Re: ($200) Bubble w/ Big Stack and Micro Stack
23off is a 2 to 1 dog against a random hand. If you push and the SB folds you're still only getting 3 to 2. The BB can still not survive another round. Even if you win all the chips in a SNG you...

Can you ever play too tight in Omaha/8 ?
If you try playing any marginal hands someone always seems to have your hand wrapped up. If you play something like A2J8 your out against A23J. If you try to play KsJhTs9c your against AsKhJd2s. If...

Re: Normal swings
The worst downturn I've had is 15 buy-ins. However, that was at the $10+1 level at paradise where was a lot a loose action. I was waiting for spots where I had the best of it and going all-in and...

Converting UB bonuses to cash
I don't often play ring games but the bonus on UB is good if you can find a ring game with some decent action to earn the bonus. The ring games at UB seem tight and the rake is not that attractive....

Re: Quick UB questions
I think the best you can hope for late is to multitable a 30 and maybe some 20's. However with their recent promotion I noticed they had more action last night than usual. If you can get used to the...

Re: short bankroll question
For a short bankroll I would suggest the $5+.50 SNG's on either pokerstars or UB. Both have a good blind structure and should provide a relatively low variance.

Re: moving up to multiple tables?
I would suggest sticking to one table for the moment. Since you haven't played a lot of SNG's or no-limit holdem(assuming) then many different situations can arise that you may not be familiar with....

Re: Stars 15+1 Turbo vs. Party 10+1
I actually like the $15+1 turbos at PokerStars better. The players are a little tighter early on but they don't play on the bubble any better than in Party $10+1. I've only played 45 $15+1 turbos...

Re: UB sitngo foir pts: 3 handed
I think it applies more after the flop. i.e. Blasting the other big stack out after the flop with no hand and the all-in ends up winning with King high. I've seen that a lot and it makes no sense....

Re: Earning Bonuses thru SNG play
Stars is actually the best. For every $1 in fees you get 5 points which is converted back to $1 cash. So you basically get to play with no commission.

Re: Sample Sizes
Your $4.17 profit per tournament sounds a lot more realistic than some of the ROI claims I've seen posted. At least from a long term perspective.
