the hand is fine if tim isnt a nit. and of course 45 man sngs are not included in this prop, thatd change the entire dynamic of the bet.

in regard to the much ballyhoed hand, the hand that i described happened exactly as i wrote. so tim, i did not see the hand that you posted. in my hand, gravy made a straight and in yours he made a boat. my apologies, so i guess when you're playing every sng available on the internet, you are bound to run 8's up against 9's from time to time.

because 5 table SNGs play differently than 1 table SNGs...45 people in a tournament create different tournament situations than 9 man tournaments. I would hope that this concept would be intuitive to most everyone thats ever put time into tournament poker.

Not to mention that STT stands for single table tournaments. If he was going to make a prop bet involving mtts he'd post it in MTTF not STTF

I think of them in the same vein because they do play fairly similarly...until you get to 200/400 and still have a full table.

edit for grammar

do they also have a very flat payout structure? Is it easy to steal ur way into the money?

[/ QUOTE ]It's not 'intuitive' because there is no inherent advantage in playing 45 person SNGs over of 9.

Is it really that egregious to interpret "25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge" as being able to play any $60 SNG tournament structure you want?

Well when it is posted on the Single Table Tournaments forum, yeah I think so.
