Reasons I (or You) Enjoy SNGs

[ThorGoT]

Curious as to why other people on this forum enjoy -- or, at least, play -- SNGs (as opposed to other forms of poker, primarily).

Personally, I like two things. (1) Repeated, short term ratification. If I money, I am happy. I like short term projects that I can complete and know were successful more than long term ones where ratification does not come so quickly. (2) Not boring. I just cannot sit & fold & fold & fold in ring games, even if I know it is the correct strategy. SNGs, it is easy to fold a bunch of hands early if you have to, as you know you will get to play (indeed, have to play) late. (3) Oh, yeah, variance. Less of it. So I guess there are three things. Maybe I will think of more later.

Although this is mostly a self-indulgent post, I wonder whether there is a psychological difference between people who play SNGs and people who play ring games (limit or NL), such that some people are more suited to one than the other. Curious to know what others think.
