or if play is just so random that it's not worth it. Thanks.

The above line shows a lack of understanding.

Bad play, by definition, is bad and will lose to good play.

sng pt isn't for 'active info' during a sng

it's for gaining an understanding of when it is correct to push or call a push on the bubble, and figuring out ranges that are +ev for certain #players/stack sizes/position/blinds/calling ranges

pt doesn't utilize icm (afaik) so it's not nearly as helpful for sngs as cash games

At the low buy-ins, most everybody is playing tight at the bubble, because they are just happy to make their money back. Afraid of ending up OOTM.

I do NOT agree with this. at the 5's the players usually don't care too much about the money. alot of them are playing for fun, and they love to call you with junk on the bubble to "catch" you "bluffing". they get more satisfaction out of that than making it in the money IMO.

a quibble, lorinda - and I suspect that you know about 100x more about poker than I do, from your posts.

But especially for a new player, it's important for them to understand that IN THE LONG RUN poor play loses to better play - but in the short run you can get tortured severely by
"bad" players - gotta stay the course.
