    1) what happened to gbmantis post about the shipit this way article? I think it was called the article vs reality or something? I can't find it anywhere, could someone please link me

    2) The other is I am a relatively bankroll-challenged person trying to build up my br through lots of lower limits...Many have posted on here about the $4 180. While you have to finish high to have the cash out be worth much, it can still be a pretty nice return on a $4 investment. I have played it 8 times and cashed 6 I think, including a 6th and a 7th finish - not bad for $4. BUT I found another very good one too. The $12 6-man. First pays $46 and 2nd pays $25. These are pretty much goldmines as I played 3 and won 2 and finished 2nd in the 3rd...I will continue to only play both of these for a bit but I like them better than $5-10sng which got a bit boring for me to be honest and hopefully through these other players like myself can build their roll into something big enough to move up a level or two. Several 6-man wins a 3rd or higher at the $4 one and players like us could be well on our way! I dream about being ablt to play 5 $100+9 in one day and not even think twice, haha :)

    GL to all

    what site? stars?

    I have played the 50-sng on party for 5+1$ (but that's a 20% charge, sorta nasty).

    While I have just played maybe 6-7 times... I have done v well, no firsts but a few 3rds and one time I got 2nd. Find the competition plays pretty crazy and loose in the early going, and then tightens up later on.

    that's some good competition.

    yeah on stars, sorry if I needed to clarify. I took my new winnings and maybe played a bit over my br for sure, but took a chance and multitable two $35 6-man tourneys...I finished 2nd in one and won the other and have over $200 now...maybe on my way to building a br? by far the biggest br I have ever had....now I could maybe start to really br manage? in terms of br management I obviously cannot continue to play $35 6-man, right? ppl would suggest moving down, I know, but how far? with $200, if i want to smartly build up, could I move down to the $12 6-man where first is $46....? what do ppl suggest, thanks!
