Hello everyone,
I am very fortunate to have freerolled into the $3,000 1 million GTD Main Event at MGM National Harbor in their Potomac Winter Poker Open series going on right now.
I frequent this MGM location and often play between $300-$500 live tournaments there, and am a pretty solid player, winning on a small sample and this will be by far the biggest tournament I have ever played in. As a result, I have a few questions on the best strategy and how to approach the tournament.
Here is the structure sheet:

1. How should I adjust my game, if at all, to what is likely to be a significantly tougher field than what I am used to?
2. Given that you start with 60k chips, you can max late reg until the end of level 12 (20bbs at 1500/3000/3000), and day 1 concludes at end of level 15 (3000/6000/6000), is there a specific level or time that is most beneficial to register at? I figured playing hundreds of BBs deep where I am not the best at the table at the direct start of the day is not helping my chances too much, but I could be wrong. So, I was thinking of sitting down between levels 5-7.
Interested to hear what you guys think!
