I play them now, just not a lot.I do play the $11r turbo satellites to the Million though. I think I'm addicted.

This is the best thing to do imo.I started from freerolls with the mindset that, if I can make it through a large field, then protect that money and not lose it, then I deserve to play.Then I grinded out about 700 $1.20 45 man sng's, to build. I donked some off and went broke once after having built up, but learned my lesson quickly.I think that was the biggest reason I got to here. Just moving up as my skill dictated through the money I was making.OK, I gotta concentrate hard now.Time for some Miguel Migs to listen to.

I think this is one of the worst values on the site. $21-41 dollars to win $215 is a bad deal, especially in a turbo format.You'd be much better off playing the $11 turbo double shootouts than the $11r. IMHO

I played my first one less than two weeks ago with less than $100 in my account.I think it was just the right time, and I felt confident enough after playing the first couple, and cashing, that I was going to keep playing them and doing well even if I wasn't properly rolled for it.I just felt my experience was finally there, and that I could just, do it. Depending on your experience though, I think you want 60 buy ins? I think that is it. You can definitely find it somewhere.But if you want more experience, grind out some of those $1.20 45 mans. Try a couple $5.50 45 mans.I definitely suggest taking that step outside your comfort level here and there, because I think it makes you play better.For instance, I've cashed in 3/4 of the $11r's, but only 1/4 in the $5r's. I think it is simply because I am uber focused in the $11r's, because it is/was, a little out of my roll.

I'll try 'em, I never have. I just seem to do well in the turbos. I am all about preflop hand ranges, so I think that helps a lot in those. I usually just try to win 3 or 4 pots, and its good. And there are only about 80 people in them for 14 seats or so.I'll look at the DS's though for sure.

Thanks for railing guys, I really appreciate it.Tough beat, it was either going to be that or the runner runner flush, haha.But....I'm getting used to them, this isn't even shaking me right now, so I guess that is a good sign.Cheers.Back at it tomorrow.

Ya man, good game. I don't think we got into any pots together. Tough beat for you too. It's tough to get through the maniacal loose calls at the end. I'll see you in the future I'm sure! That just left me with a taste of vengeance to win one of these now. Now I'm fucking determined dammit. Same time tomorrow guys.
