Origins of the X Factor system

Posted in Sit and Go Poker Tournament at 7:20 am by sitngovideo

 In my Sit and Go Poker Video, I explain the X FactorTM method for playing tournaments, including a simple playbook.  The X Factor System is an enhanced version of the “M” system recently popularized by Dan Harrington in his Harrington on Hold’em (which I first learned about elswhere and recently discovered its actual heritage).  Dan reportedly credits Paul Magril with having originally invented the “M” system.  M a proven, effective approach to tournament play that’s now even easier to understand and follow using the playbook.

So, my X Factor Playbook system is a derivative of the M system, where I attempt to simplify and standardize how tournament play should progress (esp. for sit and go poker tournaments) based on the X factor value.

I just wanted to clear that up, now that I understand its origins more fully.
