I've played 4 5+.50s today and they are ridiculously tight.

Wow you played 4 sngs? Then this must be worthy of a post to confirm your findings.
You playeed 4 SNGs, play 400 more and then keep it to yourself because you will still have an insufficient sample size.

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.

4 tabling tonight in the $5+$1 on Party with the new Party Beta and it's about as far from poker as you can get. 3 or 4 handed at level 3 is very common.

The chat is filled with 'Damn, folded 43', 'We'll be here all night'. If anyone takes more than 2 seconds it's a sea of 'zzzzzzzzz'. No one is under 50 VPIP.

I'm sitting with AK on a A rainbow flop on one table, I look up to check the stacks of who I'm against and everyone is in the pot. Surreal.


Anyone here got the testicles to play like FreakNRIver with this UTG first hand of the game?

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

It's called variance.

The $60 turbos are playing a lot tighter than the $27s did. And I'm looooooooooooooooooooooving it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

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]
