Hi all,

I registered into a 30 ppl WSOP Main Event Sat. Basically, there are 4 events. Each time, the points are as follow:
-1st gets 30pts, 2nd gets 29pts, etc... 29th gets 1pts.
-1st event has a 1x multiplier, 2nd event 1.5x, 3rd and 4th 2x (to keep it interesting)

I feel this structure doesn't incentivize risk taking at all (vs regular tournaments where most of the money/pts is gained in the top places).

What would be your strategy. Some choices:
1/Still go for the win (agressive) - worst strategy imo
2/Play very solid and aim to get as much points as possible. I think this structure rewards the guy who will finish 10th mutliple times vs 1st once.
3/Play solid during the first 2 events, then if bad results, crank up agression during the last 2 events. Imo, best strategy.

Curious to hear you on this.

Crazy Structure..... for sure you should play to last longer insted of play to win. Here the difference between 1st and 2nd is almost non existant.... Try to survive, play it as a last longer
