Hi

Could someone tell me mathematically how much easier it is to make a final table in mtts with field sizes of 130 - 250 compared to mtts that have field sizes of at least 1k?.

Thanks

X/Y = probability of making final table where X is the number of seats at the final table and Y is the total player pool (assumes equal skill across player pool, not sure how you would factor in edge vs field)
