The $1 sng's are especially brutal events. You are faced with a variety of players and styles. It takes a lot of luck and a little skill to avoid all the land mines in these things. Players going all in with 10 4 suited is not uncommon. This morning I victoriously defeated my foes in one of the most excruciating 45 man SNG's I have ever played It lasted 2 hours and 20 minutes and there were so many rivered 1 outers caught I was sceeered to play a hand in the beginning. If any one has ever played in these you know what I mean. I was dead last with 18 players left and then the winds of change came. No longer were the players raising with 34 suited hitting and I had a few high pockets hold up I soon became chip leader and held it till the end
It's a Miracle lol
