SNG time

Had fun with various sit'n'gos last night.
Won a heads-up $5 Horse SNG, then $10 on a cash game before I saw one of the Token Frenzy tournaments starting up on Full Tilt.
For those that don't know about them, they are a $6+50c buy-in and basically one in four entrants gets a $26+$2 token.
In my opinion these are excellent value, play is generally very poor and once you've accumulated enough chips, which I did last night, you can tighten up and let people knock each other out.
I am now two for two in these. This compares with the $8+70c 2-table SNG which pay five people tokens and the 6th cash. One in three in these, which means I effectively paid outright for a token.
Last night there were around 220 entrants and 50 got tokens and I will take those odds anytime.
Also played a couple of $3 turbos on Stars winning one and coming 3rd in the other.
Plan to have another go at the $14k $26+$2 tourney, which starts at 7pm UK time, when I get the time.

It comes once a month after the end of every month.
With raketherake, they deposit it automatically normally on the 15th of the following month.
Nice score on Stars!

yo marky

yeah your right about those satellites on Full Tilt, just turned $4 into $26 and then the $26 into $109 satellite on 19th May for the $535 FTSOP main event. so its a 1 in 5 chance of getting a $535 seat, great value.

keep grinding

Hi Rossi,
