Not to many Mobsters on today as I can't blame them. Probably a lot of family gatherings. Glad mine all came to our house, but I did get in a bit of trouble for playing poker on Christmas.
Anyway wish yo luck and post your results.
I've placed in a few $1.10 SnG's and won a couple $0.60 SnG's so I doing okay at the level I play.

I think 22.80 and 18th place is nice result if it was freezeout, but on the other side, you were so close to final table How long was that tournament for you? I would play some tourneys with small buy-ins like 0.55 NLH but what I saw it takes around 10 hours of play if its not turbo. I dont want to play that long for 2-5 dollars

Doesnt make any sense what your saying about 2 hours of dead cards! Premium hands doersnt mean vitory and any close to that in a tournment! The winers of tournments usually are master of become bad pre flop hands into vitory hands! Premium hands usually are the ones who tricks the players into the mistakes!

G'day mate. Well i am pleased about how I was able to run quite well but do feel like the site screwed me when it move me too the table with such a cold deck. I must admit the there were a few moderate hands I could have played but they would have been bad calls at the time. I would have sucked out wins with them though I would rather blind out playing good poker then lose because I made a bad all simply because i was frustrated and bored wanting to play in a hand.
The tight strong play allowed me to fight my way to 18th place after 4.5 hours of play.

@Ronin- that's why i'm eagerly waiting for zoom mtt's/sng's to appear at stars- this will cure the problem of having to wait for premium cards for too long & eventually become frustrated and try to play any half decent cards- which leaves us you know where...zoom tourneys- we are waiting for u
