Did I just luck out or are these SNGs extremely soft?This was my very first go at one so I am not sure if it was luck or if these SNGs are full of players experimenting.I would love to here from other HORSE players or anyone that has played these level HORSE SNGs. |

For those who can't really afford much else, these are a good profit maker it seems. |

Okay, I posted about how great these were hours after they showed up! I've been playing them and consistently getting paid but not usually in first. Bad luck, bad beats, etc. You want to talk about the RAZZ portion, check this out:
http://pokerforums.fulltiltpoker.com/viewtopic.php?t=14408
Generally they've rocked and had good players. This afternoon I played one though and it was a total donkfest. Three guys maxing out the reraises on every bet. Which led to me starting with 6K chips against 4 other players with 1,500 each. I had a sick run of cards. Four full houses in 30 minutes! Caught my cards every time. Sick. Makes up for the one I linked to above.
I'm loving these. Worst case I make a quarter, best case I make $2.75. I know it's tiny, but it's consistent and it's fun and I tilted and blew my BR about a week ago. |

| Those of us who can't afford higher limits (or just want to practice cheap) should get together and get into the same SNG. Anyone want to join one in the next few minutes? |

I wish I saw this reply earlier as I would've joined in a heartbeat.I actually had a few bad luck attempts after this post and have been a little bummed at my overall play.I really think I will focus soley on these SNGs and see if I cannot slowly turn a small BR out of it. |

Doc just watched me bust out in 5th on one. Placed 2nd on the next. I've placed in 7 out of 9 so far (2x1st, 2x2nd, 3x3rd), which ain't too bad considering some of the donkey moves I've made. I think I'm done for the night though. Hopefully we can play a few tomorrow. I'll see if you're on before I jump in one. |

The 5 dollar horse sit and go's are close to the same game, as far as weak players go. In any one you may find a couple of guys that have a bit of a clue...but the rest are just bad.
Most of the people play over agressive in the holdem and are weak in the rest of the games, you can really make chips in the other games. |

I am utterly dissappointed with my play in our game of HORSE tonight.One stupid hand that I knew better than to play,I knew I was outkicked atleast and was almost certain of the boat.I have no idea why I did not throw my trip aces,but I will get redemption again hopefully.Good game wheell and sorry I had to donk out like an a$$.I am truly embarrassed for my lack of regard,especially in omaha.Good luck to you! |

AP King,
I ended up taking first in that game we played last night. For a profit of $2.75, but it was fun making a 4 dollar win.
We were heads up for about 20 minutes and the blinds got up to 800/1600, took him down in Omaha8...
See ya at the tables again, |
