Each time I come across the same juggernauts that clean house in PT, they do the same to me here... the only possible variation is that I get into a group that doesn't have the whales - much the same hope that I have every week in PT.
Yes, tournaments are fun - in a different way - but I don't think our hope to supplement our income based on tournaments has much of a future.

I tried a lot of the 8 team tourneys as well on Tuesday (had most of the day to sit around and mess with it)... typically ran into at least one juggernaut team in the open tourneys (with the expected result
)....
so started looking at the gold/silver/bronze restricted setups... and while you still might find some of those same teams in the mix (and they might have a more extensive roster to choose from), it still evens out the field better...
finally got off the schneid last night with a tourney win in the super big gold setup (2 gold packs as a reward).... made the semis in a daily live-only gold as well (with only a handful of live golds on my squad
) so at least got a free pack out of that deal....
so maybe shoot for some of those style tourneys.... some might take longer to fill up if they are 64 or 128 team setups (which I don't mind as I sign up in the morning and let them fill while I'm at work)... so just be patient and keep at it... luck will hopefully smile on us all at some point
