Re: Your strengths and weaknesses.
Strengths:
I prefer deep stack tourneys. Once I have a decent stack I feel more comfortable in pushing my weight around a bit (the problem, as we all can relate, is getting there
). My confidence increases, my ability to read other players increases and I'm more comfortable in mixing it up, knowing that if it goes wrong I can recover. I guess thats true of most people tho.
Weaknesses:
- I'm pretty passive and often overvalue my opponent's hands
- Impatient. I get bored easily, and can start making rash moves that usually find me sitting on the sidelines.
- I'm probably fairly predictable, I often make moves and decisions straight from the ABC book of poker.

Re: Your strengths and weaknesses.
steve and finno "deep stack poker" is not really a strength imo - everyone is better at deepstack poker than they are at super turbo.

This is not true.
People can last longer, sure, but that doesn't equal "better".

Two issues I need to work on, too. The boredom factor, and the over valuing of an opponent's hand.

Re: Your strengths and weaknesses.
I like them both.
I like turbo MTT, up to 180 players and SNG's.
I also like deepstack events, if I am in the right mood and willing to be patient, which is hardly ever.

i definitely like turbo's sometimes, i would much rather deep stack tourneys
or more to the point, relaxed blind level tourneys
