Juniorbomer $22k  22nd

[AceofWands]

The top six got amounts ranging from $1,146,574 to $580,724.  The kid who agreed the lowest amount appears to have come 2nd when they played it out.

There was a pretty lol deal with 6 left.

Stars gave the chop numbers, then shortstack says he wants more, so top two give him a bit. 6th now is getting more than 5th, but 5th guy agrees?!?!?

Juniorbomer $22k  22nd

he was horrendously unlucky to the australian tunafish. lost 20 70%ers in 10 minutes and would have had about 60m going into final stretch.

I think it's just luck, sooo many runners in a one off tourney. the guarantee attracted loads who wouldn't otherwise bother.

Is there anything in the fact that between them the FT'ers have played very few games between them???

Seat 1: Unstoffable - 2 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $237
 Seat 2: tunafish919 - 350 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $21,891
 Seat 3: BLAABAR - 328 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $5,423
 Seat 4: SkunkDen  - 180 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $3,642
 Seat 5: fireballdio - 80 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $39
 Seat 6: Dimedroll  - 210 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $2,939
 Seat 7: kaalen - 42 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $1,596
 Seat 8: yokouno1980 - 5 MTT's - Pre 10A Losses $210
 Seat 9: First-Eagle - 733 MTT's - Pre 10A Profits $20,360

Clearly First_Eagle was the experienced, (only) profitable player at the table. Excluding him, the others averaged 150 MTT's for 2011 - and all as losing players...

I don't really keep tabs on who wins what (bar looking at the money lists every now and then). Is it a normal occurrence to have so many inexperienced losing players at a FT of a Sunday Major?

Does this mean that luck/variance is much much more important than skill in these bigger fields?

could play on different sites.

Looks like he may have used figures from the last 1 or 3 months etc
