tournament edge is good for MTT, but wouldnt recommend it for hypers or anything less than 180 sng's

Played two zoom tourneys on stars, bubbled both in near identical ways.
First one, UTG and UTG+1 limp pre 15bb and 30bb deep respectively, I check from the bb with 72o 15bb deep, flop comes Th7h2x. I bet out 1/3rd of the pot, both call. Turn comes 7d, I check, UTG shoves, UTG+1 calls, I call. UTG shows AA and UTG+1 shows KK, river comes A, gg.
Second one, I have 32o in the bb, CO shoves 1.1bb, button calls I call as well. Flop comes 32Kr. I donk again, button raises, I jam. Turn comes 3, river is a 4, button shows pocket 4's for the nut full.
Like the structure. Small prize pool but because its turbo and because most of the players suck the bubble pops fairly quickly. Only problem is I can't seem to get my hud to work properly with the zoom table.

I have no idea which site would be best for 'hypers'.
I know of some decent ones for sng's, turbo & reg. STT but have never checked into vids. for 'hyper' format.
For anyone looking into SNG vids. > Matt Meo (Glitr) puts out some great stuff! (& is an excellent coach)

Happy New Year everyone. I had a pretty good December so hoping to just play well and make some final tables this month. Got ~$500 worth of MiniFTOPS tickets (sat frezys ftw) so looking forward to playing those.
Goals: Silver Star on PS and maintain Gold Edge status on FT.

railed my g/f in the MiniFtops#1 for awhile yesterday - she was in top10 with 400 players left but ended up going out in 212th Was exciting for awhile there.
Handful of small cashes for me yesterday ($10 buyins, final 30-50 places sorta thing) 2x 2nd in small field priv. stuff (CC Stars for one), and only one I went deep in was a $2.75 $4k on Stars I entered on a whim (while railing miniF). 9hrs. later went out in 4th (BvB 3bai 20bb's JJ < KQ). If I win that flip.. 'woulda' been CL final 3 Oh well, got myself another 30buyins for the Sun.Storm, lol.

Played some sng's today, ran hot as the sun coming second in 4/5, but it was kinda fun.
How many do people play per month on avg for decent volume? Like 500+?
I'd play them but I think I could only manage around 300-400 per month and that seems like not a lot :/

depends on how many tables you play. 15 tabling you should be able to get 100 in per day.

I play for like 2hrs max per day I'd say, so don't think I could get 100 in, if 10 tabling, possibly 20 :/
I only played 5 at once earlier, but getting down to the last 4/5 in 4 of them got a bit hectic. Would you play them in sets of 15, or 15 at a time contiously? Seems like sets would be the easiest as your not going to be too stretched out when it comes to blind levels, but volume would obv be higher playing continuous.

I much rather play in sets, I think when I'm playing all different blind levels and am trying to reg games at the same time, I'm not really focusing. Plus it means by the time you get down to the bubble, you have a few less so you can focus.

When I was grinding SNGs, I found sets were preferable to keeping a constant amount going. For all the reasons you both state plus it added less stress trying to get to the lobby to open another game. I couldn't use any of the table opening tools as I mixed 18 & 27 man SNGs at $5 $10. Also for a fixed amount of playing time like your 2 hours you can manually add more games late in a set if you estimate you'll have time before your playing time expires.

Just picked up a seat to the Beast 75K this Sunday through a $7 satty, pretty sweet. Sunday will be a pretty big day as far as tournies go. Already got the #1 event for OSS lined up, still trying to get a seat to the 100k through satelliting in. Also got the Bovada 100k, so hopefully that runs well. If I manage to run deep in any of these events I'll be sure to let you guys know. Wish me luck!
