How do you prepare for the biggest tournament of the year? Do you have one big tournament that you focus on, or are they all the same to you?

Been tryin for a few years and work always gets in the way.
Play on the biggest table you can find with the smallest pockets no matter the the size of the tourney tables, you will be able to adjust in a short time before the tourney starts

The way things have been going, I might as well have done it that way.
I start by warming up for a couple hours by myself and then find the best players to practice with or make small bets.
Its all about where you are with your game. I only play once a week at this point but my game is the best its been my whole life. So it takes me awhile to fall into stroke but once im there im there.
Personally I think when it comes to tournament play you have to bring your A game the moment they call out your match. Sitting around for hours can really take away your focus.
So for me I try to remained focused on the game the whole time im there and not get too distracted. If you are at a big event with match times posted its easier to get yourself mentally ready for your match.
I think experience tournament play is the only way to becoming a better tournament player.
