Default Possibly the craziest SNG ever

Just got done with a SNG at Party in which 6 players busted out in the first 9 hands. WTF, talk about loose. Problem for me was I didn't get to play in a hand and had 775 chips after paying the blinds and the other 3 left all did the knocking out of the other players and each had well over 2000 chips, I was really screwed. Still a funny game nontheless.

The blinds were still small right? No real rush was there? Did you end up cashing?

A friend of mine told me that he once eliminated every single player in a s/g on PS before the blinds went to level 3!

Cheers,

I didn't cash, they all played very smart and never got into a pot with each other. I played pretty tight and shoved my chips around with big hands just hoping to double up and be on a level playing field, but they did a good job waiting me out till the blinds got high enough and finally my all in with AK ran into A5 who hit a 5 on the flop. Honestly they did a great job of avoiding confrontation till I was gone.

Exactly - great time to steal the blinds.

Default That was my question

this has to be a $5+1 on Party right? Unfortunately, that means you are not going to have that much time to be patient, so you have to get pretty aggressive in either stealing blinds, or better yet, doubling up. Still, go to love being in the final four while still on the first level.

Does it seem to anyone else like they're seeing games like this more and more frequently, where a majority of the table is just maniacs and call stations. It just seems like I've been seeing tables like these a lot more lately, its comical yet can be really annoying at the same time.

Default Not for me

Actually, this has not been the case for me. I think the poker boom, while still going strong, is leveling off a little, and I'm finding that the play at my 2/4 game is (just a little) better than it was six months ago. What do others think?
