So why STTs instead of limit or NL ring games?
For those of you that exclusively play SnGs, why do you play them instead of the other forms of poker? Is it because you believe they are the most profitable? Is it because you enjoy them more? I'd like to read some of your responses.

A strong argument could be made they are most profitable, but frankly, if your killing any form of poker at fairly high levels you'll be extremely profitable so you ought to play the form you like the most or have the most capacity to play.

finite time expenditure
excitement of the changing shorthandedness lower variance ability to learn more about your opponents than is often possible in ring games because people get up so often the payout structure semi-finite field of study i'm good at them lots of stupid people play them, and keep playing them. there's probably more, but that's what comes to the top of my head. citanul

barriers to entry? citanul [/ QUOTE ] Sorry, I've been meeting with marketing people today and they infected me with their "biz speak." I mean it's harder to learn (i.e., you can't go out and buy a book), so I feel like there are more fish and less good players.

4) Significant barriers to entry [/ QUOTE ] Do you mean it's more difficult for new players to learn SNGs (and maybe the Party structure) well resulting in more poor players? Or do you mean something completely different..?

Re: So why STTs instead of limit or NL ring games?
that's cool by me. i'm familiar with the term, i just don't know if the barriers of entry can be used as an explaination of chosing sngs over ring games. after all, ring games have a signficant barrier to entry to the land of winning as well.
what's nice, and why we make money, is that there is no barrier to entry to the tables beyond the entrance fee. citanul
