Re:I AM FIN SPEECHLESS
Both of these are standard. Dude had 10bbs to begin on hand 1 so he's never raise/folding. #2 is uh-oh that sux.

Re:AA in an $11 SNG
+1 You won't lose much value by raising more. Especially from EP, you want to raise at least 4x to discourage calls from ppl w/ position on you.

Dumb but easy question
I can't find this on the internet (probably just not looking hard enough)... Does ROI include rake' For example, say a player has 0% ROI. Does this mean the player is breaking even overall' (Or is he actually losing 10% of the buy-in on avg.')

Low-limit STTs: FTP vs. PS
First, I will compare/contrast the sites' structures in regard to one-table SNGs. Similarities: - opponents' strength - length of game - game selection Differences: - antes (Full Tilt has none) - blind levels (Full Tilt has more, in shorter periods) It doesn't seem like one strategy could be used on both sites with the same amount of success. I would like to know how to best adjust to the differences in the structures. Main questions: Is there a case for raising more hands at one site than another' Is shoving light decidedly less profitable on FTP (due to no antes) than it is ...

Re:Full Tilt SNGs - Stupid Lobbies
I've tried that. They still pop up, just behind the game itself.

Full Tilt SNGs - Stupid Lobbies
Is there any way to prevent lobbies from popping up as soon as the SNG gets full' It's possible on PS, but on FTP the lobbies drive me insane.

Re:SNG bubble-Good fold?
Obviously, he's calling my shove. My next question is how far ahead of his range must I be to profitably shove' I'm not great at ICM calculations, but I thought I was supposed to avoid big stacks on the bubble. Could waiting for the button to shove on the mid-stack possibly be a better option' It would be sweet if anyone could give me the numbers on this.

Re:pre flop line sng
I'd like to know the answer to this question as well. Playing small PPs late in SNGs is my biggest weakness, and I usually just toss the cards. 77+ is probably good to raise, but I'm not sure how much. 44 might be a fold, depending on the # of players paid and the buy-in (competition level). I'm not sure if calling is horrible with 25 BBs. Hopefully someone can tell us if it is and why. Also, please specify the number paid and type of opponents.
