I don`t know why but it seems much harder to raise
players out of a hand in multi table tournaments. Maybe it is the level of
player involved, or maybe just much looser play. I got a good run of cards
early on and managed to get my stack up to over 3000 chips from the starting
stack of 1000. From here onwards I really struggled to get involved in the
action. I found I was getting re raised a lot, and was forced to limp in at
times or try some steals. I held on until after the break but in a weak
position. Eventually realized I had to make a move and did so with A6, after
the flop came A6x. I was called by AT he hit the T. I definitely need
to gain a lot more experience in these games as I feel a lot less confident
than with the Sit and Goes.

Multi-table tournaments require a very different strategy to SNG`s. You do have to play a lot more aggressively, and be willing to gamble, especially in the first session. The other factor is that at this stakes level ($10) it really is still a crapshoot, so I wouldn`t take this result to heart...
