Most +ev strategy for playing Venom warmup ACR w/ numerous day1s that allow combine stacks day2
ACR runs many tourneys that have day 1s, and if you play multiple day 1s you can combine your stacks, and I was wondering if anyone has done any work on the ev of playing these tourneys hoping to just make day 2 with a single stack, or if it makes sense to play as many day 1s as possible and combine your stack.
There is a "Venum warmup" that started day 1s today. In all, there will be 192 'day 1s', until day 2 on Sunday July 28th.
Is it even worth it to play a day 1, if I only plan on playing a few day 1s, knowing there will probably be some people out there playing as many as they can and entering day 2 with possibly 50x or even 100x my day 2 stack?
Any insight is appreciated. Link to the tourney in question is below.

Making day 2 multiple times and combining the stacks has got to be severely -EV just due to ICM.
EV[1st day 2 stack]+EV[2nd day 2 stack] < EV[1st and 2nd day 2 stack]
If every other player is doing several day 1s and showing up with larger stacks than you on average then you should be getting an ICM boost comparable to what you get by max late regging.
