I will not really complain (it probably still sounds like a complaint but try to ignore that) but:

I think I have pretty good averages with my postions in games: 21% 1st 19% 2nd 19% 3rd 12% 4th 8% 5th 9% 6th 9% 7th. That is 59% in the top 3 with 157 games played. Yet that brings me to a total of 2391 points for the month. I play 200 tables most of the time (that will probably be the key here?). If i look at the top 5 nobody played more than 300 games so far now so there is not much to gain in playing twice the amount of games for me.

No problem there, i am happy with my ranking and i enjoy the game so my only remark is this: if I look at the top 25 table, i don't see many people with the same avarages as me, most don't even get to 50% of top3 finishes.

So point gaining is the most important aspect of the game i am not getting, winning seems to go reasonably well. So if someone feels the urge to give some good advise on "fair ways of point maximising", feel free to enlighten me....

You need to play at the 1k table.

thx to allfor the replies; I am affraid i already knew the answer to my question. Looks like i will simply have to overcome my fear of losing 500 points in a single 1k game. Now that I think about it: when I first started playing the 200 tables, losing 70+ points also made my blood rush much faster then it does now so... see you all (or at least the very good players ;-) )at the 1000 tables soon!
