Under the lights

I find it hard to stay away from MTT-R NLHEs for long, even though the tactics of some of the players irk me. The money up top is just too good. I got under the lights in an MTT-R NLHE again last night, and was the beneficiary of a nice money jump when one of my opponents inexplicably went all in preflop with T4o (ten four offsuit), got called by someone who had him covered, and hit the rail. Even though it's no fun to have fish at your table in the late registration period of a rebuy tournament, it's always a boon to have them at the final table :-)
