Hi there,
I cut my teeth on ring games, and am just starting, over the last few months or so, to get into SNGs. I've played about 75 of the $10+1 games on Party, and last night played my first $10+1 2-table SNG. I'm just curious whether people here think these are worth playing. First, the game (I actually placed first, to my surprise), lasted quite a bit longer than twice the average one table game (everyone REALLY tightened up on the bubble, much more so than I'm used to in Party's 1-table tournys...I think it was five players for close to half an hour); and because only 4 people place in the money, your chances of winning are significantly reduced from the 1 tables. I wonder if the increased prize amounts make up for these things?
anyhow, sorry for the newbie-ish post, and thanks for any responses.
