    i surf the net no matter how many tournies im playing. though i honestly just try and pay attention as much as i can because often times if youre just trying to play tight the first hour, you miss a lot of opportunities to grow your stack. I think its a big mistake if you always just sit around waiting for monster hands the first hour, cause really, the first hour is when the most chips will be donated by donks, and you definitely dont want to allow a better player at your table dominate the donks while you sit out waiting to have 10bb's so you can shove every hand
