Ok lets look at this from economical point

if you are sure you will get once first place you will have 200 tries paying each time 0.02 to get that place, more you get first place more you earn, if you do

so it can turn out good, but still you need skill and 4$ bankroll to earn back almost nothing, idk if its worth it looking at fact that its donk fest there, not real poker, get 50 - 100$ and try out something higher

In my opinion this tournament in early position is pure lottery because blind increase so fast so You can't wait for range like AA KK QQ JJ to go all in
so need to move with all A with crap kicker or any pair another way after few hand You stack is about 2/3 BB

I heard everyone of you saying that you have to be extremely lucky, well that's bullshit. Today i played one, seriously, trying to do my best reads and with extreme patience since that's the only way to play efficiently. I end up winning (not first, but i ended 11th or so), so it's not a matter of luck, if you think you are focused then you can surely win it.
The other way of course is by luck and doing all in, accumulate a good stack and then start to play seriously by then.

It's not arguable that's a waste of time, but it's completely possible to win if played seriously.

do you sit | and go's games or tournaments?
you must first figure
because you have to sit and go play unlike tournaments
How long have you been playing?
So start with what you want to play,
you're out there, you can begin to see how best they play
a sit & go or a tournement

I had played in this tournament a few times.Theres one time that i can remember that almost 9 people go all in at the same.It was almost like a flipout tournament LOL.It was really a donkfest.Pocket aces almost dont mean anything in this tournament.You might just as better fold it early in the tournament.

Only a few times I have won some money at this tournement. And it is luck at the beginning. When you get at the later stages you can more decide how to play. All in all I don't really like them, at 888 Poker the 0,02 tournements are for me much more interesting.

Stay away from this 0,02$ SNG, it's like a lottery and it's full of bingo players. You have no chance to win money from this SNG without having luck. The winner of this tournament is the luckiest player from the tourney, not the best! It is a waste of time, is better to play in 0,25$, 0,50$, 1$, 1,5$ SNG's if you want to play in tournaments with a little buy-in.

Usually I see players with status SilverStar (or higher) playing these tournaments
I have only one question.
Why? ; D

the minimum stakes i would play if it's not freerolls on pokerstars are the 50c 45man Turbos. Still have plenty of fish who are willing to spin up the freeroll money

This is the worst sng if you plan to win money. Any hand can win and not having a good hand in a while and you're out. Get some cash in for some other games not the super turbo so its not just a bingo game.

In my opinion, that tournament is one of the easiest to be in the prize zone. Actually, 1-2 times double your stack (approximately 6000-8000 chips), steal several times blinds in the pre-bubble stage, waste time as much as possible, and that's it. I've played it 5-6 times, 2 out of them i win 0.10c by that strategy.

You have no idea what you're talking about. It's the donkest game try playing a few more times I'm sure you will lose more than win.

.02$ sng

For many, this for players who are on tilt, looking for a last prayer to save their bankroll. Shove or fold poker with wide hand ranges.

I've played it enough to draw that conclusion. There are many players that don't care for 0.02c and can easily go all-in with medium hands. If you take the tournament seriously and play tight, you will win in the long-run.

SNG tourny

You will play against some very shady players. I have had many issues with the types of comments made at the low end sit and gos on Carbon poker. It sucks, but I just try to ignore it as much as I can.

SNG tourny

You have to expect that the play in low end sit and go's is going to be poor. They play a lot of hands and try to catch anything to win big pots. I try to play very tight in these tournys and if I with the best hand going in there is nothing I can do about it.

Played that tournaments for a number of times. Maybe 3-4 times I got into ITM, but of course that's tournament doesn't worthy of a second to be spend on it.

A year ago really liked to play at 0.10$ SNG 360, finished 2th for a several times and totally received far more than at 0.02$ SNG. For a cheap practise to play turbo, I believe 0.10$ it's not a bad choice. But of course, in order to play serious poker you gotta try at least 1$ SNG 45 players.
