Full Tilt announces multi-entry tournaments

[Chipless Wonder]

Multi-Entry Tournaments allow you to register for the same tournament numerous times, meaning you can “multi-table” a single tournament!

Each of your entries in a Multi-Entry Tournament will have its own chip stack and be dealt its own hand. You can register multiple entries at the same time, or use additional entries as a “second chance” if your first entry is eliminated from the tournament in the early stages of play.

Your entries will always be seated at different tables, and if you have more entries than there are tables left in the tournament, two of your entries will be “merged” into one.

Forgive my stupidity, but if they have the possibility to make "sure" your entries are at different tables, then this would go a long way to explaining to me why it always seems they put the large stacks together in a MTT.... which also goes to prove that it isn't "Randomly" generated, but it may be as close to random as a programmer can get it............IE: more to the point of it being rigged, not for their profit, but for addictive action!
Otherwise, sweet.... now I can donkey ten times as fast!

Is this for every MTT now?

So what is going to be the best approach to these games? If I can play my best poker on eight tables, would my highest expectation come from making eight entries in a particular MTT?
