Dogged by the big stack.

Re: PS $27 turbos = PP $?
I started out playing SnGs on Stars, and only played a few on Empire before Party murdered them, so I'm back to Stars. I've been beating the 22s at a decent ROI, and I'm a complete noob to SnGs. I...

Re: Bonus Paranoia?
Maintain two accounts at each site. During a bonus period, you can deposit to the first account, transfer funds to the second account, then your cards won't go dead, and you won't incur the bonus...

Pushing three times in one orbit.
I've become a convert to the push/fold method, and recently moved from the 22s to the turbo 27s on Stars.
I frequently find myself in this situation: I have had no cards at all through the early...

You simply cannot fold your PP every time an A shows up. That would be bad poker. Like others have said, this is very situational dependent. But here's a general rule to go by. Put out a...
