    <p>Good ideas.  I hadn't really thought about using SNG's to practice MTT concepts.  Thanks.</p>

    <p>Just looking for commentary of substance, not b.s.-sorry but I believe I am entitled to my opinion as well. If a terd wont flush, wait till the bowl fills and flush em again later-nuff said</p>

    <p>thanks for the support guys, and hairlip... I write most of my stuff to "me" two years ago, the stuff I wanted to know but didn't want to seem "stupid" asking in PD (flaming can be discouraging). There are much more talented writers\players on here and I will leave the highest levels to them. That said, I realize that were not reinventing the wheel with every article. I would encourage you to think a bit deeper about what I'm trying to convey, its my goal (even if its a bit lofty) to put something in each article that players at all levels can appreciate... and as I said in the article, agree or disagree, its the consideration of the subject that will most likely make you a better player. </p>

    <p>good article, and I can truly say that I used turbo sit and goes to help me with my push/fold game,it is one of the more important aspects of tournaments. Take a look at DJK, The Maven, DaisyXOXO. All of these players do very well in tournaments and are GREAT preflop poker players.</p>

    <p>Agreed. I think its good to mix things up and keep your game sharp. Each of the game types you discussed require a different strategy, and are all a different monster. In relation to mtt's, understaning each game type will help you when switching gears, and less afraid to make moves when need be. </p>
