The one tourny I registered late I finished 4th, so I like it. Before entering, you should view the current leaders and see if anyone is way, way out in front (i.e. like 10x the starting stack). If leaders only have 2x or 3x the starting stack, it's still worth it.

i find this to be HILARIOUS, honestly, would you avoid late registering for a tourney wth 300 players if the top ten read the following:

1st-11,000
2nd-3500
3rd-3400
4th-3300
5th-3250
6th-3200
7th-3150
8th-3100
9th-3050
10th-3000

?? that makes no sense, almost every tourney will have one, maybe even TWO players way out in front after about 5-10 minutes(except for the higher buy in events such as $50+)...

i would like to hear a response about this, im jsut curious as to what you are thinking.
