Oh, anyone who thinks it is impossible to finish in the top 7 out of 45 in a Stars 3.25 or 6.50 45 man SNG close to 8 out of 10 times is just mistaken

No, I'm not mistaken, 78% cash is just isn't happening over a 2,500 sample size. But more than that, the notion that you take first place over 40% of the time (!) is beyond absurd, I don't care if it's play money. No MTT or SNG player with a significant sample size is anywhere remotely close to that and never will be.

It's not even close to feasible.

I don't think you could win 40% of a mix of 18 and 45 player tourneys, if every other player at every other table simply made random decisions on every hand, without ever looking at their cards. I don't think you could do it if you were guaranteed to be playing the 44 worst players on pokerstars in every single tournment.

If OP is legit, I appologize, but I think the claim is so primae facie unlikely as to deserve an assumption of untruth.
