What, in the name of greek buggery, was SB thinking?

I know. I actually had quite a bit of respect for FT players until I saw someone call PF with 24s and then all in with an inside straight draw. What the bloody hell?

That was your first mistake. FT probably has more donks with no intention of thinking about their game than those who know what they're doing. It and PStars are the two most advertised and popular sites, so any random dude who feels like making a ton of cash in one night will find his way to either of those two sites, and proceed to play for short-term double-up luckbox action.

I dunno, I initially fond the SnGs harder at FTP than at iPoker and Pacific. However I've come 1st, 2nd and 2nd in my last 3 SnGs so I'm changing my mind a bit.
