Fulltilts new 300chip sng

full tilt poker just started with these new 9man SNG where u start with 300chips and the blinds go up every 3min,each tourney last about 10-15min.
Im just whondering if any on here haves played them,there preatty much just an all-in fest and probly just a matter who get the best hand win but if played 5 so far(at the 3.50$level) and if finished 1st.3times, 2nd. 1time and 3rd. 1time.
I realise that i have a tiny sample size but do u guys think such a high ITM and ROI is sustanable at such a high turbo level?

Like buying scratch-offs IMO. SnG lotto.

Once was enough for me. Throw everything you have learned about poker out the window. I didn't think anything could be worse than freerolls. I was wrong.

Heck, I think freerolls are pretty good practice for certain kinds of poker situations. But how you have to play in these won't help you at any other time. Save your money and buy a $4 scratcher.

What a ridiculous idea for a tournament, if you don't have time to play at least a normal turbo tournament why bother even starting a session.

Iv'e seen worse than this, heads up tourneys with 1 chip each, lasts exactly 1 deal. Unless there's a tie then it lasts 2.

What does FT call these games and where do you find them please, I looked but couldn't find them.

Just click on the degenerate gambler tab.

i played in a tourny that was $56 buy-in 9 plr with 100 chips starting stack. 4 places paid and 1st got a satellite to the 750k guarantee ($200). i was dealer first hand so i lucked out there and just stayed out of hands till there was 4 left and then got AA KO'd one guy then we actually played a little bit of poker with 300 chips each . i ended up getting 2nd and making a quick $126. was fun to try but NEVER again will i do it

Just listed under Sit and Goes, sort by buyin and find 3.50 + 0.30.

Trying one right now, just ITMed.

I'm kinda liking it. It fits my aggressive preflop style and short attention span. Little or no postflop skills required.

quicker obtainment of money from fees imo

I just realized that it makes me think of the shove-a-ment that was set a year ago or so.

Tournament, for CC members, setup as any standard tourney but the only move allowed was to shove all your chips. The brainstorm of a past member.

I can't believe that Full Tilt would steal like that from their customers...

i remember playing a 20$ sng where you start with 100 chips on FT to get into the 750K that was nuts

Steal? They're not forcing folks to play.
Kinda like the local government and the lottery - voluntary taxes.
