well I finished with playing my cash game, and I put that tournament while watching tv... and I didnt put any attention to it until I become 9/250 than I started violeting other players and made huge advantage... but I went out as favorite... 56,7%/43.3% I think he shoved UTG I was UTG+1 and call with QQ... flop K turn A there was T on flop also to give me str8 drow on river to go along with my 2 queens, but I didnt hit
Not easy to crack a final table with the 100K had a deep run 2 days ago for 72nd place will be even harder with the new 500 ones maybe Stars will come up with some better promos come the New Year GL.
Did this some days ago, before I started I said to myself, this one you are going to play serious.
I died by someone who called my allin with 92 suited or something , lol
I don't think I can have the same amount of concentration, it's really an exhausting freeroll.
GL cu at the tables
well I wasnt concentrate very much... I watched TV and played... when it got serious, I started to pay atention more I had 3 or 4 deep runs, around 50th place, but never won this, and it was my wish long time ago, but I stop playing them, because it doesnt pay off... better in that place to put cash game table and earn some money, than play this for couple of cents for hours...

No, it does not pay off. The time en concentration for the possible result is very intense.
I tried to play only hands, where I would go all in with if someone reraises.
When I got too low I had to steal some blinds, but I tried to play only top hands.

I dont think you need to be concentrated to play these games. With that amount of players and type of tournament, pretty much is basics. Not to say that most of the time is either fold or a reraise to an all in At least till most of the thousands are out

Why you must concentrate is that you must observe players all the time, recognize patters etc.
It's never good to call, but sometimes you "know" someone has a s**t hand and you need to play right to get all his chips, a proper slowplay, slowplaying can be very dangerous, this is also where you need a proper amount of concentration.
There are always Russian/Ukrainians/Brazilian chipleading calling stations, these guys you must get on the right time. This also costs a lot of focus thus concatenation.
I'd say... Try to reach the final table without playing like an arse yourself.

Not easy to reach final table in these tournaments. And in most of them the payout in final tables, is small. So if you wait for monster hands, it wont get you there. And i doubt being too much concentrated with get you there too
