Default 10 player sngs

are these that profitable?

i mean when you play with 5-6 people sngs, it's quite hard not to finish in the money (1-3) but your chances are vastlt reduced when it goes full table.

obviously it depends on what standard of player you are. but was just wondering from people on here who play them if they have found them profitable?

Lately Ive been playing the 12 player SNG's at Titan. Top 3 pay with the 4th getting the buy in + fee back. They play at 2, 6 max tables and dont merge them until there is 6 left so its always 6 max. Plus if you somehow win 4 of them in a row you get a jackpot bonus of $2000. Not bad for a $2.40 buy in.

I always play the 18/27/45 player SnGs on stars. I seem to be turning a pretty good profit so far....although the last 5-6 have been pretty ugly.

$2000 no strings attached? No jumping through hoops or nothing? Just 4 in a row?

i've played 9 and 10 man SNGs $3 and $6 ones and i've over trippled my money in 4 days of about 3 hours play each day. I cash a pretty high proportion of the time, 70% *edit* - 50% . I find them much more profitable than cash games.. just lost $10 with KK against AA :/ but thats pok3ry

yeah. i started playin online poker in febuary, as of now ive made close to $5000(just from online poker) from a $100 partypoker deposit and working my way up from $6 10 man sngs. i would have more but my parents made me stop playin til i turn 18 (15 more days )

ive played some ring games, (mostly this past week just cause i was bored, thought with the $100 i left myself after a big cash out i could mess around and try some short stack poker)
but i like sngs better online. if im ever playing ring its live at the casino or maybe with friends.
