theresa113 0 Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 I should be packing for my mini trip tomorrow but instead I just signed up to play one of these silly things. So far I think I have played 10 and cashed in one for 10 cents. Link to post Share on other sites

I went 5x up on the first hand when my 77 boated on the flop and tried to tighten up, but within 5 hands the blinds were so high I was pushing again....and hitting boats with T6o, etc... funny, I think I saw quads 4 times.I still hate these. I had been sucked out on in 4 straight SNGs and figured I'd go play a game where I expected to get sucked out on, only to do it to everyone else....unfortunately, the .25 didn't help the roll much...lol Link to post Share on other sites

NickZepp 0 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 The only good thing about these is finish in the top 40 in one and you make up for the last 10 you lost. You really can't do that in any other tournament unless you finish really high in a tournament. Link to post Share on other sites
