Frustrating playing these. I tried playing much looser and had a VP of 52 and to some degree I'd have some mild success, but more often than not I didn't and when I'd get good cards they tended to get cracked. One high point was I had pocket 5's and it looked like I'd be done in when I hit Quad 5's. Anyway I'll keep playing these and see if I can find a strategy that works well for me.

On the good session I had over the weekend where I messed up on the last hand thinking I had flopped a straight when I didn't, the early part of that I was in another SNG that I needed to pay attention to, so played very selective cards. That seems harder to do when my attention is there full time. Part of the problem is I see cards that if I'd jumped in I'd have hit plus seeing others play junk and win. Gives me a bad mind-set leaning toward tilt!!

On the previous Freeroll where I said I though the LAG wouldn't make it to the final 250 I thought I was going to have to eat my words. He had made his way up to 1-4 and seemed to be holding there with up to 156,000 chips and on average to make the 250 you need 52,000+ so it seemed like it would be a shoo-in. Alas, it appears his need to play got the best of him and he went out 337. Still it was impressive that he could accumulate so many chips with his style of play.
