I don't know what you have to spend on it, but I've had alot of success with the $8.80 R/A Turbos. People play like maniac going and calling all-in with the most atrocious garbage and then re-buying, basically creating a huge money added tournament.

There's one starting at 7:30.

Heart breaking. QQ is a huge hand and your chip lead wasn't so big that you wouldn't want to put an end to this right then and there. My only criticism is that you didn't shove PF.

No problem with 2nd hand. Your short stacked at a short table and you flopped top pair. I would have played K2 the same.

Nice going though. Try it again.

When I’m trying to satellite into the P.S. Sunday million, I prefer the 11.70 double shoot-out. With 100 capacity players, 4 seats guaranteed, with 5th to 10th paying $35.00 each.

Every time you get to the second table you’re given 2 more free buy-in’s.

When trying to win one of these I usually will stop after ten attempts in any one week. Total risk is $117.00. Of course you could never get to the second round not once, but I usually get their 2 maybe 3 times out of ten. If you never get to the top 4 and win the seat valued at ($215.00), you’re cash risk is usually reduced by hitting second table at least once for sure. I’ve won the seat and hit second table enough to prove a cheaper way to play the million in the long run. Now the only problem is to at least get to the final table in the million.

I also find these games play a little different then the usual 1 table SNG's. They seem to be a little looser. Never play these shoot-outs close to start time for the million, as they start to play like a freeroll.

I said top pair, not two pair, speaking of reading it right. He does have a slight chip edge over the shortest stack though.
Nothing changes. He played it straight IMO.
