| Ok I said i was gonna make an opinion but until today i was abivalent about them since i did poorly on them = losing money, sure they where lots of fun but i hadnt the luck with me. Until today where I won some money in another pokergame and used some of the profits for 22$ matrix for the fun of it.
And i did well ,not fantastic but i hope its something thats easely repeateble. I won 1 first 1 second and took down the first on the matrix. For a good 2,5 buyin win.
Wich makes my matrix overall about even money. Since i played one 22$ and lost it all and some smaller where 2 i only got half back and 2 where i almost got the buyin back.
I do not normally multitable much , max 2 on the rare occasion i do it. So i was struggling in the begining but soon got the hang of it. And ooh yes i find them lot more fun than the standard tourney.
Ive seen on other forums that its getting a rather chilly reception with the naysayers saying it is better to multitable 5 standard tourneys. My view is that a matrix is alot better than other types of multitabling because it adds more dimencion to the game. And you can use diffrent types of strategies to get that matrix scoop. The 2 archtypes do you go for lots of KO (what i call dominatrix style) or do bet that the ones that do will get KO themself early in 2 of the games so you can beat them with high surviability.
Off course from my winning game i saw it wasnt exactly so straithforward ,i adjusted my strategy on how i was doing vs the opponents several times during the game.
From what i gather compared to a single game of the same buyin the prize you get from a good matrix isnt comparable to taking first so if you wanna have high prize for your win you better be prepared to fork out 3-4 times the buyin you normally play or stick with the single games.
I myself found that 2 times the buyin i would normally play is a good way for me to cut the risk/rewards , i feel i take less risk but get somewhat less reward when i do good.
Ill make an update in the future if i find it hard or easy to make money of thise. I cant be sure what to expect normally maybe today was just a fluke .  |
