Build Your Reputation – Avoid the Pros!

Most of the tournament pros now are on circuits.  So, if all the pros are going in one direction, you may want to go another direction.  The Wild Horse Tournament in Oregon for example.  The players are likely easier to beat, and the pots are just as good.  But, this tournament is not on the pro circuit.  There is the advantage.

Just look at the schedule and follow a different direction than the pros.  If you look for tournaments that are not so well known, you’ll find a weaker field, and you’ll get the same prize money. 

They are all on track for player of the year awards.  They are all registered with Card Player and the other magazines.  So, you’ll get the recognition you are looking for in the medium size tournaments and avoid the pros.  You can make your name and money there while building a reputation for yourself.
