play this maybe tomorrow if I remember, but otherwize probably not until next week. I think the more entries the greater my Return on my investments tends to be since more players= more money, and since I play a game where I accumulate chips and avoid getting all my chips as much as I can, all the chip accumulation from small pots adds up so much, and then on the bubble I steal, and when I finally do get all my chips in it's either with a hand where my opponent has very little chance of winning, or very late in tournament when I'm near or on the bubble or in the money.
I'm experimenting with a BIG pot BIG stack poker style where I'm REALLY overbetting a lot and using the all in move if the pot is right, it's another style that looks like a maniac style, but late in the middle stages of tournaments when I have a lot of chips it really gets me set up to get paid off since I know which opponents are likely to call and when they're strong... and I've done a lot of work with the mathematics of it, and I tested it at an ultimate bet qualifier... went from 20k to 65k back to 50k back up to 70k and then decided to go to bed, nearly autofolded into the money... I still want to do a lot of work with this method before I can actually explain it to you and tell you the "correct" way to play it and the correct situations. You really have to know your opponents and make a lot of tough decisions just like small pot poker, but it's exploiting when your opponent is too tight postflop and too loose preflop, or if it's someone that you can get a good read on you do it with position.
