The land of the ones

As I've mentioned before, I infinitely prefer 6 max to 9 max. I've vowed many times never to play 9 max again. I know that's an unrealistic goal, but it's something to strive for. Among its other advantages, 6 max sometimes has pay structures which get you to the land of the ones even before you reach the final table. What do I mean by the land of the ones? I mean the payouts which only pay that amount out to a single place. If you can reach the land of the ones in an MTT, you're definitely in the clover. Last night, the land of the ones started at place 9, even though it was a 6 max; I reached it, although just barely, finishing in ninth.
