    Hi, I was curious how many of u play the 45man sit and go's on FTP?
    I noticed just awful play there and figured they are one of the most +EV things I have seen on FTP for a sng/mtt player. What do you think the chances are to succeed (turn into 1k-2k playing them) in them ($26's) with 500 bucks to start (well above average player).

    Thanks for your time

    They are beatable, but with $500 a would hold off on the $26 level and start at the $10s

    I'm not so pleased that the__d__ry has been including the 69+6's in his game selection lately. These really are great, but I'd prefer if they were kept a secret.

    He's played a couple dozen in the last couple days and already has at least one first and second. Nice 88 in the bb earlier today btw.

    haha, no, with 5 left, I shoved A2 or A4 on the button with ~12bb and ran into your 88. It was the last hand I played today, so it happened to stick in my mind.

    l play the $5 and $10 45 man and they are very easy. As long as you can get aggro arond the bubble and know what you are doing you will make bank. I would have move up in stakes but when you are in college money is better than movine up in limits.
    Good Luck, If you are good this is easy money

    I play a lot of these and average ~ 34% ROI in the $26 and 47% ROI in the $75 games - all on Full Tilt. I'd absolutely love to see them add some $109 ones. :)

    While some of what you say may be true, it is not hard to go 0 for 15.

    ya 109s would be awesome

    i ran at ~65% my 1st 600 or so, but the next 300 brought me down to 20%.. think i played about 1000 now and am at ~27%

    I hate to come off as a jackass here, but KA1SERfknS0ZE is WAAAAY off... 30% ITM is not even close to possible. I'd be willing to wager that anybody over a thousand game sample couldnt manage 22%... All the best regulars are generally cashing between 16-18% in them. Over any 2000 game stretch, the variance can be pretty huge, but they are going to be insanely profitable in the long run.

    Very impressive. :) I've averaged 29% ROI (20% ITM) over 807 games, so we're pretty close. :)
