    So...if your saying its not a skill game then this guy isnt very lucky...1 cash out of 100 tourneys....I would just put him in your stars buddy list and follow him over the next few days as he loses all that money back.

    Maybe you should check my friend Jitterbug777 to validate 12 turbos as a skill game. Another player that rings a bell is iamcastleman...hes a constistant winner as well. Push botting still takes skill. o and winning huge races in the money doesnt hurt either.

    Yes he does run well...sometimes; and when he does run well u will see him capitalize with a win a large percentage of the time, which most are unable to do (like myself). Though he has dropped a G before without a win, its inevitable with the varience.

    I have lost 70 $12 turbos in a single day with 0 cashes. Then FT'd like 5 the next day winning about 2 of them. Yes luck plays a role in these like any other form of poker, else fish would never play. But if you keep making +EV plays, you will win in these and they are a skill game. People can run bad and lose many and then run like god and win many. In the long run, the ones making the right decisions are the ones who are going to be winning, thus making it a skill game.

    Zoiks! You're right - that could be a clue. Get Shaggy and Scoob and let's load up in the Mystery Machine and get to the bottom of this

    I have a few things to say about this post. First of all OP you as a poker player must understand that even a broke clock is right twice a day, meaning ppl who shouldn't win are going to.

    Also the $20 one eighty man's on stars have and will be the best grind online IMO (with the 12turbo's add'd in) They are the most consistent due to the limited field size and atrocious play and have brought me out of busto many times back in the days when i would frequent the busto status.

    That'd being said these are a gold mine sir and you might be kidding yourself playing these but the avg 10 - 20% ROI guy in MTT's will print money playing these.
