So I can post an SNG in its entirety ... If I can do it for free, lemme know .. if not, I'll e-mail the HH to someone and they can post it. PM me.
I think there are some spots that are interesting and might help people.

| thanka. Apparently SNGs have died and no one wants to learn how to win one in 40 hands. |

Hey Nut,
I am waiting for support to respond to me and open up my damn acount and then I can do this for you. I paid last night to get my sub back from pXf for 6 months. They got a pretty decent deal where you can get your old sub back with no $99 fee. |

Awesome, thanks maf, although this was originally just for laughs ... I was close to tilt mode, so I decided to just play a $5 SNG instead .... like a maniac.
As the sng wore on, I took advantage of my image.
It was also fun to knock out 7 of 8 opponents .. some other guy got one first, then I took care of the rest. I doubt PXF adds the chat, but that was the really fun part.
Sending e-mail now maf. |

Link to a turbo win in 40 hands....
(I was on tilt control ... but in review, aside from the two pushes on the first two hands, I wasn't tooo wild  )
I got one nice suckout when I tried to bully a guy from the SB .. but, w/e
So, can you win a low-buy-in SNG in 40 hands?

As long as he doesn't have a high pair or a J or a 9 you are right in there. I think Gus Hansen would be proud.
OK so J9s>ATs. Seems like a suckout but you are about 40% here.
AKo v. QQ is <43%....and they call that a coin flip.
Hey, you won the flip and showed the power of being suited.
Nice one! Someone should have called your AA out of frustation...that was perfect timing!

Especially since I showed the first hand, and told them in chat the next one would be worse (Hand 2) ... and was, which I showed as well.
Then I told them limp/call would be a good move and then no AA takers ... |

I've knocked out 7 out of 8 players before to win, but I don't think it was as quick as 40 hands (I seem to remember a bit of a HU tussle), but I'll try and find it.
Would be fun to see if anyone has knocked out all 8 opponents in a SNG.
The replayer doesn't show it, but the chat was quite funny. At one stage, Nutjob put a bounty on his own head and offered to pay $10 to anyone who knocked him out (it was only a $6 SNG  ).
NutJobXXX said, "I'm now offering a $10 bounty on me .. I'm really serious"
NutJobXXX said, "I will transfer $10 to whomever busts me"
NutJobXXX said, "scout's honor and stuff"
NutJobXXX said, "hopefully I finish at least second for -$.30" |

OMG, I totally forgot about that. That was easily the best part.
And I was entirely serious ... ah, the powers of alcohol. |

I seem to remember Horseracing bragging about that feat once. |
