what you would rather question
would you rather play a sng for an hour and get knocked out in 4th (no money) or play a monster first hand and get knocked out (also no money).
it just happened to me (aces first hand)and i like the latter cause didnt waste an hour of my day. but i am hot hot hot now! |

Re: what you would rather question
Knocked out early of course. If I'm not going to money in a particular SNG, why bother playing through it?
I guess some people just like playing them, but I'd rather move on to another potentially profitable one then piss away an hour on one that isn't going to get me anything. Personally, I get pissed when I get knocked out on the bubble, and I usually just chuckle if I get aces/kings/set/etc cracked for all my chips in the first orbit. |

i like that little insight.
i think he may just like to play though, he plays micro stakes and to kill time. |

Some people gamble primarily as a form of entertainment. Thus the longer they last, the more entertained they are. (Ever heard that friend brag to you: Yeah man, I was in Vegas and played craps all day and I only lost $100!) We call these people "fish". |

Re: what you would rather question
indeed my buddy is a fish and he knows it too. he is forever reserved a seat at our home game which he almost always fills. God bless him [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
