Default Really?

Maybe. But reading the PTP thread, it strikes me as tremendously –EV for msusyr24.

Consider this very likely scenario. This guy, a very talented SNG player, grinds and grinds, eight, ten, 12 hours a days, playing 15 tables at a time. He makes upwards of 4k in the first 25 days, a remarkable achievement at these levels. But he hits a downswing, and ends up winning "only" about $3500 in 30 days.

He finishes the month completely burnt out on poker. And instead of having won enough for a nice vacation to recharge his batteries, he’s in the hole for $1500.

If he has the roll and talent to do something like this, why not play a reasonable amount of $100 SNGs? He could well make as much if not more, and much less risk of losing his mind.

I'm also reminded of this guy, who pulled it off ...
