Prepping to play deep stack live tournaments Wish I could play live cash games but the casino out here only has spread limit. So right now I'm just saving money so I can pick a few days each month to play in live $200 and $300 BI tournaments, including the events that seem to come to town every other month. In the meantime I might find some local smaller tournaments, study/read, prepare to fold, raise when I can steal blinds...

In the last 4 years I've only played in 4 live tournaments at casinos, and held in there but didn't cash. So let's say the average turnout for the $200BI is: 100-170 people 25,000 chips, 30 min blinds. $300BI is: 40-80 people, 30,0000 chips, 30 min blinds... How long can I expect to be playing to cash?
