Forget what I said about Stars $16s

[durron597]

Wow. I seriously must have had a bad run before, whether unlucky opponents or just unlucky cards (or maybe I changed something). But these things are just as fishy as any other low limit SnG that I've played in. Some choice hands from this set (I'm sure I could find plenty more):

Also feel free to comment on my preflop push, given tournament level of course.
