Default Anyone notice obscene tightness at low buy-in PS SnGs?

I've played 4 5+.50s today and they are ridiculously tight. The last few days was the same story. Any idea what's going on?

Do people use these SnGs to clear bonii??

If I could get anything better than 83o I could play much more aggressive, but I'm running as cold as I've ever run.

I've noticed the exact opposite. It doesn't make sense for them to play SNG's any differentto clear bonii, as they get a certain number of points per SNG entered, not per SNG hand played.

Oh it's the monthly "are the SNGs getting tighter" post.

It's called variance.

I would think that would suit a laggy-lag-lag like you. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

These posts used to be every 3 months. Are the "are the SNGs getting tighter" posters are getting looser? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

That's why I think they enter the tournament and nut peddle into the money (hopefully). Seriously they are as tight as I've ever seen a low limit SNG. I just had the blinds folded around to me 4 times in 2 orbits 8 handed.

I, on the other hand, was just playing a $5.50 where I raised the $20 bb up to $150 w/7 limpers already in the pot.

I got 5 calls. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
