Least interesting result items first. I played in four sit and gos last night, all on PokerStars, all of the "turbo" variety. Two of them were the new $105+9 limit, and the other two were $55+5 (one was a 2-table SNG). I took down first place in one $55+5 single, and took horrible beats on all three of the others to either get knocked out or ( Read more... )
