I received a crash course on the cards playing in a F2F $$ strat tournament this weekend.
I grabbed AT&T and had nearly all 1s in the field with Y Gomes behind the plate. Found myself with a solid rotation and a durable bullpen (4 inning limit over any 4 games).
Despite the tour's draft analysis putting my team a consensus #3 out of 12 teams, I got crushed in tour play.
In a span of 12 games, Andrew McCutchen has 0 hits, Dustin Pedroia has 3 errors (2 in consecutive innings), and I watched a power park team hit 6 HRs at AT&T via 4 *1* rolls (2 in one inning).
When three opposing managers remark, "god, I've never had these great rolls and splits ever" - you know to grab you cards and go home.
Lesson learned - when you can't identify the idiot in the room - it's likely *you*
