If you have a good stack and get a little bit of lucky then you can finish second while you are sitting out Good thing its not a big tournament you are playing cause then it would have been very hard sitting out

THAT's a real BumHair snippy-dude... RIGHT when your killing it,...you have to leave...!
Like Mober said....you could finish well depending on a few factors. I might have called in that I'll be late for work. Finishing in first place would skyrocket you WAY up the leaderboard. Playing well for the duration of the leaderboard period would give you some cash,...and maybe enough to make up for an hour of lost wages...

The payout structure at FT are not so good. You must Play 3-4 hours to reach a itm place. But the software are great and rush poker at FT are the best. And the SnG´s are verry nice to play.
