Full tilt SNG traffic?
Long time ring player, thinking of adding in some SNG's for a change. Full Tilt's sign up bonus + [unmentionable] adds a decent amount to my ROI if I choose to go that route. Is there enough traffic...

Re: Caribbean Sun
Caribbean Sun just rebranded themselves as Sun Poker, probably because nobody could spell Caribbean. They're still listed on BW, just as Sun Poker.

I'd bet the flop while I was at it. You're the PFR against 6 random hands. You have two overs and a gutshot, 3 of which give you the nuts. No one knows you whiffed. Pokerstove gives you a decent pot...

Why do people sit down at a table with 6 BB? And why do sites allow this?
I just started a game at Prima, and some guy sits down with 6 BB and change. First hand HU, I have QJ vs his AJ when a J...

Re: How do you put in the hours?
If you're playing .5/1, you're obviously playing for fun, and maybe a little extra spending cash, not for a living. So why put in more hours if it's not fun? Play as much as you enjoy.

Freeroll win--pure brag here; no content
I never play tournaments except for freerolls with good overlays. This was one. 10,000 AP points; only 55 entrants, paid to 18, $5,000 guaranteed. So this was pretty damn cool:

Re: why am i always in these spots?
You're in this spot because of your flop play. The pot is huge, and a set of sixes is not an invulnerable monster on this board against 4 opponents. There are two straights draws and a flush draw...
