It is exactly this type of tournament that Arnold Snyder's "The Poker Tournament Formula" will help with. I've played enough of these FW donkfests to realize that you can't sit around and wait for the dealer to deliver good hands. Once you get past the first couple of levels, you need to play aggro in position (CO and HJ more than the button) to have your stack keep pace with the rapid increase in blinds. Literally, I consider myself short stacked when my stack is less than 12 big blinds not for the level I'm on, but 2 levels down the road.
I was actually thinking about heading down there after work today to play in the 7 PM Act II super, but I'm still on the fence. I guess I'll decide when I get in the car to head home.

thanks for the advice, I will probably buy that book, I read about it on that site.
Also, how much are those Act I and Act II things, and how do they work? |

The Act I is a Single table SNG $65 entry fee. Top 2 finishers get an entry into the Act II Single table SNG. You can buy into the Act II SNG for $250. Top 2 there get in the Act III super MTT which has a $1100 (I think) buy-in. Top 10% in that get a seat in the WPF $10k ME. There are also Act II supers which cost $150. Top 10% get an Act III seat. There are also $1,080 ST SNG's winner gets the WPF seat.
