| Making the ideal spread of butter on bread is the same feeling that comes over oneself as winning your first SNG. It is a sensation unmatched by physics.[/b] |

No offense, but aren't you the same guy who asked if it was correct to fold AA preflop in a cash game? Congratulations on your first SNG victory nonetheless. |

| I've won many SNGs (all hold'em), none of which felt as good as the one I won just the other night. I have been playing Omaha for a while now. I can kick some butt at a full table but never seem to be able hold my own when it's short handed or heads up. I have blown so many chip leads when I've gotten down to heads-up. I kid you not, I have let someone come back from 360 chips to win. To see "You finished 1st" for once was flipping amazing! |

| I played 2 and won 2 today and the last won was tough he had about 75% of the chips and I came back to win. We gave the chip lead back and forth it was a gg. |

At the same time? The best feeling is if you multi 4 or more at a time & then you win 4(we call that a grandslam). I haven't done it yet but I have gone
1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd in a group of 4 and that feels awesome. I usually only multi 2 at a time, so 2 wins in one set feels awesome as well. |

| True. I won a $10, $20, and $50 all at once one night. I can't imagine how folks play four or more because being heads up on two tables and three handed on one was maddness. Sadly, my leaks got the best of me and I gave it all back to the poker community. Still, that night I was a contender. |

Well you can stagger the start times if that bothers you but it's really not a problem, just take a few seconds for each decision. |

Winning SnG's are nice but nothing beats winning a MTT. Makes me jump up and dance around in my underwear (if I'm wearing it that is).  |

Hitting a grandslam in SNGs does that(4 firsts in a row). |

having a monitor that can handle resolution where you have no overlap is really the key, once youve been four tabling for awhile 2 tables seems really slow
the only time its really bad is having 4 on the bubble at the same time |

Yup, still saving for the widescreens, my 19" can only do 2 w/ overlap, that will have to do for now, but I am adding a 2nd monitor so I should be doing 2 sets of 2 withoverlap soon. |
