I think I made $8 for my $3.40 investment... not the end of the world, but better than losing. HORSE adds a lot of variety, and because of the structure, an 8-person, 1-table tournament finsihes pretty quickly.
I'll admit I hit a 2-outer to stay alive when we were three-handed.
Maybe next time I'll keep track of my starting and ending stack for each game we play... that would be interesting... I do know that I lost most of my stack playing HE. And I seemed to make quite a bit back playing the split games... Its frustrating to go all in only to split a pot headsup, though. Also, its tough to lay down a low-draw when you know he's going after the high...but if you don't make your draw, your day is done...
