Default My Noble Sit and Go Tonight

30+3, 6 Max -- just for the hell of it top two get paid out

1st hand of the tourny theres a raise from the CO, the BB reraises and the CO calls. Flop is Jd 3d 9s. BB bets out, CO goes all in, BB calls. CO shows AJ, BB shows Ah10s.... oooooooook knocked out

5th hand of the tourny the player who won the last pot is a pot with someone. Flop is 8d 7s 6c. Other guys bets, he calls. Turn is a 5. Other guy bets, he pushes all in, other guy calls with.......K8

big chip leader now

Somewhere around the 15th hand of the tournament this guy is in a hand with another player with a K,8,7 flop. He bets the other guy pushes he calls. He has KJ...other guy has...... A8

Chips go around for the next 5 minutes or so (and the first blind increase finally comes), I end up knocking the third player out when I raised him all in on a bottom pair, one over and a flush draw, and caught my flush on the turn. He called with top pair 2 kicker (my raise was an overbet of the pot -- around a pot sized raise would of been half his chip stack though, so I just put him all in) only a half

First hand in HU Im dealt KJ (and the blinds make their 2nd increase to 20/40) I have roughly 1500 in chips and he has roughyl 4500...I have some work to do and Ive made the money now. I raise to 160, he pushes all in.... well may as well, I call he has 6 6...coin flip. TWO kings flop..yay me (I hate when this happens, bc you think its so god but in reality you are in the same shape as if you flopped only one of them) River 6 --- oh well 2nd place 54 bucks. Still has to be one the fastest tournies ever.

Do you think these are profitable? I mean, at best you're looking at an hour, right? You've only got to beat 4 dudes and you're definitely going to have opponents who play WAY TOO FAST for the game.

Well, if your good, everything's "profitable" but what's your take?

Any chance of some collusion going on based on their win 5 (or whatever it is) SNG's in a row and win a mil?

That jackpot isn't applicable to $30+3 6-player SNG's. Their "win x-in-a-row" ones are the $5+0.75 10-player Maui's, the $10+2 Million Dollar one, and the $2+.40 12-player two-table "Dirty Dozen" ones.

That is crazy. You probably could have sat out the entire tourney and made it to the money.

That was the third one of these tournaments Ive played in. Ive placed 2nd twice and I won once, so Ive hit the money everytime thus far. (even though for 2nd place the 'money' is only a 21 dollar profit)

I kind of like it bc its a faster SnG that a full table one -- and first place isn't much less, since 3rd doesnt get paid out, so your profit for 1st place is almost the same.... if you have one to two idiots at the table, it makes it even easier, although you can get faced with a situation like I did, being down to the last 2 at a significant chip disadvantage. That was why I called the all in with KJ though, one double up and its back to even -- and at 20/40 blinds no normal raise Im gong to make it going to scare him with 4500 chips.

And TP I definately could of sat out into the money (and I would of had chips in the 900s not 1500 so it wouldnt of made a huge difference anyway lol). The nasty thing is Noble blinds go up every 7 minutes, not 10. So this tournament was under 15 minutes.

I may mess around with these a bit more often -- only thing that sucks is tournament play doesnt count toward your bonus

Default Noble SNG's rock

Ive been playing the million $ challenge ones off and on the last week. I dabbled with the Rio's and Maui's as well, winning both of those promotions runner up prizes (300 and 200 dollars respectively).

I know you cant clear bonus' (bonii? ) with tournament play, but i got an email from noble a couple days ago saying they put 10 bucks in my account, just for playing so many damn tournaments. Other than the long cashout times, I freakin' love this site!

well speak of these, I just played in one and was dealt KK the first hand. UTG raised from 10 to 20. One caller, I push it up to 120. UTG moves in, caller folds, I know exactly what he has and call anyway. KK vs AA yup

The sick thing is a King flopped.... and so did an Ace!

Quickest 33 bucks Ive ever wasted lol

Ok lets try again
