    Ok so heres the deal. To sum it up this year has been a tough one for me. As a backed player I have only had a few small cashouts this year thus far and life roll is suffering, not to the point where im almost busto but its a little to close for comfort. So after discussions with backer hes allowed me to take my own action on Full Tilt for now to use up my full tilt points(which was agreed i could keep before getting backed, as i had a lot already) I have 800k Full Tilt points and am wondering what is the best way to use these to make sure I get the best return(accounting for variance and such).

    So im Leaning towards $26 45-90 mans as i can roughly get 130+ $26 tickies, otherwise some $75ers. Otherwise perhaps playing smaller field $26 tourns along with the big doubles(thinking sngs would be better value then these). Basically I am wondering if there is any opinons against sngs or for something else perhaps given the points Roll i currently have. This money is likely to be cashed out not to be used as a bankroll afterwards, so short term return is preferrable as it wont be going back into games.

    Money will be withdrawn not put back into play, So most profitable short term option is essential.
    are 45-90 man sngs best?
    what stakes to use at?
    what are other options? and what do you feel is best?

    I'd get the 26$ tickets and grind the 90mans and maybe throw in a mtt here in there. You'll get cash for the KO's and most likely bink a few. Gl man.

    The lowest variance way is to get $26 tickets and grind the matrix sngs. But if you're a tourney player the 90 mans could be a better option.

    I'd crush the rushes (which is what I did when I could play :(((....) SNG rushes have the best value of anything on any site IMO. If you're a capable multi-table player, who can do 4-6 at a time, with an aggro style you can rip of 30 in a couple of hours and if you're good enough make 200-300 a day. That's just the 4 dollar rushes, because the people in those play way too tight (or at least they did before black friday)

    You're def right on in thinking the $26 SNGs imo. You can get 130 buyins so that's the perfect roll to grind 45 mans at least. I'd play half and half 45 mans and 90 mans. The 45 mans will keep your variance in check. GL.
