I think one of the most important factors of this bet is how the number of tables being played affects the quality of shorthanded played. Since there is a big jump in pay from 2nd to 1st(for a $27 SNG) I think that playing solid HU play may be more important than the volume of tables being played. I'll be interested to see how that aspect plays out.
Also, Good Luck and I hope you do this.

This would be a decent point if these were regular SNGs where you had 25+ BBs when you got to heads up play, but in turbos the blinds are so huge when you get heads up that the only consideration is whether to push or fold preflop.

OK, now that the challenge is started, I'll go ahead and say it. Am I missing something here? Mkgringo hasn't even made $10k in 5700 lifetime SNGs (ave. stake $23) and it looks like he's been pretty much breakeven over his last 1500 SNGs (probably when the effects of UIGEA wrecked the games). Even if he somehow hits 5% ROI he'd still have to play 7400 games.

I just don't see how he has any chance in this challenge unless he's been honing his game on another site and has been receiving a ton of teaching.

This happens to me at times. He probably entered one next to the turbo 27s by accident.
