    maybe we can get that guy who did the same thing a few weeks ago to comment...he didn't cash and i would be interested to hear if he regrets it.

    depends what your BR is like and what you feel comfy with...i'd take the T$ in a second lol

    Yah, I was only leaning towards playing the seat b/c I rly lucksacked my seat. I got knocked down to 120 chips at the 300/600 level w/ 3 left and came back to get the seat.

    I have been running good lately and I dont think losing in this tourny will affect me what so ever.

    i am def usually on the side of taking a shot here... but that is a lot of tourney $$.

    The fact that it is $1000 plus one of the tougher fields on the net, i would say take $, and thats coming from a shot taker :)

    you just won the nightly for 32k. and you satted into this 1k buyin. i see no reason why you shouldnt be playing.. its a tough field but you have a broll behind you and its def possible for you to run well and get a nice score. its a no brainer to me

    If not cashing doesn't matter, then play. Otherwise take the T$ and play the nightly hundred grand and sunday million a few times. Probably what I would do.

    Thanks for replys guys, I obv made this post leaning towards playing it for a number of factors. I know it is def the toughest field but also a great structure. Losing by my own fault for shitty play or taking a bad beat I feel like I will be able to roll with. So shot will be taken.

    Given that you just won the nightly hundred grand, wouldn't hurt to take a shot here.

    eh... I wish I'd seen this earlier, I would've advised against it. I don't regret taking a shot, because I genuinely felt like gambling that night, and I was running really good.

    In going through my Super Tuesday post in depth, taking the money would've been the smarter move and getting 5 free entries to the big Sunday events. OR... this below was suggested by JHAAS07. Oh well, hindsight is always 20/20, especially with gambling. Nice try.

    (from JHAAS07)

    <span>I think better investment would be to play:</span>

    <span>Nightly 100k- $162</span>
    <span>Daily 50k- $55</span>
    <span>100 Freezeout- $109</span>
    <span>70 Freezeout- $77</span>
    <span>100 Freezeout- $109</span>

    <span>This way you'd be playing nice big tournies and would still have money left over even if you didn't cash in any of these.

    <span>btw, I was the guy who's super tuesday post caused much debate, most advising against it. </span>

    he just won 32K in the 100K so all those tournies are well within his br now so it was worth a shot.
